The Coriolis Force

Antipixel’s Jeremy Hedley loves the vaguely comical natural phenomena:

[S]now always makes me think of chicks leaving a nest. Those little whirlpools that form in creeks are funny, too, in a dog-chasing-its-tail way, and the coriolis force always reminds me a great-aunt who rearranged the furniture in her living room and forever after would get up and walk towards the fireplace, intending to go into the kitchen.
