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.

If you just add "hi' to the beginning then it's a perfect middle. "Hello, who is this?" Nothing is better than letting it go to voicemail, but sometimes you're in a situation where you might be expecting a call from an unknown number
