Celebrate surviving the Great Ecology Email Chain with these painfully accurate memes
‘Was going to drink tonight, but remembered I have an ecology report due at 2pm’
If you heard a ricochet of Outlook notifications from level three yesterday, you are not alone. My phone almost blew up from the amount of notifications, and the whole of Durham has never felt so popular seeing that many emails flood their inbox.
However, a sober reminder from Kieran Lawrence shattered the souls of students everywhere thinking they have reached the end of their workload.. little did they know its time to sit back down at the desk, crack open a Red Bull and start writing an ecology report; even if you have never studied ecology in your life.
Confusion soon turned into chaos when the “reply all” button was clicked more times than ChatGPT and students were questioning what their degree actually is. Soon enough, a simple chain about an ecology report quickly turned into warnings of a potential hedgehog infestation in the Billy B, a recital of the Bee Movie script, and turning outlook into a dating forum.
These are the best Durham ecology email chain memes TikTok and Facebook has to offer:

What a better way to cure the dissertation blues than having Outlook to amuse. That being said, if only the same amount of effort put into reading a 250 plus Durham ecology email chain was put into my dissertation (just kidding..).
