A molecular biology PhD teaches you that it's possible to spend months/years feeling stressed and unhappy because small amounts of liquid in tubes don't behave.

The most successful scientists I know

1. Talk about paradigm shifts
2. Always have a “moonshot” project in their lab
3. Call everything we don’t know a lot about “dark matter”
4. Think outside the box
5. Oh hang on
6. No
7. I meant the most _annoying_ scientists say these things
