Team Roast - Biker
Did she show up to work in her worst outfit not knowing it was picture day?
Did the photographer forget about her until she was walking out at 5:30?
There simply has be a rational explanation for wearing a leather jacket in a head shot.
Team Roast - Bikers
Then there's the team at Neogene who seems to have been gifted matching bike shirts. They duly hopped on their wheels and put a picture of the crew atop the Team page.
This picture reminds us how biking is the anti-yoga in that one cannot possibly look good in biking attire, no matter what.
Ohh Noo
Juvenile. That’s all this company is. The company name is Ohh-Med and they sell an at-home ED device called Vertica. The press release reads like satire. They talk of 'satisfied customers' visit their offices to 'express their gratitude'.
We’re sure they do!
Joking aside, you have to give them some credit for the ballsy icon choice on this chart.
Leverage
It's common for people who have no idea what they're talking about to pepper in a 'leverage' now and again. Usually when people say leverage, they just mean 'use'. But only a person who wanted to look dumb would say it that way!
Here we have a cell therapy company who says they are leveraging cells to make people look younger and feel better. To hammer it home, they put together a piano-backed, poorly animated video to deeply explain their technology. Just kidding, they put some words on there and some random pictures.
Shockingly, they're publicly traded. All these public companies in the promotional business with nothing to sell are quite confounding. Ok they're not, they're just hoping to lure in some more suckers.
Holiday in Houston
In an ongoing story, there still seem to be 1000+ macaques hanging around in Texas because Charles River imported them from Cambodia and they were likely taken from the wild, which is an international no-no.
The question is what to do with them. One estimate for housing them permanently ran to $125 million (which is obviously a joke - these things don't even have a cellphone plan!) The feds were entertaining the idea of sending them back home, but PETA had a problem with that, because they have a problem with everything.
As of now they are living their best life in a Houston warehouse, much like those Christmas pajamas you ordered last year from Amazon.
American Scheme
When announcing your plan to move the company headquarters from Australia to the United States, there may be better ways to refer to it than as a collection of schemes.
But also, if you're operating a weed/psychedelic company, accidental honesty can be refreshing.
AIS Biotech
This company launched with the goal of fighting the flu with carbohydrates.
Dudes! Gatorade beat you to it by about 35 years.
Biotech Killers
We mentioned Crossbow Therapeutics last week, which was a nice addition to our BioPharmory.
They join Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Dart NeuroScience & Slingshot Biosciences.
We also have Castle Biosciences & Moat Biotechnology who teamed up to repel Marauder Therapeutics (which duly changed its name to CAMP4 Therapeutics).
A violent group here.
Website Roast - A New Era
If it weren't for a recent date shown by a homepage news item, we would have thought this website was a relic from an earlier time. But no, it's active, and it is glorious.
Seven-month-old livestream as the lead item? Correct!
Screenshots from Fox News at the ready? Check!
News item from seven years ago still on the homepage? Yes!
Mobile unfriendly layout? No doubt!
Look out 2007, Nanoviricides is ready for ya!
