Undergrads Memes

The blind leading the blind—but with lab coats! That penguin with the captain's hat is every grad student who's been thrown into teaching a lab section after exactly 3.5 minutes of training. Meanwhile, the eager undergrads follow behind like they're being led by Einstein himself. The beautiful irony of academia: everyone's faking it till they make it, but somehow science still happens. The real experiment is seeing how long the TA can maintain their façade of competence before someone asks a question that wasn't in the manual!

The lab hierarchy perfectly captured! Undergrads posing awkwardly with random equipment they barely understand. PhD students intensely staring at test tubes like they contain the secrets of the universe (spoiler: it's just water with food coloring). Postdocs smiling confidently because they finally know what they're doing... mostly. And professors? INVISIBLE! Too busy writing grant proposals or attending conferences in Hawaii to ever be spotted in the actual lab. The empty box speaks volumes about academic reality! Every scientist who's spent more than 5 minutes in a research lab is nodding furiously right now.
