Fire Goes Spherical In Space

The most scientifically accurate Venn diagram doesn't exi— Oh wait, here it is! Nothing unites the STEM fields quite like their mutual disdain for each other. Physicists mock engineers who can't win Nobel Prizes, mathematicians scoff at both while being utterly incomprehensible to normal humans, and everyone agrees chemists are inferior (except chemists, who are too busy making things explode to notice). The beautiful irony? They all desperately need each other to make actual scientific progress. It's like a dysfunctional academic family where everyone thinks they're the smart one.

That innocent moment when you think physics is just about cool black holes, but then the mathematical stairway to hell reveals itself. Started with "ooh, space is neat!" and suddenly you're drowning in partial derivatives at 3 AM, questioning your life choices. The academic equivalent of opening a bag of chips and finding calculus-flavored vegetables inside. Trust me, even Stephen Hawking probably muttered "what have I done" while staring at his first differential equation.

The evolution of physics students is a wild ride! First semester: "Yay, I can calculate how apples fall with Newton's cute little gravity equation!" Then senior year hits and suddenly you're staring at Einstein's field equations like "What fresh mathematical nightmare is this?!" The jump from Newton's tidy F=G(m₁m₂/r²) to those tensor monstrosities with their fancy Greek symbols is the physics equivalent of going from riding a tricycle to piloting the Space Shuttle. Your brain isn't just expanding—it's being warped across spacetime itself!

The desperate final moments of a thermodynamics exam - where precision goes to die and first-order approximations become your only hope. Taylor expansions let you simplify complex functions by chopping off all those pesky higher-order terms. Sure, it's mathematically questionable, but when time's running out, you make the executive decision that everything is linear enough. The dark side of calculus isn't creating chaos; it's creating suspiciously tidy answers on your exam paper.

Suddenly deprived of digital distractions, you discover your latent Feynman-level genius. The blackboard covered in orbital mechanics is just you trying to calculate how long until the nearest charging station opens. Turns out your mother's "you'd be so smart if you just put down that phone" prophecy had merit after all. Now if only you could remember where you left your charger instead of deriving planetary motion equations from first principles.

The image shows a photoshopped horizon with famous landmarks from around the world—the Statue of Liberty, Eiffel Tower, Egyptian pyramids, and skyscrapers—all visible in one impossible view. This is poking fun at flat Earth believers who can't explain why we can't see across continents if the Earth is supposedly flat! In reality, the Earth's curvature prevents us from seeing beyond about 3 miles at sea level. The meme creator basically said "Sorry I Just Had To" troll the flat-Earthers with some visual evidence that would exist in their reality but somehow doesn't. Checkmate, conspiracy theorists! Your move, Flat Earth Society—explain why I need a plane ticket to see the pyramids when they should be visible from my backyard with a good pair of binoculars!
