A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Oedipus dit also cut his eyes out when he realised what he had done, so...
That's what I never understood. Oedipus only fucked his mum because he didn't know who she really was. So, technically a motherfucker but it makes absolutely no sense as a psychology template (in my layman's eyes st least).
That’s sort of the point of the metaphor I think—Oedipus was driven to do it by fate even though the conscious awareness of it horrified him.
