#2514: Lab Equipment

XKCD comic, described below.
Transcript

[Ponytail and Cueball are talking to each other. They are standing between two tables with equipment scattered on them, including lens-stands and eye-protection. Ponytail is pointing away from Cueball towards an unidentified off-panel location.]

Ponytail: The spectrometer is over here, the Nd:YAG lasers are over here,

Ponytail: and in the corner is a laser that turned out not to be useful for us, but we keep it because it's fun to toast marshmallows with it.

[Caption below the panel]

Every lab in every field has some piece of equipment like this.

Title text:I've been working on chocolate bar annealing techniques to try to produce the perfect laser s'more. Maybe don't mention that on the grant application though.
