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.

I'll wash petri dishes instead

AHEM. Ackshually petri-dishes are mostly made of plastic these days and discarded with the rest of the biohazardous waste... At least in microbiology labs.

Also I love the word autoclave.

That is indeed a soothing word.

"Kim wipe"

"Standardized cuvette"

"Parafilm"

"disposable pipette tips"

Like the -80c fridges, it just gives you comfort that nothing is going to go wrong.
