Run For Your Lives, It's Centrifugal Force!
Physics students running for their lives the moment centrifugal forces enter the chat! The panic is real because technically, centrifugal force isn't even a "real" force—it's what physicists call a "fictitious force" that only appears in rotating reference frames. That's why your professor gets that eye twitch whenever someone mentions it. The proper term is "centripetal force" pointing inward, but try explaining that to Squidward as he's sprinting away from his laptop!

We Are Cursed With Knowledge
The eternal physics debate that breaks friendships! 😂 The left guy is SCREAMING that centrifugal force is real (we've all been there), while the chill dude knows it's just a "fictitious" force that appears when you're in a rotating reference frame. It's like arguing whether the floor is pushing you up or gravity is pulling you down - it depends on how you look at it! The third guy? That's what your brain looks like after taking Classical Mechanics. You'll never look at a merry-go-round the same way again!
