Moai Memes

Someone turned a serious molecular biology lecture on protein translation into pure comedy gold by adding a hula-dancing blob and Easter Island head (moai) to the slide! The diagram shows eIF2 protein complexes involved in translation initiation—the critical process where ribosomes start making proteins from mRNA. The blue hula dancer appears to be performing atop the PABP (Poly-A Binding Protein), while the stoic moai statue is just... judging everyone's life choices from the bottom of the slide. This is what happens when your professor leaves their PowerPoint unattended for 5 minutes before class. Molecular biology has never been so culturally diverse!
