dry ice bombs. I put a small piece of dry ice from any of the dry ice-packed shipments we get into an eppendorf tube and slip it into my lab mates coatpockets when they aren't paying attention, walk away. Wait for the pop and them screaming. Funny shit.
I once made a 50ml falcon tube one, threw it in the hazardous waste. Itt wouldn't explode after 5 minutes so I went in with face shield + big thermal gloves + garbage can lid as a shield and had just pulled it out when it exploded in my hands, no damage but half the floor poked their head in to see if they should be running or calling an ambulance
Good times when the PI is away

I didn't want to sperg out so I just stayed quiet. The girls ignore me now. Am I destined to be forever alone? God damn why are people so retarded. I'm a chemistry major ffs. Are they really going to imagine me as some scientifically illiterate buffoon?

See it's not that I can't find a way to fit in, it's that I hate how everyone's so divisive and can't agree to disagree. I'll never make a friend because the second I say something they disagree with they shut me out. It's every fucking time. I don't give opinions unsolicited either because I know people don't like the "AAAKSHUALLY" guy. I check in on how people are doing and stuff and I think I'm nice without being overbearing.

you did sperg out, you were supposed to explain that you don't want the first wave and preferably would wait as long as possible given that this is the least tested vaccine you will have ever taken in your life.

Shit. You guys are right. I wouldn't have minded explaining myself, but I thought that maybe I'd freak out the girl who got vaccinated. I was laughing at the "YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN SCIENCE??" shit because I was picturing soijaks in my head.

Give them a reason that you aren't taking it instead of refusing in a hostile manner. Just say that you've considered and that you want to wait and see if a more effective vaccine comes out. You aren't scientifically illiterate Anon, they just don't know how to think for themselves. I find it a bit odd that the CEO and Executive vice president sold millions of dollars worth of Pfizer stocks and that none of the executives and board members have taken the vaccine their company released yet. I certainly don't trust Johnson & Johnson either with all the recalls they've had to make over the years.

Yeah. The only point I need is that they haven't had the chance to study long term effects, and the companies are legally immune from lawsuits for any side effects of their vaccine.
Also, it's only 0.02% lethal. Maybe if it was airborne ebola I'd take it.

I'm a paranoid schizotypal hypochondriac so I always wear gloves and at least once a month I freak out thinking I inhaled some gas or something that will kill me.
Chemistry is still fun though and I'm efficient in the lab. Thinking I could be a safety coordinator or some shit.

Because I can't be fucked when it's only for a couple minutes. A mix of me only being in the lab for short periods anyway and it being dusts which settle quickly enough.
When it was more frequent I used an N95 but thanks to the bushfires + corona they all got used up and sold out/price jacked so now we have a limited supply (I'm actually not even sure where they are now, they're not kept where they used to be but I'm sure we have some somewhere). Still have vapour masks for the real bad shit though.

You need confidence. It will be a lot of work. If you want, I will go into the different official components of the Biontech/Pfizer and tell you biochemically speaking, what they are doing. So at least you can school them, if the have one of their childish outbursts.

>female biochemist: oh no there is a very scary new strain B117 out there. Very infectious. It seems to be everywhere now. Have you heard about Neils new model? The pandemic is getting worse and worse.
>you: The non standardized testing without internal control/operational false positive rate is to blame for the nonsense we are currently witnessing. They are driving 45 cycles and the have recruited every amateur they could find on top of that. Hopefully not to make sure the industrial scale lab is completely contaminated. The „envelop“ gene „specific“ primers hit almost everything. The „nucleocapsid“ „targeted“ primers don’t seem to go anywhere. The RNA dependent RNA polymerase builds hairpins and homodimers. Probably B117 has a simple explanation. They couldn’t find the „spike“ gene and picked another target. Temperatures are also incorrect. They had no negative control and just a in silico model of the virus, when they designed the WHO test. On top of that they „found“ SARS-CoV-2 only in one out of six initial Wuhan patients by throwing every primer they had at their body fluids. And even very creative alignment and massive filling of gaps, by computer programs could just make them come up with something slightly below 80 percent homologous to SARS-CoV-1 theoretical genome.

>that none of the executives and board members have taken the vaccine their company released yet
The husband of the "super couple that spearheaded the vaccine" said, as of Dec. 22nd, that he's not legally allowed to take the vaccine because the batches out there weren't reserved for company people. [To paraphrase a good bit]
