The Chemistry Civil War: No Math, No Problem

The eternal chemistry civil war continues! Physical and computational chemists look at organic synthesis schemes like Gaston looking at Belle's book—completely baffled by the lack of equations. "How can you read this? There's no math!" they scream while clutching their differential equations and quantum models. Meanwhile, organic chemists are happily drawing hexagons and arrows, blissfully unbothered by the absence of calculus. It's like watching someone try to read a novel written in emojis—technically it's the same language, but the dialects couldn't be more different!

The Physics Department Hierarchy

The eternal physics department hierarchy in one brutal takedown! Experimental physicists build intricate contraptions to measure quantum wobbles and cosmic jiggles, while theoretical physicists scribble equations and mumble about 11-dimensional manifolds. The experimentalists are basically just high-precision engineers creating reality-checking machines for the theorists who'd otherwise float away into mathematical abstraction. It's the perfect scientific symbiosis - one group makes fancy toys, the other group makes fancy thoughts, and together they advance human knowledge while passive-aggressively competing for department funding.
