High School Lesson #0848

Students cart a large box with label reading Caution: Contains one killer robot  Must liquidate humans  Teacher: No  Students: Aww  If your science project could potentially throw half the student body into chaos, you may want to have a plan B

Examples of chaos-inducing science projects include the following: 
Those containing live animals (they’ll escape) or dead animals (yuck), involving acid (yes, including LSD), are toxic (yes, including cafeteria lunches), are highly flammable (remember Murphy’s Law), move on their own, think for themselves, are explosive (this had better not come as a surprise to you), resemble anything from the Tower of London (or the orthodontist’s office), or are larger than an average refrigerator.

While shouting “I destroyed my high school -FOR SCIENCE!” at the top of your lungs is rather intimidating, in most cases it also looks bad on a résumé.   Take note.
