I was actually on track to becoming a biochemist before I changed to computer science

i mean we used to have mouth pipetting and DuPont chemists smoking in the lab and noticing the taste of their experiments on the cigs lol

I was once studying biology, got up to the point of doing field studies. On one trip, we came upon what looked to be animal droppings. He went on about how the diet of the animal obviously affects the flavor of the excrement and then told us he could tell us what deposited it just by tasting it and proceeded, to the horror of many present to pop the littler turd in his mouth and chew on it.

Then he revealed that it was actually just a misshapen tootsie roll he had one of the aids sneak ahead on the trail and plant for him to fuck with us.

The worst ones are... radioactive, or asbestiform. So....

Kyanite is harmless but nasty.

We once found a group of bio students on a field trip.

We pranked up their van and took incriminating pictures.

Chemistry is just simplified biology.

Eh, for organic, maybe. For inorganic not really. And all the crystal stuff is just physics we appropriated. And the rest of materials science is rightfully ours as well and one day we shall take it back from the engineers.

This is one of my favorite xkcds
