Situs invertus totalis. And yes, there is yuri featuring it. It is technically wholesome but feels a bit forced (humans’ external anatomy is symmetrical so SIT is not as bad as snail’s)

How is this a science meme
Science because it’s a rare biological condition, called sinistral (as opposed to dextral) chirality.
Meme because it’s a funny and relatable thing on the internet.
Using this loose logic, literally anything can be related to science and be called a science meme
Not having to worry about gender/sexuality (except asexuality I guess) in your dating pool and still failing
this does cause speciation when they cant mate with a differently coiled snail, down the line.
Damn, so that’s what it feels like to be left-handed…
Kinda yeah.
Not really. At all.
So snails can mate with any sex?
Snail sexes are clockwise, counterclockwise, and Jeremy
I have the urge to print, frame and hang this comment on the wall.
they are hermaphrodites, so they mate with any other snail of the same species, and the same coiled shell.
Most terrestrial snails are hermaphrodites, so it’s more like they can only mate with their own sex. But it’s a bit more complicated than that; they typically produce sperm earlier than they produce egg cells, to discourage self-fertilisation, so you could argue they start male and end female.
Youth to inject random new genes for testing and age to work with what’s tried and true …. Huh.
Depends on the type of snail, there are male, female, hermaphroditic and parthenogenetic types. Since they wrote “his reproductive organs”, Jeremy is probably a hermaphroditic snail.
Also Jeremy is an asshole because he eats all the cookies, and that makes everyone hate him.
Don’t be like Jeremy.
King Jeremy the wicked rules his world
Doesn’t it depend on whether you are looking at the left or the right side of the shell?
No, you’re thinking of clockwise vs counter clockwise.
As the shell spirals around itself, it does not create a flat disk. Rather, it creates a cone shape.
If Jeremy was pointed North, the point of his cone would point to the west, while most other snails would point east.
You can see it in the photo on this post.
No, Jeremy’s left!

But all three seem to be coiling in the same direction? All tilt to the left side and coil clockwise.
