RULES OF THE LABORATORY

• If an experiment works, something has gone wrong.

• When you don't know what you're doing, do it neatly.

• Experiments must be reproducible; they should fail the same way each time.

• First draw your curves, and then plot your data.

• Experience is directly proportional to equipment ruined.

• Always keep a record of your data. It indicates that you have been working.

• If you can't get the answer in the usual manner, start at the answer and derive the question.

• Team work is essential, it allows you to blame someone else.

• All unmarked beakers contain fast-acting, extremely toxic poisons.

• No experiment is a complete failure. At least it can serve as a negative example.

...I think that sums up high school Science labs pretty well. :3
