Stop Doing Soil Science

STOP DOING SOIL SCIENCE • Dirt was not supposed to be given names • Digging in the soil with your bare hands is GROSS • You are only disturbing the worms • TOTAL LACK OF RESPECT for the Earth and the secrets that lie beneath the surface Look at what Soil Scientists have been demanding our attention and respect for Long T hole in ground ??????? "What type of soil is this?" "Ah, this is clearly a haplic arenic ferric garlic albeluvicambisol" They have played us for absolute fools

The meme presents mock complaints against soil science, followed by a soil profile, a soil classification triangle, and an absurdly elaborate invented soil name. The punchline is that soil scientists appear to demand respect for digging up dirt and assigning it ridiculous technical labels, revealing the speaker’s exaggerated suspicion of the field.
