Today's outburst of reading laughter was brought to me by this passage:
"That is not okay! You can’t do science with two people at once!"
"Er—"
"I mean, you can’t do science with two different people and not tell them about each other!"

(which of course won't make much sense unless you've read the 86 chapters before that part.)
And then I reflected that I could relate a lot more to that statement taken literally, than to that for which it might be interpreted as a metaphor.
