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.

Peek and peak upsets me all the time too! "Duel wield" is another one. While we're at it, people who pronounce melee as Me Lee. It should sound like May Lay.

I loose my mind with this kind of thing too. Do these people have a screw lose? What kind of rational would a rationale person use to decide to just use similar looking words with different meanings?

It was almost painful to write that out actually, but don't worry I'll add it to the list of things to review in therapy 😂
