I went onto the Google and searched for it...
I didn't get the answer I wanted so...
I researched it...
That may be so, but do your own research.
Have begun? We've got philosophers of science going back millennia, and history of science for at least half a century.

Hmm yes, red dye #2
Research frequently leads to knowledge. And some people don’t like that.
We've had research on research for decades if not centuries. I don't get the meme :|
it was originally posted in SurrealMemes, i think just as an absurdism piece

That past research on research was retracted.
