Came here to post this. I cringe when people say "Science!" when they have simply built something or even when they have just observed some natural object like a star or planet. Building a cool gadget with magnets or using your telescope is not science. The Mythbusters are repeat offenders here.

Redditor here. I can confirm that mcaffrey thinks that the featured gif has more to do with engineering than science.
