This sacred document exposes the dark arts physicists have been hiding for centuries! The right to "squint" at complex problems? That's just code for "I have no idea what I'm doing but will pretend otherwise." My personal favorite is the divine right to call anything we don't understand "unphysical" — basically the academic equivalent of taking your ball and going home when you're losing.

And let's appreciate the beautiful hierarchy where physicists get to look down on "lower scientists" while mumbling gibberish when cornered. We're not making things up — we're "inventing fictitious forces" and "choosing convenient initial conditions." It's not laziness, it's the "principle of general triviality!"

Next time your calculations don't add up, just declare dimensional inconsistency irrelevant because you're only interested in "order of magnitude." Physics: where being approximately wrong is exactly right!
