Stomping a goomba in Super Mario Brothers, that is, killing a virtual "person".
Eating literally anything, ie, killing a real living creature, plant or animal.

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

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