I Will Never Be The Same
Poor guy just discovered the speed of light is constant in all reference frames! Einstein's special relativity claims another victim. The mental breakdown is inevitable when you realize everything you thought about time and space is fundamentally wrong. Physics grad students are carried out of relativity lectures like this at least twice a semester. The equation |C| = |R| represents the constant speed of light regardless of the observer's reference frame—a concept so counterintuitive it's sent countless physicists to therapy since 1905.

Post-Physics Exam Nature Therapy
Nothing says "I've survived academic trauma" quite like fondling a leaf after a physics exam that just violated the Geneva Convention. The universe may be governed by elegant equations, but your professor clearly believes they should be delivered with the clarity of ancient hieroglyphics written in invisible ink. That brief moment when you question if gravity is even real anymore because your GPA just defied it by plummeting faster than a lead balloon. Nature: the ultimate therapist that doesn't charge $200/hour to tell you that, yes, you should have studied more.

We Don't Talk About Pluto
The astronomical community's greatest trauma captured in one image. In 2006, astronomers committed the celestial equivalent of disowning a child when they demoted Pluto from planet to "dwarf planet." Sixteen years later and the wound still hasn't healed. Every astronomy department has that one professor who gets misty-eyed at the mere mention of the icy outcast. The rest of us just awkwardly change the subject like we're avoiding talk of a family scandal. "Nine planets? No no, we have eight now. What? No, I don't know any 'Pluto.' Must be thinking of someone else's solar system."
