The infamous transition from Physics 1 to Physics 2 hits like a truck! One minute you're confidently calculating trajectories with buff Doge energy, all "F=ma" and predictable outcomes. The next you're wimpy Doge surrounded by probability clouds, wondering if Schrödinger's cat is judging your confusion. Classical physics: "Here's a formula, apply it, get exact answer, feel smart." Quantum physics: "Well yes, but actually no. The particle is everywhere and nowhere until you look at it, maybe, depending on its wave function, which collapses unless it doesn't, and everything is simultaneously certain and uncertain." Your brain on quantum mechanics is basically just a superposition of understanding and complete bewilderment. Welcome to Physics 2, where even Einstein threw up his hands and said "God doesn't play dice" (spoiler alert: turns out the universe totally does).
