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.

Someday, buddy, someday. For now, just try not to break down at your job, like the rest of us.

No can do, somebody accidentally sent a reply all email to our entire region this morning and now everyone else feels responsible for telling them they fucked up, or for telling those people to stop responding to the first person.

Don’t forget insanely lucky and well off enough to afford a masters degree before you’re in your 30s.
