Molecular modeling Memes

The eternal nightmare of organic chemistry students everywhere! That "S" drawing is the infamous Schlegel diagram of cyclohexane - the molecular structure that haunts dreams and ruins GPAs. Drawing this perfectly on exams is like trying to perform brain surgery with oven mitts. The reply "Now load it in chem3d an optimize" is the modern chemist's equivalent of "just use a calculator" - completely missing the existential crisis of having to draw these by hand during tests. The perfect representation of that moment when you realize your beautifully drawn chair conformation looks more like abstract art than actual science.
