Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Now her fingers are in her mouth. Don't people know when they're not home????

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

They're not depressed on CSI. Not notably. In fact, if I were drawing my scientist conclusions from CSI, I'd totally want to be one, because they're kinda pretty. And have hot co-workers.

Mmmmm, Warrick.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

They might look depressed to kids, though, because they always seem to work in dark rooms and though they smile, they don't laugh much.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Scientists make secretaries feel homicidal. That's all I know.

I guess--but that's just about every occupation in a one hour drama.

And they are way pretty.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Handy New York/LA comparison chart.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Kids who think scientists are all depressed all the time should see them drunk at parties some time. The hardest partiers I've ever met were not frat boys (amateurs...), they were scientists.

Plus, you get fun and entrtaining things like listening to drunk scientists try to explain the biochemistry of drunkeness to a room full of other drunk people. Funny.

If you had asked me at 11 what scientists do, my answer probably would have included skinny dipping.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The kids at Harvey Mudd had the best drugs and the craziest parties.
