It was a very specific fitness regimen.

Somebody should make a site for Bunsen burner recipes. You know, for the hungry chemist on the go. Maybe an Erlenmeyer soufflé or something.
(No, molecular gastronomy doesn’t count.)
On a completely different note: s’mores!

We all have our coping mechanisms ;)
On a (slightly) less nerdy note, have you noticed that the phrase “[insert verb]… THIS!” is an epidemic in action movies? Heroes love to shout that line just before landing a finishing blow or launching a missile or something of the sort. It’s almost a code: shorthand for “I am clever with puns and defiant at the same time.”
Here are just a few that are stuck in my head:
[Just before firing a rocket at a robotic drill.] “Dig THIS!”
VILLAIN: “I can read your every move!”
HERO: “Read THIS!”
[HERO proceeds to stab VILLAIN with a knife embedded in a book. I kid you not.]
[Just before destroying some Borg thing.] “Assimilate THIS!”
Can you tell where those quotes came from? They were all major, relatively recent films ;)
