Laplacian Memes

The math just got REAL spherical! This meme is playing on the classic "everyone's a gangster until..." format but with a quantum physics twist! 😂 When solving the Schrödinger equation for hydrogen atoms, physicists have to transform the Laplacian operator into spherical coordinates, and suddenly that innocent-looking ∆f turns into this terrifying multi-term monster with sines, partial derivatives, and enough subscripts to make you cry. It's basically the mathematical equivalent of thinking you're tough until you meet the final boss! No wonder physics students have nightmares about this transformation!
