Disciplinary loyalty Memes

Insults? Whatever. Criticize chemistry? Now you've crossed a line, buddy. Nothing triggers a scientist faster than trash-talking their field. We'll ignore personal attacks all day, but suggest our beloved discipline is worthless and suddenly we transform into rabid defenders of molecular honor.

Don't even get me started on what happens when you tell a physicist that gravity is "just a theory."
