Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: All Style, No Ribosomes
The cellular equivalent of "I'm here to look pretty, not to work." Smooth ER is just chilling without ribosomes, handling lipid synthesis and detoxification while its rough cousin does all the protein manufacturing heavy lifting. It's like that coworker who somehow gets paid the same as you but never seems to have any deliverables due. Next time someone asks what you're doing, just say "I'm smooth ER today" and go back to scrolling through your phone.

The Cellular Split Personality

The Cellular Split Personality
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is truly the cellular Jekyll and Hyde! This organelle exists in two forms: smooth ER (no ribosomes, sleek like a freshly waxed sports car) and rough ER (covered in ribosomes, bumpy like a teenage face before prom). It's literally the only correct answer to "what can be smooth but also rough" - unless you're talking about my lab notes after 48 hours without sleep! The ER is basically that friend who's both organized AND chaotic depending on which side of their personality you're dealing with. Biology's ultimate dual-personality organelle!
