Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Do you always succumb to the need to publicly police people? The other person just voiced what I thought as well, that knowledge definitely isn't forever. Why not comment on the fallacy contained in the meme?

Because taking things literally that are not meant to be taken literally just makes you look like an obnoxious ass.

You may see me as an obnoxious ass, but it is just my autistic brain trying to make sense of it...

It is also a known way of comedy. Especially if you over analyze it to an absurd degree.
