The Crystallography Conspiracy Files

What happens when you blend conspiracy theories with the pain of structural biology research? This masterpiece.

The truth about crystallography they don't want you to know: those diffraction patterns are just PhD students' tears crystallized under electron microscopes. That complex compound formula? Just keyboard smashing after the 47th failed crystallization attempt.

Nothing captures lab desperation quite like calling your field "VOODOO mathematics" while staring at the same protein crystal that refuses to diffract properly for the fifth consecutive month. At least the "Round Pyramid Scheme" is aptly named - that's where your career goes when you can't get publishable data.
