so @biflash and I decided we need a realistic movie/show scene where the science character goes to do their amazing analysis in the lab only to have random realistic problems occur (b/c it’s unrealistic that their work is so accurate in like 20 min work time)
- science character: ON IT!!*4 hours later* “fuck, the gel cracked when I was trying to get it off the plate”
- a 3 hour long movie of some poor grad student stuck in a lab trying desperately to get data
- a 10 minute montage of everything that can go wrong going wrong
- Scientist after gel finishes: “I GOT IT!!! LET’S SEE WHAT WE’VE GOT!!!” Image: only shows ladder scientist: fuck
- background hero: in english pls
- forgetting which lanes represent what/forgetting to label test tubes/forgetting to add dye to their samples (I am guilty of this)
- accidentally running the sample off the gel
- or stopping it too early and not having the bands separate accurately
- fucking up so badly not even the ladder shows up
- random air bubbles disrupting the formation of lanes after putting in the comb
- and the gel is already half solid so u cant just pour in more
- smelling like rotten fish all day because they opened a mini tube with TEMED in it
- accidentally running the sample from positive to negative instead of negative to positive and realizing they just wasted like half an hour
- the gel leaking as they pour it between the glass frames
- getting into ninja poses as they try to see the nearly invisible wells while they try to load them
- forgetting to leave their tubes on ice and performing the whole experiment for no reason™
- forgetting to mix the restriction enzyme samples properly and screwing up the restriction digest
give us more realistic scientists who suffer pls. not all scientists can perform a badass experiment with the presence of one random mini tech machine. and even if they did, i bet you something would somehow go wrong hahaha.

You forgot “background hero opening the tube of e coli and sniffing it, only to be hit by that smell”
