    This might just be me, but an exclamation point ruins this joke, and many similar ones

    With no exclamation point, I read this as a very dry, very serious response, and the comedy comes from the absurdity of what’s said with a straight face

    When I see the exclamation mark, my brain goes “BOOMER BOOMER BOOMER”

    These kinds of charts are usually used to compare things that, in this case, wouldn’t be science, but humourously could be considered science if given a chance

    But the other guy is right-if you don’t follow the scientific method and don’t try to describe your findings in ways that attempt to better understand the universe, then that’s not science. That’s bias










  • I agree that English is a constantly changing language, with many words meaning the same thing or single words meaning multiple different things. It’s the case with the male man, derived from werman, as is such with many other words

    But your point ignores what I was trying to say

    Anybody who feels the need to specify gender with such limited information is simply being sexist. Neither male nor female should be assumed in this instance

    This goes for people other than those in the post; scholars and students should be held accountable alike

    Whether these historic individuals were male or female is irrelevant. Only their creations truly matter
