The part that blows my mind is that light behaves as a wave only if you don't look at it too closely. If you attempt to measure the phenomenon more closely, light literally says "You're crazy, I've been a particle travelling on a fixed path this whole time." Then when you look away, it's back to making diffraction patterns.
It's like, you go down far enough into the fundamental nuts and bolts of the universe, and you eventually reach a point where God just starts fucking around with you. It's a wave! It's a particle! It's BOTH! Ha ha, figure that one out physicists!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
