Know that you know nothing

Love the self-proclaimed internet intellectuals who on one hand laugh themselves sick at “idiots” who don’t know the sun is a star but will on the other hand righteously demand that The Pill should “just work” for guys instead, because there’s no way it could be a complex biochemical problem to solve.

Apparently you get instant garunteed results if you just throw enough magic Science -juice at a problem.
