The Best Kind Of Correct

The medical conspiracy theorist's manifesto has arrived! This meme brilliantly satirizes anti-science rhetoric by mocking how conspiracy theorists view medical education. ECG readings? Just "stupid triangles"! Protein structures? Complete mystery! Vaccines? Obviously "free autism"! 🤪 And that ridiculous medical term at the bottom? Pure gibberish designed to make fun of how conspiracy folks think doctors just make up complicated words to sound smart. It's basically the medical equivalent of "I did my research on YouTube University!" The meme perfectly captures the absurdity of rejecting centuries of medical science because rectal exams are uncomfortable and biology textbooks use illustrations. GENIUS!

The molecular structure shown is oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid with that distinctive double bond kink in the middle. The caption "i think i might be" combined with the molecule creates the punchline "i think i might be... a fatty acid." Classic self-deprecating chemistry humor where the molecular structure itself delivers the punchline. Just like oleic acid's structure determines its properties, chemists' jokes determine their social lives - both equally unsaturated.

Just your typical butterfly effect scenario where a time traveler adjusts a chair and suddenly we've got silicon-based lifeforms instead of carbon-based ones. This is why my lab has a strict "don't touch anything" policy for our time machine interns. The smallest perturbation in initial conditions leads to completely different evolutionary outcomes—classic chaos theory. Next thing you know, you move a pencil and return to find humans with exoskeletons debating whether organic chemistry should be renamed "carbon-based curiosities."

Your body begging your liver to create glucose from scratch while you refuse to leave the comfort of your bed. The liver's just sitting there like "I didn't sign up for this metabolic nonsense." Gluconeogenesis is literally your body's emergency glucose production system when you're starving, but apparently getting up for a sandwich is too much effort. Peak evolutionary laziness meets biochemical desperation.

The perfect evolutionary biology pun doesn't exi— Oh wait, here it is! This meme brilliantly plays on "genetic drift" - a real evolutionary mechanism where gene frequencies change randomly in small populations - by pairing it with someone wearing headphones (audio drift) and the phrase "evolving, just backwards." Unlike natural selection, genetic drift happens by chance rather than adaptation. So claiming something is "evolving backwards" is hilariously contradictory to evolutionary theory while perfectly capturing how genetic drift can sometimes reduce genetic diversity in ways that seem counterproductive. Basically, evolution's chaotic neutral cousin that biologists can't stop talking about at parties.

Taxonomic naming conventions in biology: where descriptive accuracy meets scientific thirst. That second researcher is clearly gunning for something more exotic than "Long Legs." Probably the same person who gave us Boops boops (an actual fish) and Turdus maximus (a thrush). The struggle between literal description and making your colleagues snicker during conference presentations is the true unspoken battle in taxonomy.
