The Buttons We Actually Use
Physics and engineering students looking at someone calling scientific calculator functions "useless"? *nervous laughter intensifies* 🧪 Those circled buttons (sin, cos, tan, log) are the bread and butter of anyone who's ever had to calculate the trajectory of a projectile at 2AM while questioning their life choices! Without them, we'd still be drawing triangles in the sand like cavemen with protractors! The real useless button is the one that turns the calculator on. Once you enter STEM, that thing never gets turned off. It becomes a permanent extension of your trembling, caffeine-fueled hand!

Name Every Organism Or Else
The ultimate biology pop quiz at gunpoint! Nothing says "I respect your scientific credentials" like demanding you recite all 8.7 million species while staring down the barrel of a gun. Taxonomists have been working on this list for centuries, but sure, cough it up in the next 30 seconds! Pro tip: start with bacteria, they're only about 1 trillion species. Should be done by the heat death of the universe.

The Real Scientific Gang War: Psi vs. Lb/in^2
The eternal pressure unit rivalry has entered the chat! While normal people argue about metric vs. imperial systems, real scientists are divided between those who write pressure as "psi" (pounds per square inch) and those who write it as "lb/in^2" (literally the same thing). It's like choosing between writing "2×4" or "2·4" - technically identical but people will fight to the death over their preference. Next time someone brings up unit conversions at a party, throw this debate on the table and watch the physics department implode!

The Great Calculator Conspiracy
The scientific calculator civil war has begun! Someone's circled all the advanced function buttons—you know, the ones that separate the math wizards from the "I just need to add these numbers" crowd. The punchline? "These people vote." Translation: The same folks who think logarithms and trigonometry are useless are making decisions about our future! Meanwhile, engineers are having heart palpitations just looking at this mathematical blasphemy. Fun fact: Those "useless" buttons helped us build rockets, design computers, and analyze quantum physics. But sure, who needs x² when you've got fingers to count on, right? *twitch*
