Watson and Crick weren't so great . . .

You know what they did, right? They modeled the structure of a protein.

That's not cool. That's organic chemistry. It's boring.

I can't imagine anything more boring than organic chemistry.



Edit: Just to demonstrate that I live what I write, a true dialogue between me and a friend. Call him/her Philonous:

11:00 PM Philonous: nice post on organic chem

me: it is boring

11:01 PM Philonous: i've heard difficult

11:02 PM me: difficult only because it is so dumb

A Complete Collection of Inappropriately Named Scientific Professions

1.) Metaphysician: Metaphysicist, or private practice doctor who only treats other doctors?

2.) Paleontology: The ontology of old things. But somehow they restricted themselves to animals and flint napping. I hardly think that is a complete ontology for x years ago (with 3000 < x < 2000000000). Where's the account of true being?

3.) Ecologist/Economist: Evidently, economists are concerned with the laws (nomos) of our environs. Ecologists are concerned with the rhetoric or rational debate (logos) of our environs. Ya. Sure. Whatever.

4.) Cosmology/Cosmetology: Ha!

That is all.

Every Supermarket in the Country Has a Deli

So why do we need presliced, prepackaged deli meat? What is the point? Like, you can just grab a package instead of talking to the people at the deli counter. The one is much easier? You really need to get meat at 7-11?
