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.

Here's a listicle of other inventors who grew to hate or regret their inventions. The creator of Comic Sans is on there, lolz

Anything from the inventor of the AK-47 regretting the deaths good invention caused and how it doesn't line up with his Orthodox beliefs, to the guy who decided that two slashes should follow an internet protocol saying it wasn't necessary; what a list!
