Totally forgot I made this one- whoops

Some day I want to see a sci-fi production where the Nerd spouts twenty seconds of impenetrable technobabble, and the Salt-of-the-Earth Audience Identification Character is just like “well, shoot – it sounds obvious when you put it that way”, and proceeds with the plan without ever demanding a plain English explanation for the benefit of the audience.

[prokopetz]

(Over the course of the series it becomes a running gag that the Audience Identification Character perfectly understands technobabble, though they don’t speak it themselves. There are recurring exchanges to the effect of “you know, the thingy with the bit on top” “you mean the [something with an implausible number of syllables]?” “exactly!”)

Okay yes but this is literally what trying to do science in a multilingual lab is like. Nobody can FUCKING REMEMBER the english word for the machine so it gets called the “microbial tilt-o-hurl” or the “germ carousel” and then everyone looks at you because english is YOUR first language, remembering english vocabulary is your department, and you can’t do anything because you’ve been trying to explain the difference in english notation between fractions and ratios for half an hour and you just yell “it’s the one in the left corner that beeps!”

Actual conversation I’ve had:

“Go get me the thicc boi”

“You mean the Erlenmeyer flask?”

“No, the sexy one”

“Volumetric flask.”

“Yeah, that fucker.”

The best part about this is when you have a household object you use for some obtuse laboratory purpose but your colleagues don’t know the English word for it so they use a technical description.

“Can you hand me the box with the static dischargers?”

“ah yes, here’s the dryer sheets.”

In film:

“Hey, can you grab me a couple of C-47s?”

“What?”

“Clothespegs.”

Can’t wait for OP to get scurvy

[plaguedocboi]

Are you under the impression that the ships themselves are what caused scurvy

[plaguedocboi]

Once again. Do you think this is the fault of the ships themselves

One time my dad came to family dinner all excited “you know that show Sherlock? I hear fans are writing whole new stories for it online”

And in perfect unison my sister and I yelled “DAD NO!” So vehemently he stopped in his tracks.

Then a look of dawning comprehension on his face.

“Oh, this is like Kirk and Spock, isn’t it”

And I died right then and there.
