Time Machine Construction Oversight

Just your typical Tuesday in the lab. You build a time machine, run a "quick test," and suddenly you're floating in deep space because you forgot Earth orbits the Sun at 67,000 mph while the entire solar system hurtles through the galaxy at 448,000 mph. Rookie mistake. Next time maybe start with sending a banana five minutes into the future instead of your entire body to who-knows-when. On the bright side, your lab report will be extremely concise: "Experiment successful. Earth missing. Send help."

The duality of the scientific mind on full display! Dismisses astrology as "made up nonsense" but immediately gets excited about the ideal gas law (PV = nRT). The title nods to Van der Waals, who actually improved this equation to account for real gases because—plot twist—the ideal gas law is also an idealized model that doesn't perfectly describe reality. Scientists: rejecting one set of approximations while worshipping another since 1873. The only difference? One has math.

Engineering at its finest! When you round π to 3.1 and pretend planes are perfect spheres with zero air resistance, you've officially unlocked god-tier approximation skills! The enormous brain in this meme represents the sheer galaxy-brain confidence it takes to make these wild simplifications and still expect your aircraft to fly. Real engineers know that π is actually 3.14159... and planes are decidedly non-spherical, but hey—close enough for government work, right? This is why we double-check our calculations before boarding!

Look at this Olympic shooter proving physics can be WILD! In objects with weird shapes or uneven density distribution, the center of mass can indeed exist in empty space outside the physical object. Picture a boomerang or donut—their centers of mass float in mid-air! This shooter's perfect balance demonstrates this principle in action. Next time someone tells you something's physically impossible, just wink and whisper "non-convex objects" like the mad genius you are!

Forget asking about your Virgo rising or Taurus moon! The real personality test is which fundamental particle you identify with! Are you a hefty top quark weighing in at a massive 173.1 GeV/c², making you the heavyweight champion of the Standard Model? Or perhaps you're more of a bottom quark at 4.18 GeV/c² - still substantial but a bit more modest? These subatomic particles have actual measurable properties unlike those silly star charts! Next time someone asks for your sign at a party, hit 'em with your quark flavor and watch their confused face as you cackle maniacally! 🧪⚛️

Einstein's rolling in his grave right now. The twin paradox is absolutely a real paradox in special relativity where a twin traveling at near light-speed returns younger than their Earth-bound sibling. The "felt accelerated" argument completely misses that acceleration is precisely what resolves the paradox—it breaks the symmetry between reference frames! This is like saying "Schrödinger's cat isn't a paradox because the box is opaque." Sure, buddy. Next you'll tell me gravity is just a theory.
