Degree-Off

[[A gameshow setting. Three figures stand behind podiums labeled PHYS, BIO, and CHEM, in front of an announcer.]] Announcer: Welcome to the DEGREE OFF, where we determine which field is the best! Physics, wanna go first? Physics: Sure! I'd like to tell the story of Richard Feynman's manhattan project lockpicking pranks.. Physics: ..and as he said "All science is either physics or stamp collecting." Thank you. Announcer: Great! Bio, you wanna go next? Biology: Okay. [[A graph appears displaying numbers falling from eight hundred per one hundred thousand, to less than a hundred per one hundred thousand, over the last century.]] Biology:This is a graph of the death rate from infectious disease in this country. [[BIO raises fist emphatically]] Biology: The heroes of my field have SLAIN one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. [[BIO points finger at PHYS]] Biology: While the heroes of YOUR field gathered in the desert to create a new one. Physics: ...jeez, what the hell? I thought this was supposed to be fun and lighthearted! Biology: YOU MUST HAVE BEEN THINKING OF STAMP COLLECTING. {{Title text: I'M SORRY, FROM YOUR YEARS OF CONDESCENDING TOWARD THE 'SQUISHY SCIENCES', I ASSUMED YOU'D BE A LITTLE HARDER.}}
