Giving up Memes

Nothing brings lab partners together quite like catastrophic failure. When your experiment throws a 4000% error—a number so absurd it shouldn't even exist in scientific notation—you've transcended mere failure and entered the realm of achievement. The high-five isn't celebrating success; it's celebrating the sweet release of giving up. After all, you can't fix what's fundamentally broken, but you can absolutely go home and pretend it never happened. Tomorrow's problem will be for tomorrow's slightly more traumatized scientists.
