Going out on a massive limb here, but didn't they lose because in the last round she made a really bad shot, cancelling his epic bullseye. Hes the prof and the postgrad. He is it all.

There's lots of other guys there that got ignored too. He's only famous because of the basic gear and whole steeze like he could replace Liam Neeson in the next Taken.

even in this photo he sorta looks like he's in an action movie playing the casual badass, it's not rocket science why everyone started talking about him

the guy's really handsome and looks like he's not even wearing hearing protection, quick maffs

I believe you're correct. The best kind of correct

No way, x is the best kind of x??

According to Hermes, technically correct is the best kind of correct.

They didn't lose. They won silver.

Silver is first in losing

"If you ain't first you're last!"

Alternatively:

"Hell, Bobby, I was high when I said that!"

You realize this is just a meme about sexism in science, right? Like why take it so literally?

[–] [email protected] 40 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It’s a bad meme. Nothing wrong with the topic or fighting against sexism in academia, but the context of the picture is literally the opposite of the message.

I also think making shit like this activity discredits the thing they're trying to draw attention to.

"Cats hate water, please view this example."

Wtf do you mean "canceing his epic bullseye"? That's not how it works.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yet it is. His wins were negated by her losses, they're on the same team.
