Pyridine :(

 I enjoy my job, I do. It's interesting and I never have to do exactly the same reaction twice, that's probably as close to ideal as it's going to get for now. However I am frequently reminded, generally in ways that stick, that as a second year undergraduate I know nothing. Today's lesson was in pyridine

This is a post as beautiful as pyridine is terrible. It is the "surprise!" at the end which truly makes it. Also, presumably "aromaticity"...is not...a reference...to its actual smell? See, this is why you should do a degree with no practical or experimental applications whatsoever, like me!

Yeah, aromaticity is a technical term although it does actually come from the fact that most of them smell. :)
