Behold the legendary spherical cow in its natural habitat—mounted on a physicist's wall! This is the physical manifestation of the famous "assume a spherical cow" simplification used in theoretical physics problems. When reality gets too complicated, just approximate that cow as a perfect sphere in a vacuum and ignore those pesky details like legs, digestive systems, and the laws of biology. Physics students everywhere are having flashbacks to homework problems starting with "Consider a spherical cow of uniform density..." Simplification at its finest—because who needs accurate models when you can have elegant equations?
