Quantum Physics isn't the only thing I don't understand obviously, but the point is, when I come across something I don't understand it makes me uncomfortable. Why can't I figure it out? Why, even when I read a paragraph describing what it's about, do I either fall asleep half way through, or zone out? Unlike Will Smith's solution to the problem, I will have to come to grips there are things in this world I will never understand. Women; decaffeinated coffee; drivers who speed around you on the right then get in front of you only to stop and make a left hand turn at the next block. Now I will add quantum physics to the list.
I'd complain more on this subject, but I'm getting brain tired thinking about it. I need a nap.
Some questions for discussion:
What are your thoughts on quantum physics?
Do you believe little Tiffany deserved to die? (See video below).
What things do you have problems understanding?
I don't understand quantum physics either. The only science I understand is earth and space science. This made me think of something though...did you ever watch the show Quantum Leap?
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at the "Women; decaffeinated coffee" comment.. I love coffee but the caffeine doesn't do me good, so decaf it is! :)
I have seen Quantum Leap and I was thinking on finding something about that to rant about for Q. But I have another TV show up for ranting later on. I'll my TV rant for that.
DeleteI don't "science" very well. If I applied myself, I could. I took chemistry twice and hated it both times (don't ask, long story!) I'm not sure Tiffany deserved to die, but I agree with Will that she was about to start something. What 8yo reads Quantum Physics?
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, that's one of my favourite scenes from Men In Black. I suppose if I really applied myself, I'd finally get Quantum Physics. There is just so many other things I'm trying to learn.
DeleteThis ought to clear things ups. From Wikipedia.
ReplyDelete"Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics, or quantum theory) is a fundamental branch of physics which deals with physical phenomena at nanoscopic scales, where the action is on the order of the Planck constant."
Understand now? :)
I think my brain just melted.
DeleteThanks for sharing. LOL
Must analyse.....quantum physics does not compute....Error, Error, sparks flying..... must analyse, running necessary diagnostic programes, OMG I am imperfect!!! LOL! I must sterilize...Error!
ReplyDeleteYep, kinda sounds like my brain as I was preparing this r.a.n.t.
DeleteI actually like quantum mechanics. Not that I presume to understand it. You're totally right: it makes the brain ache. But the concepts are intriguing to them. My dystopian series is based on quantum physics concepts, so I have fun with it. :D
ReplyDeleteSounds interesting. I may have to check that out and see how you work that in.
DeleteHa ha! Too funny. My brain doesn't take in Quantum physics or mechanics or anything quantum like that, maybe a leap? Lisa, co-host AtoZ 2015, @ http://www.lisabuiecollard.com
ReplyDeleteNext year, Quantum Leap will be my Q word for sure.
DeleteVisiting from A/Z :) I don't understand quantum physics myself or simple directions to put together furniture LOL :)
ReplyDeletebetty
Do you shop at IKEA?
DeleteI'm so glad you're in the same boat with me this time!
ReplyDeleteAnd we don't need to know Quantum Physics to build that boat either.
DeleteSome things we don't understand but we also don't want to understand, either.
ReplyDeleteIgnorance is bliss.
DeleteHello there.
ReplyDeleteI never liked science, biology or physics when I was in school. I prefer to keep things simplified.

Science doesn't scare me so much. It's always neat to see how things work.
