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
- Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
- Keep it rooted (on topic).
- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

I don't get it.
Nopes.... my ass is fuck proof. So I prefer you explain the OP.
I think they're saying he counts with his fingers facing himself so it looks like swearing. My mother does this when talking to me and i genuinely have to stop her every time. It's only when you do it in a conversatiin to someone that it's bothersome, of course
I do count in the same manner. Who would count with fingers facing someone else?? Ain't we becoming too full of etiquette?? I guess thats a lot.
Hmm maybe I'm wrong about the meaning of the post then, it's just what i got from the images
Yeah, the post is misplaced n absurd
Yeah, it's in the wrong community imo. Not saying it's not about science, but there's multiple Linux meme subs this could be on where people might actually think it's funny.
If I'd posted in Linux memes... how many people would know who Ed Witten is?
Who's that?
Famous string theorist
Guitar or violin?
