This isn't the phrase egotistic or anything, but rather a random conversation i came up with my friends. We all know that people (and things) revolve around the world, but could one say that the world revolves around a person/thing? For example, if a car crashed into a wall, one could picture it as the car moving towards the wall, but from another perspective, one could view it as the wall moving toward a stationary car.
I know that in relativity, things must be in the same inertial frame, but the Earth is rotating, which isn't an intertial frame... so is it wrong to say the world revolves a person/thing?
(i'm not sure if this goes in general physics or relativity)
