Cuz physics gals need to laugh, too

An Oldie but Goodie: "Electron Band Structure in Germanium, My Ass."

It's an exquisitely bitter lab report I find myself quoting, in the course of my scientific investigations, on a semi-weekly basis. My favorite line is "Figure 1: check this shit out."

My careful theoretical modeling and painstaking experimentation reveal 1) that my equipment is crap, as are all the available texts on the subject and 2) that this whole exercise was a complete waste of my time.

Classic.
