I hate that the AI slop that copied this style is ruining my ability to enjoy the original

Thank God this meme was muted. I had my volume on max and that mouse would have blown out my eardrums.
But seriously, please just spend the 10 seconds it takes to reverse image search and find a better copy, or ideally the original so you can link to the creator's post.

I find the unbalanced microfuge triggering.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
This is the first thing I saw. I'm so triggered. I have a broken centerfuge lid on my desk rn that unbalanced everything for years. I think I'm going to keep it to remind me that "this too shall pass."
I got this vibe from fridge. One of the reasons I often put some frozen hornets in those, no packaging. Deters people from doing stupid things.
I'm glad it's not just me
You can tell this is accurate because there are no brown people involved.
Nah, top left is totally one of them hardcore STEM ladies from Uruguay
They're all in the lab working ridiculously long hours.
all you had to do was follow the god-damn experimental design, CJ
Who's the bigger villain: Trump or Reviewer #2?
Reviewer 2 didn't read my paper and makes it my problem. Trump didn't read a book in his life and makes it the world's problem.
Reviewer #2, he's in it for the love of the game, Trump is doing this for money
Parafilm representation! I love that stuff. I totally, absolutely didn't used to completely mummify samples we sent away to the miserable dicks at our sister lab...
I love the stuff. There are so many tools I use that I'd love at home, parafilm is one of them. The other is a hot plate/magnetic stir bar I'd use for soup/cooking.
They are awful for cooking, believe me, I have a home lab.
Induction hobs are great for lab though, except for glass vessels, of course.
I just love the feeling of when it stretches.
This would make a great sequel to Bully
~~downvote for ai slop~~
i was wrong
i apologize and rescind my downvote
How so? I dont think this is AI, nor is your comment bringing anything even if it was.

~~my comment brings attention to the fact that its low effort garbage.~~
i was wrong
You comment just brings attention to the fact that you didn't even look at the signature in the picture and look up the artist.
now i have
i apologize
You're forgiven, lovely. 💚
Now REPENT
I don't see any compression artifacts and sound icon in bottom right is well done. Also there is the signature from artist.
Death to ai images
what makes you think this is ai?
Vibes, mostly
not the same guy, but bottom-right image has inconsistencies in how one would usually render water.
the bottom puddle covers the line it goes over from, while the top puddle doesn't
This aint AI bud, someone already provided source website and also look at the text on the parafilm. Image models are getting much better at text but all that small text on the parafilm packaging is too good for ai. Also on the parafilm it has the creators website written out.
