Welcome to Your Daily Nerd Thing where every weekday we bring you a different nerdy thing we found on the internet. We all enjoy a good internet meme. Even if we disagree on how to pronounce the word meme. I have featured memes here before because I also enjoy them. Except Harlem Shake, you know what you did Harlem Shake.
On twitter a new meme and hashtag popped up and I thought it would be fun to share some of it. Its called #UnscienceAnAnimal and its exactly what it sounds like. You take an animal and describe it without all that complicated science.
I couldn’t resist to #UnscienceAnAnimal my beloved #PallasCat. pic.twitter.com/ihdLIU9K3R

Because my previous attempt at #UnscienceAnAnimal was deemed “too depressing” and “people turn to us for hope, SUE” and also “Maybe take a few weeks off from reading the news, OK?” pic.twitter.com/8eiJW3Bei9
