A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
The reasoned par of my brain wholeheartedly agrees with you, and when I can convince myself to do so, I let them vibe. Unfortunately the reasoned part of my brain is powerless to stop the fight or flight response that happens when [spindly-legged creature] crosses my field of view. It simply happens.
If reasoning alone could overcome an otherwise unreasonable physiological response, then allergies wouldn't exist.
