Population genetics Memes

The classic bait-and-switch of biology degrees! You sign up thinking you'll spend four years studying majestic peacocks and rainbow-colored frogs, but suddenly you're drowning in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equations and chi-square tests. Nothing says "welcome to evolutionary biology" quite like realizing the colorful animals were just the marketing department's idea. The real curriculum? Calculating allele frequencies until your calculator begs for mercy. Next time someone says they're studying biology because they "love animals," just smile knowingly—they haven't met the population genetics midterm yet.
