I don’t get out much

You know you’re a hopeless geek when…

…you get served an onion ring like this, and all you can think about is bacterial plasmid replication forks.

*Sighs* I’m with you on that one Jenny, I would even go so far as to keep that onion ring for use in tutorials, in the hope that it may engage the students more than me drawing a theta on a white board 😉

But… the smell.

I wouldn’t have made the association, since it was so long ago that I learned about bacterial replication I’d forgotten all about it.

Onion rings, however, I am well familiar with.

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one seeing a plasmid! I also see codons on license plates here in the States, such as today’s license plate carrying 564 UGC.
