Ferrocene Memes

That moment when your ferrocene derivative starts looking suspiciously like Squidward's interpretive dance! The top shows a chemical reaction with a metal-centered compound sprouting multiple alkene arms, while the bottom is literally Squidward with his tentacles out looking EXACTLY like the molecular structure. Chemistry students everywhere are having flashbacks to drawing these ridiculous octopus-like structures in their notebooks. The iron atom is just sitting there in the middle like "yes, I am the star of this molecular performance!" This is what happens when chemists design molecules after watching too much SpongeBob!
