A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Where's the fucking list Donny? Give us the list you fat orange fuck. We know you're on it, and so do you. How did you think this was going to pan-out, dumbass?
Never understood the deal with q tips. Like, just don't shove it all the way to your eardrum and don't push wax inside?
Paramedics hate methamphetamine. And alcohol. And high voltage electrical current.
But we love people who injure themselves creatively.
Funeral Homes hate the Government.
They are incredibly rude to the families receiving financial assistance, it takes 3 months for them to pay us, and did you know that if you don't have a will they cut your step-children out of the process entirely?
We had one gentleman in our care whose only living family was his step-daughter. Because there were no blood relatives and no will the Public Guardian took control of his disposition and the step-daughter had no say in anything that happened with him. Wasn't allowed to keep a portion of the ashes, the Funeral Director had to fight just to allow the step-daughter a brief final visitation.
This is also true for children under 18. Your 17 year old child has no say in your disposition if you have no other living relatives.
Have a will people, if for no other reason than to allow your loved ones to decide how they will grieve rather than some indifferent bureaucrat.
Software devs hate users
Software devs also hate UX/UI Designers.
And Product Owners.
And Scrum Masters.
And Software Architects.
And Security/Compliance Managers.
And QA Testers.
And worst of all... Software devs.
For lawyers? The Dunning-Kruger effect.
That's the enemy of anyone with any specialization
School bus drivers hate landscapers. And Amazon delivery drivers, but at least those fuckers move quickly.
We also hate children but I probably shouldn't admit that publicly.
Anyone using a phone hates clankers.
There's one automated system I need to call regularly at work that does not give me the option of dialing numbers and forces me to speak to it. It lists the options it can understand, but I can't just press a number to move on. Then it asks me to say and spell my first name, then say my last name (which it guesses the spelling of incorrectly) and pretends to type while it's processing. Why are we doing this?
Arborists hate Bradford pear trees. They’re the ones that have white flowers and smell like cum. That’s not even why we hate them though.
I wrote a mobile app years ago for a company that surveyed power lines to figure out what trees had to be cut away. They gave me a list of something like 800 tree species and I was like "do you guys really know what all these trees look like?" They did, it was a very impressive knowledge set.
A fun fact about power lines in rural areas: property owners generally get compensated monetarily when their trees have to be trimmed for this, and the amount they get is dependent on the species of tree. So the surveyors would usually find all kinds of incredibly exotic shit planted directly under the lines, basically a cash crop for people living in the middle of nowhere. This is probably a huge and under-appreciated factor in the spread of invasive species.
That's gorgeous, I love the unintended consequences
IT people hate computers.
IT people hate computers.
IT people hate users. IT people hate other IT people. We're just a surly lot.
actual work.
SLTs hate pacifiers. They're horrible for a child's teeth, leads to costantly open mouths, are bad for posture etc.. Most patients' parents who come into therapy are good about weaning their kids but some don't and don't know about the harm either
What does SLT mean?
Speech and Language Therapist
or Swine, Lettuce, Tomato for a type of sandwich
Psychoanalysts hate those blotchy black & white images of my mother's pussy giving birth to my father who is wielding a knife with my name written along the hilt. "Stop bringing these fucking drawings in here!" she yells. God forbid a man have hobbies.
Proctologists hate things without a flared base.
"An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but not this way!"
