Scientific regret Memes

Poor Darwin! The guy spends years meticulously studying plant inbreeding in his garden, all excited about his scientific discoveries... then remembers he married his first cousin Emma Wedgwood and had 10 kids with her. Talk about your research coming back to haunt you! Nothing like realizing you're basically a walking case study in your own genetic experiment. That moment when your family tree looks suspiciously like a family wreath. Darwin's face in that bottom panel is every scientist who ever discovered something they wish they hadn't!
