If we re-compress the image a few more times it’ll become even more of a zinger!

Do you think that disqualifies someone from providing valid criticism?

It doesn’t.

If your whole thesis is derailed by one rat not behaving as you thought I’d argue your thesis is probably pretty shitty to begin with.

Good point! Have they checked these laboratory mice to make sure their genes haven’t been spliced?

Actually not all rats are afraid of cats. I had a lot of pet rats and some cats. While the two cats are mostly afraid and respectful of the rats, about 1/4 of the rats had no problem co-existing with the cats. Like, they saw the cat as a rat and acted like it, not afraid or anything, while another rat peed herself because she was so scared of the cats.

I’m guessing Henrietta Lacks, since she’s probably got a bone to pick with the research community as a whole. I bet she’s got some special accommodation with the universe to be brought back constantly as a stream of lab animals, just to fuck with the data.

Revenge is a dish best served confusingly.
