Science > World's Greatest Physics Lab Report

Electron Band Structure In Germanium, My Ass, via Ace.

Results

Check this shit out (Fig. 1). That's bonafide, 100%-real data, my friends. I took it myself over the course of two weeks. And this was not a leisurely two weeks, either; I busted my ass day and night in order to provide you with nothing but the best data possible. Now, let's look a bit more closely at this data, remembering that it is absolutely first-rate. Do you see the exponential dependence? I sure don't. I see a bunch of crap.

Conclusion

Going into physics was the biggest mistake of my life. I should've declared CS. I still wouldn't have any women, but at least I'd be rolling in cash.

As a CS major, this makes me very happy.

As a physics major for three years (before I switched to engineering), I can sympathize. I hated physics labs that never turned out right.

The Millikan oil-drop experiment was my particular nemesis.
