This Can't Be Real

This Can't Be Real
Someone's definitely having fun with scientific terminology here! What you're looking at is a classic example of made-up "scientific" nonsense that perfectly mimics the tone of actual biology textbooks. The "horngus," "scungle," and "dillsack (the nutte sac)" are completely fabricated terms applied to what appears to be an actual dogfish embryo. Real marine biologists are currently screaming internally. It's like someone crashed a biology conference wearing a lab coat made of construction paper and nobody stopped them. The citation "[77]" is the chef's kiss of academic parody - making this absurdity look properly referenced!

The Great Chemical Deception

The Great Chemical Deception
The great chemical deception has been exposed! What we've been led to believe are groundbreaking reactions in scientific stock photos are actually just food coloring, water, and the theatrical fog machine of science—dry ice. Real chemists are facepalming everywhere because actual chemical reactions rarely look this Instagram-worthy. Most real lab work involves clear liquids turning slightly less clear, or maybe changing from colorless to faintly yellow if you're having an exciting day. Meanwhile, stock photographers are over here creating their own fantasy chemistry universe where every reaction must involve at least three neon colors and enough smoke to make a 1980s music video director jealous.
