How Else Could It Get There?

When computational chemists brag about Density Functional Theory (DFT) using electron density instead of wave functions, only to discover the dirty little secret—the density itself comes from wave functions! The cat's shocked expression perfectly captures that moment of existential crisis when you realize your entire PhD is built on a mathematical ouroboros. It's like claiming you don't eat animals while ordering a burger with extra cheese.

The irony is just *chef's kiss* here. People mock crystal enthusiasts for being "unscientific" while literally every digital device in their pocket depends on quartz crystal oscillators to function. These piezoelectric crystals vibrate at precise frequencies when electricity is applied, creating the heartbeat that keeps your CPU's clock ticking at exactly the right rate. Without these crystals, your smartphone would be about as useful as a paperweight with a fancy screen. Next time someone scoffs at "crystal energy," just point to their phone and smile smugly. Science doesn't care about your mockery—it's too busy using crystals to power the modern world.

Clearly, the answer is D: None of them. They're all stationary drawings on a piece of paper. The directional arrow is merely a vector notation indicating the reference frame, not actual motion. If you selected A, B, or C, I regret to inform you that your observational skills have failed the most basic physics test: distinguishing between representation and reality. Next, we'll determine if you can tell the difference between a real black hole and a JPEG of one.

Patrick Star giving a surprisingly correct etymology lesson is peak scientific comedy. The kilogram is indeed 1000 grams, with 'kilo' meaning 1000. The real punchline? The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) representative just nodding along as if they're shocked a starfish understands basic SI units. Meanwhile, metrologists worldwide are having existential crises because the kilogram was redefined in 2019 using Planck's constant instead of a physical prototype. But sure, let's celebrate Patrick getting the prefix right.

The bell curve of understanding electricity is too real! At both ends of the IQ spectrum, people are like "electricity is magic" but for completely different reasons. The low IQ folks haven't figured it out, while the high IQ geniuses have gone so deep they've circled back to mysticism. Meanwhile, the average person in the middle is just parroting "it's flowing electrons" without truly grasping the quantum weirdness happening. The deeper you go into electrical theory, the more it starts feeling like sorcery again. Those 34% on either side of the peak know what's up!

The scientific hierarchy in its full glory! Physicists strutting around like they're the purest science ("It's nice to be on top!"), while mathematicians are so abstract they don't even notice anyone else exists. 🤓 But flip the script to complexity and suddenly everyone's defensive about their turf! Sociologists dealing with unpredictable humans, psychologists ignoring consciousness because it's TOO HARD, and physicists perking up at the mention of "small-scale interactions" like quantum gossip they can't resist. Meanwhile, mathematicians are off in their own dimension, manipulating numbers without units like some kind of reality-free wizards. The ultimate scientific family feud where everyone thinks their problems are the hardest!
