Lorentzian Memes

Every physicist's nightmare! The supervisor demands a Gaussian fit for that beautiful bell curve, completely ignoring the long tails that scream "I'm a Lorentzian distribution!" It's like forcing a square peg into a round hole, but with mathematical violence. That R² value is probably hiding somewhere in the basement with the other statistical atrocities. Nothing says "I manipulated my data" quite like forcing the wrong distribution model just because it looks prettier in the presentation. The pain in that final panel is the universal language of grad students everywhere sacrificing statistical integrity for their advisor's arbitrary demands.
