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.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

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

My hypotesis is that it needs to be absurdly funny for the trick to work. After 2 or 3 uses, it loses the absurdity so it doesn't work anymore.

edit: after another ~10 uses it gains absurdity again.
