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.

There is a German word for this: Erbsenzähler (pea counter), someone who is overly rigerous, exact or cheap.

The Danish word is fly fucker - somehow the Danes predicted banana fly geneticists.
