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.

Not for the same reasons, but "also no, sorry. Still going with Gulf of Mexico."

I can meet you halfway and pronounce Mexico correctly, but that is beyond my abilities and I'm not ashamed to admit it lol.

You are doing it the wong way. The wight way to do it is to acknowledge the victory of the colonizers. Take Denali for example.
