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.

What the hell is that what it is? My mom has one too and I never realised that it's a vaccine scar

I haven't noticed mine in decades but we all had them growing up.

We also yearly got these pink tablets to chew that colored your teeth - darker meant you weren't doing a great job brushing your teeth.

Yep that is the old vaccine. It is still used in some poorer parts of the world as well.
