Anyone else here like to make a ham sandwich with no spread of any kind and instead just squash the bread down as much as possible? Wow, I 😍 smashed ham sandwiches.

Cheers

Hey, and I tell ya- it's all about the smashing part. It morphs the sandwich into a completely different entity. You'll be stunned.:wow:

Ok then, (extremely) crappy science jokes competition! A little distraction for those cramming for the MCAT. I'll go first with an engineering classic:

So an I-beam walks into a bar and sits down. The bartender comes over and says, "What'll it be?" The I-beam replies, "Just give me a moment..."

OUCH! :laugh: ... :meanie: ... 😕

Q: Why are genes easier to express in prokaryotes?

A: Because the DNA is naked so it's easier to turn them on!

Two particles walk into a bar,
They both order drinks and when the come,
The proton asks how much?, the bartender replies, 1.60.
The neutron asks how much and the bartender replies,
"For you, no charge!"

On my high school chem teacher's wall:

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

Edit: I see that it's already included in guju's link, twice even...

Sorry hope I wasn't offensive to anyone who might be republican. Its not that I got anything against conservative people, just not a fan of Bush per se. But then again, I don't think any of the current political candidates are good. I think they get worse and worse as time goes on in both parties. Seems like its always between picking the lesser of two evils rather then finding one that I can agree with a lot.

Yeah I feel ya. I have a powerpoint due tomorrow so when I go home I have to finish that. Then I gotta study tomorrow for a lab quiz and then the remainder of the day for a test I have the following day. After Wed. I think I'll be ok.
