Rookie Mistake

The career trajectory of physics students depicted as a skateboarding park is painfully accurate. Start as an ambitious Indian student, pursue physics with youthful optimism, finish your Masters while still clinging to academic dreams, then watch as gravity and reality hit. That Theory PhD? Just another trick before you inevitably slide into becoming a Software Engineer—where all physicists apparently go to die. The universal conservation law of career paths: enthusiasm transforms into resignation with minimal energy loss. The rake-to-face transformation is just *chef's kiss* perfect symbolism for what the job market does to your theoretical aspirations.

The universe is basically just hydrogen having an existential crisis! This pie chart shows the cosmic truth - 74% hydrogen, 25% helium, and a measly 1% "other" (that's us and everything we care about). Meanwhile, the periodic table reveals the brutal reality: hydrogen and helium are the simple elements just vibing in space, while the rest of us complex elements are just... complicated mental illnesses. Gold, silver, carbon? Just spicy hydrogen with extra problems! Next time someone asks what you're made of, just say "mostly hydrogen with severe commitment issues." 💫

Einstein just rolled over in his grave so fast he generated enough energy to power a small city! Someone decided to "improve" the most famous equation in physics by adding an AI term. E = mc² + AI ε*φ Because clearly, what relativity was missing all along was some random AI exponents! Next up: gravity is actually caused by ChatGPT hallucinations and black holes are just where the universe ran out of tokens. I bet this person also thinks you can download more RAM.

The Venn diagram of academic existential crises. Physics majors spend three pages proving one equation while questioning if they're actually smart. Philosophy majors write 379 pages to prove 1+1=2 while questioning if anyone else is smart. Both share a love for Greek symbols, logical reasoning, and the crushing realization that being smart doesn't pay the bills. At least they can bond over their mutual search for truth while staring blankly at the void of post-graduation employment prospects.

Ever wondered why those squiggly Greek symbols make mathematicians either cackle maniacally or curl up in the fetal position? This chart exposes the REAL meanings behind those innocent-looking letters! From π meaning "this math is either stupidly simple or completely impossible" to ω warning "you are going to DIE here among these equations," it's basically a decoder ring for mathematical trauma! My personal favorite is γ going "ZOOM PEW PEW PEW [SPACE NOISES] ZOOOM!" because clearly that's what gamma rays would sound like if equations could talk. And let's not forget Ξ trying to establish diplomatic relations with Earth mathematicians. The aliens have been communicating through calculus textbooks this whole time! No wonder math homework feels like torture—it's an interplanetary intelligence test!

The mere existence of P-Chem (Physical Chemistry) is enough to trigger existential dread in every science student. That moment when you realize you've signed up for a class that combines the worst parts of physics and chemistry into one torturous package. Students don't just fail P-Chem—P-Chem fails the concept of human happiness. The emotional damage is so real that even years later, PhD holders wake up in cold sweats mumbling about Schrödinger equations and thermodynamic free energy. It's not a class, it's a rite of passage that leaves psychological scars deeper than any lab accident could.
