So sad that science seems to be a dirty word to far too many people.

Oh that happens a lot.

It's also possible for somebody to be stupid and inarticulate - have you met our Prime Minister?

Well, properly explaining things is a craft of its own, especially if the thing you want to explain requires a lot of prior knowledge and the common explanation involve a lot of specialized vocabulary. Replacing the vocabulary on your feet and mentioning all the necessary prior knowledge but nothing more to keep the confusion down is HARD. I like to explain complicated things in my head but that is the work of days of intensive thinking, I couldn't do it on the spot.

That's why not everyone is capable of teaching... passing knowledge is not something you automatically have just because you have the knowledge!

We play classroom jeapordy. Nobody listens to me saying the right answer, it happens to be the one I thought of, and nobody still doesn’t listen to me. I’m also very shy and horrible at explaining why I’m correct.

Triggered but it's fair...

Well isn't that every single high-functioning autistic like me out here.

Absolutely.

As a CAD designer I have to work with Engineers. I sometime have to ask the same question more than once.

Truth

I'm horrible at articulating any point just though I was stupid and smart at the same time 😂

Like the ones in the Alien franchise? Then yes I have met them. I have type AB- blood. That is Alien modified DNA.

Ask Picasso

Also, someone who’s very well informed in one area is not necessarily informed in others. Technical people can know a ton about their specialty and nothing about social skills or some other area of career focus. That doesn’t even address the case of the billionaires speaking about topics that have nothing to do with their actual area of expertise, throwing their money to push things in the direction they want, and people believing in them because of their “success” ... it’s extremely dangerous.

happens all the time.

😅🤣😅

Gosh, all the hardware and software engineers I worked with were not only very articulate but very witty as well.

Not everyone has speaking skills. And not everyone who does have them is intelligent.

Oh so very accurate. I know an aerospace engineer who writes documents like an 8th grader.

I do this a lot myself, and it's often for some inane thing too.

Yep....it is more possible than you think.

l am vary adjucated butt articullating is litle bit dificcult for me

Married one...

Wow, that one is good!

We know we know nothing (Socrates)

Hahaha I think I'll remember it now

I love that very much!

Neil deGrassi Tyson does great docos. The David Attenborough of space (astrophysics).

Aww I'm sure it's a fun guy.

When you realize you can do this with basically anything

brilliant

Still waiting for algae to be used for the production of renewable fuels. Forget electric cars, I want old-fashioned only slightly adjusted cars that run on bio-fuels made from microscopic algae!

Finns at 100C: "Why is this sauna cold?"

I was supposed to memorize it in HS, but I figured out that failing the class wouldn't prevent me from graduating. Problem solved.

Organic chemistry!

My mom don't need a major in physics. She brings ALL the wrong stuff in the films up. Gravity, explosions, "This guy should be dead after that". SOOO FRUSTRATING!!!!

WHY DID NO ONE SHOW ME THIS BEFORE I LOVE IT!

Mutations of Corona (see right)

yes, which you then delete or move to a foot note ( and then delete) in subsequent revisions

No no no, not astrology it's astronomy!

Don't undercut geologists. They largely determine where nuclear waste can be stored. Kinda a big job.

O H N O

He should be riding a hippopotamus.

Who are the first two couples?

poor birb

Yeah, why give it away? Time travel is possible, but people aren't that stupid to show it is possible...

"Concrete mm confortable" "Is this tap water? Becuase I'm allergic"

real knowledge is knowing where to find and how to apply information

Someone's translated "noot!"

Well...Thats one way to move the subject on to biological reproduction.

I need this

virtual hugs for those whose understanding just hit home with this

For everyone that does not understand this meme, let me explain.....

And this is why "laboratory results show..." is not necessarily a big reliable indicator for how things act in real life. Mice, bacteria, whatever.
