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.
Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics.
I love that quote. I should buy that book just as an artifact to make me happy every time I see it. The absolute pinnacle of self-aware humor.
Which book?
The book "States of Matter" by David L. Goodstein.
That's a good one lol, love it when a textbook has some humor.
I can't remember which text it is, but it opens talking about a bunch of physicists studying stat mech then suck starting shotguns. Then it goes "and now it's our turn to study statistical mechanics"
