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.

Humans are largely human because we are terrible "one-trial learners." We twist the tiger's tail until it turns on us. We don't learn. We come back to twist the tiger's tail some more.

Twist the tigers tale 10 times and get bitten.

Most creatures: don't twist the tigers tail.

Us: ...what about 9 twists...?
