# I fucking hate Biology :P

# I skimmed the thingi and assumed it said anthropod because that was a word I knew.

Chemistry? Yeah, blowing things up is cool.
Physics? Yeah, knowing how things blowing up will work out is cool.
Biology? Fuck off ;)

# Yeah, bloody biologists
They call monosaccharides "simple sugars!" I ask you!
(I helped save b3ta! Crystal Magnet Like a diamond geezer, but better, Tue 25 Aug 2009, 23:09, archived)
# Well, monosaccharides are usually C6H12O6, which as organic chemicals go isn't that complex.

# There was a time in my life when I could draw that.
No longer.

# It involves a hexagon with bits coming off it.

# I managed to forget A level chemistry in four days - a record
Fortunately it was the four days following the exam.

# Or there's an alternate representation where you have the main carbon chain going up and down
and the OH and H groups are off to the left and right.

# Are you an actual alchemist?
Do you try all day to turn lead into gold?

# Yes.
No, I do this : gilleain.blogspot.com

# Whoa! I like the pictures.
But rarely have I seen so many words I don't understand.

# Kevlar, for example, now that's a complex chemical.
(I helped save b3ta! Mu Dinofiddler, Tue 25 Aug 2009, 23:15, archived)
# Hmmm. Looks like a protein with the alpha carbons replaced by phenyl groups.
Proteins, now THERE's a complex chemical.
(I helped save b3ta! The Alchemist king of the needlessly complicated, Tue 25 Aug 2009, 23:19, archived)
# Yeah, but kevlar can stop bullets.
And it's a polymer, not a protein.
(I helped save b3ta! Mu Dinofiddler, Tue 25 Aug 2009, 23:21, archived)
# This is true. I expect that some sort of exoskeleton made from protein and metal ions might do so too.
Or maybe just chitin.

# *Nods and smiles*
Exoskeleton, fuck yeah.

# Are you a proper scientist, Crystal Meth?
Tell me Science.

# Meh.
My mum is a Molecular Bioligist. It bores me.

# Keep people comfy on fluffy green sofas
Is about the only thing I remember from biology.
