The desperate logic of a researcher who's been rejected 17 times. For those unacquainted with the academic publishing hierarchy, Nature is one of the most prestigious scientific journals with an acceptance rate that makes getting into Harvard look like joining a grocery store loyalty program. The wordplay here is exquisite - physically throwing papers into nature versus getting published in Nature. I've personally considered mailing my data to Science by stuffing it into a bottle and throwing it into the ocean. Rejection letter arrived faster somehow.
