Fake News Friday: Biochemistry Building's recent aloofness, munchie-nomming explained

Biochemistry professors discovered why their beloved Biochemistry Building was “so chill” the last few months just minutes after the police arrested Biochemistry researcher Christopher Schwartz for growing up to 1000 grams of marijuana.

Professor Edwin Albright said since mid-summer everything in the building seemed to “move a whole lot slower,” all the sounds got “alarmingly intense,” and, in sharp contrast to business as usual being a biochemist, Albright said he felt “unusually content” inside.

Associate professor Edward Fulbraugh added he would often find his daily breakfast of Bugels and Nutter Butters strewn across the floor on Thursdays, when Wisconsin Public Television airs “Bill Nye the Science Guy” and “Zoom” reruns.

While both professors said they were pleased that life in the Biochemistry Building has gone back to normal, Fulbraugh said he could not quite put his finger on it but he thought fondly of, and even missed how he felt in the building before the arrest.

“I was pretty confused why I was feeling the way I did,” Fulbraugh said. “At the time I had all these ideas of why I felt so, but I can’t remember any of them now.”
