In Response To: Physics people... (Vid Boi)

Deceleration is a stupid concept.

Since forward and backward are, as has been said above, abstract concepts, acceleration, as a vector, is completely relative to the observer. If I am watching you run away from me, you could be accelerating negatively. If I am watching you run towards me, you could be accelerating positively. Or vice versa. It really doesn't matter, as long as you are consistent.
