A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
It's about tiny percents.
A bird will land on a flower.
A bird will not land on a bird.
So every one in a million time a bird mistakes a flower for a bird, that's a flower that survives.
All you have to do is wait a couple million years for the odds to turn in the bird flower's favor.
...But birds pollinate flowers. How is a bird not landing on this (particular, too) flower going to help it survive?
Maybe they're tree scarecrows to keep bugs away
Sir, I believe those would be scarebugs.
If they keep bugs away then I'll take a dozen.
