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.

95% Alcohol(any kind, ethanol, isopropyl, methanol) is a cheap, highly effective, contact killer. Spray any bug with it and it will die. Either the alcohol kills it from the toxicity or from dehydration because the alcohol cleaned off its protective wax surface.
