Lab fridge Memes

The lab fridge - that mysterious ecosystem where samples go to fossilize. Every research group has one: a refrigerator that's essentially a scientific archaeological dig waiting to happen. Some of those cultures are probably developing their own cultures by now. The real experiment isn't what's written in your lab notebook - it's seeing how long that unlabeled tube from 2018 can survive before someone brave enough declares a hazardous waste emergency. Graduate students come and go, but that mysterious falcon tube with the faded label will outlast us all.
