For Science! For… Umm… Well what else would work?


From Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal

This one was funny enough to make me spit out coffee.

What I particularly like about this cartoon is the fact that I’ve been substituting other words for “science” and seeing if I can get the same desired effect.

In other words, try: “For Social Science!” or “For Canada!” or “For Literature!”

Doesn’t really work does it? In fact, the only other word I could come up with, where I think you might be able to get away with it, is “For Charity!”

Interesting? Well, maybe I’m totally missing something here. Can you think of something else that would work?
