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.

  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Oh gotcha. Still, there is something about the double k at the end that gives it some edge (a third k would have the opposite effect, to be clear)

I guess. Any word ending with ics ends with ikk in Norwegian basically. Ceramics - keramikk, electronics - elektronikk, etc.
