galax

NO
YOU DONT UNDERSTAND
MERS ARE THE SHITTEST EVER AT
ASTRONO
NAMING THINGS I KID YOU NOT
When it came time to name the two theoretical
particle types that might be dark matter THEY
INTENTIONALLY CHOSE THE NAMES SO THAT
THE ACRONYMS WOULD SPELL "WIMPS" AND
MACHOS I SHIT YOU NOT
THEY ARE FUCKING TERRIBLE AT NAMING
ANYTHING

I just listened to a talk by Neil deGrasse Tyson
himself LAST NIGHT and he went on about this
more than once
m walking down the street and I'm like
pretty rock... and some Geologist is like 'actually
that's anorthosite feldspar and I'm like 'Nevermind,
I don't want it anymore. Any biologists in the
audience? [some clapping] Yeah, you know what
I'm talking about. The most important molecule in
the human body, what did you name it? It has NINE
SYLLABLES and it's so long that even YOU GUYS
abbreviate it as DNA'!
But astrophysicists and astronomers? No, man,
we call it like we see it. Star made of neutrons?
NEUTRON STAR. Small white star? WHITE DWARF
You know that big red spot on Jupiter? Know what we
cal "
lled it? JUPITER'S RED SPOT

nonsense bc their naming methods are the
bane of my existence

I see your astrophysicists-are-shit-at-names and raise
you Marine-Biologists-Are-Fucking-Maniacs
See this beautiful creature?
It's a carnivorous deep-sea sponge that lives off
of Easter Island and never sees the light of day, as
it's about 9000 feet down. Those delicate-looking
orbs are covered in millions of tiny hooked spines,
which latch onto anything unfortunate enough to
bump into it, and hold it in place as it is digested
alive by the sponge's skin. Amazing, beautiful and
profoundly creepy. They could have given it so many
cool names. Could have drawn on mythology (I think
Scylla would have been an appropriate reference),
the region it was found in, the textured skin,
PHAGOCYTOSIS, anything!
You wanna know what they called it?
PING-PONG TREE SPONGE.
Good job, marine biologists.
