The ultimate scientific paradox! Two supposedly immutable laws of nature in direct conflict - cats landing on their feet (feline righting reflex) versus buttered toast landing butter-side down (Murphy's Law in action). This thought experiment is actually a hilarious spin on the classic "buttered cat paradox" that physicists joke about creating perpetual motion machines! In reality, both "laws" have actual physics explanations - cats use angular momentum and flexible spines to reorient mid-fall, while toast tends to make exactly half a rotation when falling from table height. The real experiment would just result in one confused cat and a very messy kitchen floor!
