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.

This is neither science nor a meme

But it does express a popular opinion which helps us all feel good about ourselves, and that's what really matters

This definitionally is a meme.

My pet hate is people who say things aren’t memes when they definitionally are.

Screenshots of twitter posts are a meme genre.

You may not like that fact but it’s true.

The scientific content is debatable I’ll give you that.

I hate cripto and all, but i almost hate more people posting just statements in what's suppose to be a meme community, not funny statements, no memes about politics, just text, bastardizing the point of a meme community, wich is to see... memes.
