Aspirin Memes

Chemistry lab gone spectacularly wrong! This meme references the TV show Breaking Bad where chemistry teacher Walter White (aka "Mr. White") becomes a methamphetamine manufacturer. In real organic chemistry labs, aspirin synthesis is a common undergraduate experiment because it's relatively safe and educational. But apparently these cartoon villains took a WILD detour from the lab manual! The synthesis pathways for aspirin and methamphetamine are completely different - one's an over-the-counter pain reliever, the other's a highly controlled substance. Talk about failing your lab practical with style! This is basically what happens when you skip the pre-lab reading and just wing it. 🧪💥
