Relativity

Riding in the car, Nicholas: "Did you know that you can never be just behind another car or just in front of another car? You are always both behind and in front of them."

Eric: "How so?"

Nicholas: "If you think you are just in front of another car and you went all the way around the world, you are also be behind them."

Eric: "Who taught you this?"

Nicholas: "My brain."
