big dorks

today at lunch, after busting our ass for 2 hours and barely getting 1/3 of the way through a genetics problem set due tomorrow, my school-friend jeff asked me what i was up to in lab today. i whined a bit about how i had this huge purification column to run, and how no, it was actually going to take all afternoon, and i wouldn't even get to finish the problem set before i went home. he's all, well what's taking you so long about purification, and i'm like, excuse me i'm actually really good at it, it's just that i have to do it by gravity, so it takes forever to drip slowly at a flow rate of NO. he goes, well there's one way to make gravity flow go much, much faster. i perked up and was like, jeff you're my hero, what, please tell me, you're so smart...and he's like, yeah. go do it on another planet with better gravity.

and that killed me, guys. i laughed really hard.

i need me some sleep.
