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.

This is from the book Science Made Stupid, published in 1985, and it shares the same space in my heart as The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Thanks for giving this reference! The book is out of print, but high-resolution scans can be downloaded here for free, which is endorsed by the original author apparently.

Love Hitchikers Guide (every book) so thanks for the top tip on Science Made Stupid. Big love from the UK where we need everyone to read these books
