Give the guy a break! At least his students aren’t poisoning each other or anything…

You should feel bad for him. He's lost everything. All he has left is the millions he's made.

Cry me a million dollars.

You can't blame him for that one.
Btw I dated a biochemist and they're all insane.

Is it from all the biochemicals? I think it is from all the biochemicals.

Don't forget the regular chemicals. Though I'm a bioanalytical chemist, so I likely use more of those than a typical biochemist.

Studied biochemistry as a major, currently am a microbiology grad student. Biochemistry attracts a certain type of person. Imagine smashing your head against a brick wall. That's how it feels like to do biochemistry.

People who do biochemistry are brilliant but wow, they're intense. At least they're not evolutionary ecologists.

Never have I ever strangled my roommate, poisoned my advisor for suggesting I go into a different branch of physics, and created a weapon that deletes entire metropolitan areas.

Two out of three of those, **at most.
