"Scientists announced that they have located the gene for alcoholism. Scientists say they found it at a party, talking way too loudly"

- Conan O'Brien

About this Quote

This quote by Conan O'Brien is a humorous take on the recent scientific development of locating the gene for alcoholism. The joke implies that the gene was not discovered in a lab, but rather at a celebration, talking too loudly. This is an amusing way of highlighting the truth that the gene was found through a clinical process, and not through a wild night out. The quote also indicates that the gene for alcohol addiction is a personification of the stereotyped party-goer, who talks too loudly and consumes too much. This humorous take on the scientific breakthrough is a light-hearted way of acknowledging the importance of the discovery.
