Warning: Quantum Mechanics is like trying to find your keys in a messy drawer. Except instead of keys, you're trying to find the exact position and momentum of a tiny particle. And instead of the drawer, you're in a never-ending nightmare of probabilities.
Heisenberg says: "I don't know where it is, but I'm pretty sure it's somewhere in the vicinity of 50% chance."
So, let's start with the basics:
Wave-Particle Duality: It's like being a ballerina and a basketball at the same time. Except instead of a pretty tutu, you're wearing a tiny, fluffy particle cloud.
Superposition: It's like being in multiple places at once. Except instead of being on a beach somewhere exotic, you're just stuck in an infinite loop of "maybe I'm here, maybe I'm there, maybe I'm somewhere else entirely".
