I'm beginning to suspect that Zach Weiner has issues with biologists

He's done it again. It's another comic that mocks biologists. It's entirely true, but that's beside the point — he's exposing us! And yes, I know that he's married to a parasitologist, which just means he's been given direct insight into the mind of a biologist and will be using that information against us.

This could be trouble. Weiner shouldn't be surprised if he's walkin' down the street sometime and a gang in labcoats whispers up behind him in their Priuses and pelts him with viscera. We're a dangerous bunch, you know.
