Behold, the eternal divide between mathematicians and physicists! While mathematicians drown you in partial derivatives and vector-valued functions that would make your grandmother weep, physicists just point at some apples and say "swirly things go swoosh." And yet somehow, both got A's in their classes. This is why physicists can explain quantum mechanics to their dates while mathematicians are still trying to define what a "date" is using set theory. The irony? They're both technically correct—one is just more likely to be invited back to parties.
