"OK, next week we'reteaching the heart so tonight we're opening the thorax. You all have done the prelim reading on the procedure?"

"Yea, but why was this chapter called Open Mike Night?"

Haven't done one of these in a while but a common question I get is "are you a serial killer?" Which I enjoy answering as vaguely as possible

Fun fact that most all serial murderers are type A personality and highly motivated individuals capable of planning far ahead and I am decidedly a lazy ass.

To the professor that made this presentstion of 150 slides with only a single sentence each:

I hope your socks are wet forever.

The greatest tragedy of the 100 men vs gorilla debate to me personally is the fact that just having this debate means Animorphs has left the collective knowledge.

Does anyone know if anyone has ever tried putting communion wafers in one of those nerf disk launchers?

Made the mistake of telling a TA that the psoas muscles is the human tenderloin. They then tried to repeat that fact a dozen times, more and more wrong each time.

My favs:
"This is the psoas muscle! When you eat pork this is what you're eating!"

"This is psoas! It's pork chops!"

Balance is key in life.
For instance: this week I taught my students how to open a human thorax and dissect a heart.
I also missed a step going upstairs so hard I left teeth marks in my chin.
Balance.

Shout out to one of my students who not only found a very particular lymph node to biopsy, but then bar-of-soaped the greasy glass vial into the air and managed to catch it before disaster. You'll make an excellent dad.

"Is this the knee?"

Never ever would I have expected I would need to confront a student about being high during a dissection.

Thinking about posting some of the most common q&a that come up at my work. This one comes up at least a few times a year:
"How many people in your profession go vegan?"

It's about 50/50. Half go vegan or vegetarian and the other half get pretty particular about butchery.

Student today, while working in the cadaver lab and just vibing to 2010 hit singles:

"Huh. I never really noticed how many love songs talk about someone's skin."

On the topic of the gender identity EO:
"(e) “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell."

Is the argument here that you are not male until you produce gametes, or you are not male until you successfully fertilize an ovum?

Running an anatomy lab you occasionally miscount how many students you have and specimens onhand and get to spend your morning chasing down coworkers to ask if they have a secret stash of organs.

Quick census: how do you personally pronounce macabre? Do you pronounce it like "corn on the macabre" or "cupa-macabre"?
