The evolution of physics complexity in four panels of pure anxiety. We start with Newton's folksy "what goes up must come down" - physics a toddler could grasp. Then he formalizes it with acceleration due to gravity. By the third panel, he's flexing with his universal gravitation formula that terrorized generations of undergrads. But that bottom panel? Einstein's field equations of general relativity with those terrifying tensors. That's where physicists start nervously laughing while reaching for their anxiety medication. The progression perfectly captures why physics students develop eye twitches by senior year.
