The physics term hierarchy has spoken! While "Radiation" and "Quantum" are busy squabbling over which one gets more butchered by the public, "Energy" just walks in wearing a dark cloak like the final boss of misused terminology.
If physics terms had a support group, these three would dominate the conversation. "Radiation" gets treated like it's always dangerous (it's not!), "Quantum" gets slapped onto everything from healing crystals to consciousness (please stop), but "Energy" wins the misuse championship by a landslide! From "aligning your energies" to "energy cleansing," this fundamental physics concept has been kidnapped by every pseudoscience imaginable!
Next time someone talks about transferring their energy to you, just remember: according to physics, that would require actual work... and probably some sweating. 🔬⚡
