I totally forgot how nerdy scientists are

[Nathan]

I went in today to see a prof about attending grad school in January and to make appointments to talk with the other profs. Man alive. It's almost as though they have yearly meetings or something to decide upon a universal dress-code for scientists. If you wish to become a scientist, you will need the following:

1) A pair of huge glasses with some kick-ass thick rims.
2) A collared shirt that you are prepared to wear day in and day out. (No fancy designs either. Let's keep it simple.) If you do not have a collared shirt, a cotton t-shirt will do fine PROVIDED there is some reference to Avogadro's number on there.
3) A repertoire of less than amusing science-related jokes that only other scientists will understand.
4) Pants (arguably).
5) Every Yoda action figure ever made.

I was gonna ask where all the hot chicks were at but the prof I was there to see was a woman and I didn't want to offend her. Not that it will probably matter since it ends up she collaborates with a prof I worked for a couple years ago and did jack shit all for. I knew that was going to come back and bite me in the ass. I did not like that man.

I assume you're talking about chemists.

Them fools are one gene from retardation.

Close bro. Close. Physicists. Chemists fit the mold nicely too though.

I never remembered using Avagadro's number for physics.
But disctinctly recall using it during chem classes.

What applications do physicists have for it?

 

[Robert Jan]

lol my dads a chemist but he´s nothing like you described. same goes for my granddad

more like snobs than nerds if you insist to stereotype them

I've seen more jokes and references to Planck's constant than Avogadro's number.

 

[Nathan]

You guys are so fucking dead. Alright, fine Avogadro's number is not all that common in physics. I saw some dude wearing a shirt that said in big bold letters: "Avogadro's Number." Hence the example. Fuck all of you.

 

[slickdadd]

The same goes for me and my field, but I will keep such information to myself. That way I'm more mysterious and, well, let's be honest, dead sexy.

 

[Code]

I was just curious orb.
No hate intended.

I can see where it has limited appliction though.

Not All of us look like that!!!!

haahahahahahah, so true.

figuring out the pressure change in a closed system from first principles, where a gas is either a product of, or reagent in, a reaction taking place at those conditions

been there, done that, thank the Lord its over

Without these fools you would live in the stone ages. Look around you and throw away everything that is made from plastic and enjoy with bacteria infested drinking water, houses made of weak bricks and really bad cement, your fruits and veggies would contain insects and fungus, you would die becaase there would be almost no antibiotics and medication and so on.

no roids and growth without chemists. Nice world huh?

god dang thermo and kinetics.

I wasn't really mad or nuthin'. I don't think I've ever really made a post in which I was genuinely angry here. I post when I'm not wearing any pants a lot, but never when I'm mad about something. Are you picturing me naked right now? How about now? I highly recommend the experience and I think you'll find it rather refreshing.

What kind of scientist are you?

 

[canadianhitman]

I used to hate spending time around scientists back when I was in at the University of Ottawa. The Chemists in D'Iorio Hall were bad, but being around the Physicists in MacDonald Hall was the worst.

 

[NorthNPrincess]

What kind of scientist are you?

I have both a degree in Chemistry and Microbiology.... I work as a molecular biologist.

I'm not really mad, ..... most of my coworkers look like what you described!

I LOVE science!!!!!

I'm a luddite, I'd prefer it that way.
