An anti-ode to STEM students

Do not worry, they will take it as a joke

By A Bitter STEM Burnout

When did you first realize you had no soul? (asking for a friend) 

Was it when you learned the stages of Mitosis for the first time? 

Or the second? 

Or the third? 

Still in high school, by the way. 

The fourth, maybe?  

THAT ONE BRAIN CELL DOING GOD’S WORK (AND FAILING) I’M JUST KEN / ANARCHY

Was it when you learned 

speed (v) multiplied by time (t) equals distance (d)

four years in a row, only to somehow 

still bomb the kinematics unit in General Physics?

 

Perhaps it was when you told the Chemistry professor 

you didn’t feel prepared for the exam he spent

the entire year preparing you for and he coincidentally 

quit teaching afterward and went into administration.

 

The world may never know. 

Hell, maybe you still do not know
