If you aren't familiar with the cultural lowest common denominator that is the faux reality show "Jersey Shore", well, you are lucky.   

It follows the travails of some truly idiotic youngish (and pudgy) people as they drink and fight their way through another mindless day.

Regardless, it's popular so a group took the opportunity to show us all how we could learn molecular biology ... the Jersey Shore way.

Check out classic quotes like:

"See these purple nitriles?   Ladies don't like that, right there.   But you (unintelligible unless you are 18 and living in New Jersey) on these black midnights and ... BOOM ... chick magnet.  Like I need the help."

Fist bumps over ligation?  Don't all scientists do that?
