The eternal physics family feud captured in one shirt! For 100+ years, quantum physics and general relativity have been like siblings forced to share a bedroom—they fundamentally disagree on how the universe works at its core. Quantum mechanics handles the tiny subatomic world with probabilistic chaos, while relativity elegantly describes gravity and spacetime at cosmic scales. Despite thousands of physicists playing marriage counselor, we still haven't found a unified theory that makes both sides happy. String theory? Loop quantum gravity? Extra dimensions? The honeymoon phase never arrived. Meanwhile, experimental physicists are in the corner muttering "just give me something I can actually test in a lab, please."

Scientists inventing invisible stuff to save their theories is the ULTIMATE cosmic cover-up! 🔍 On the left, 19th century astronomers noticed Mercury's orbit was wonky, so rather than question Newton's gravity, they invented a phantom planet called "Vulcan" hiding between Mercury and the Sun. Spoiler alert: it didn't exist! Fast forward to today, and we're doing the SAME THING with dark matter! "Hmm, galaxies spin too fast for our calculations... quick, invent invisible mass that we can't detect directly!" The parallel is deliciously ironic - we'd rather conjure invisible matter than admit our physics heroes might need some tweaking. Science: where we make up stuff to avoid admitting we're wrong! *maniacal scientist laugh*
