Why do ocean currents and general wind patterns go in opposite circular patterns above and below the equator?

For anything small (like a bathtub), it doesn't - that's an urban legend. The theory is that coriolis forces makes water swirl one way in one hemisphere and the opposite way in the other - but that force is quite utterly negligable on small amounts of liquid or gas - such as your bathtub. The effect DOES work at the scale of ocean currents and hurricanes. Hurricanes in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise, those in the southern hemisphere (which are properly called "Typhoons") rotate clockwise. The coriolis force comes about because the earth rotates. If you think about a wind blowing south from somewhere far into the northern hemisphere, as the wind travels southwards, the planet rotates from west to east causing the air to be spun around in a counter-clockwise direction. The opposite happens in the southern hemisphere.
