At school I had crazy science teachers
just like this guy.
They were the best teachers I ever had.

My best science teacher was the one who gave us the drugs talk.
"Pay no attention to stories about how [LSD] will make you see pink elephants and all that; they're not true.
On the other hand, when I was walking home after a rave one night I stepped on a Mars bar wrapper. It told me to fuck off."
ed: That video seemed to go by really quickly. I can't wait to try out emptying a bottle that way.

I thought centrifugal force didn't exist?
We were always taught it was centripetal acceleration acting on a mass, and the reaction in the string gives an apparent force.
Probably why he kept referring to it as 'so-called' centrifugal force.

It emerges
when you use a rotating frame of reference.
Which is a (possibly) clever thing to say that I don't really understand, but stole from XKCD...

The point is this phantom force feels real enough when it's smearing the fine paste that used to be you evenly across the inside edge of a centrifuge.

It depends on your frame of reference I believe. If the FoR is rotating with the system, then the force is centrifugal. If the FoR is an inertial one, it's centripetal.
Edit: Yeah, essentially what FB's xkcd link says. Should probably refresh before commenting next time.
