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.

Never seen this applied to South America before. Pretty sure they'd be just as pissed off if you called them Americans as Canadians are if you call them Americans, even if America is in their continents name.

Shit.
That was (unintentionally) very rude of me. Sorry South America.
