  I think they actually do know what they are doing and therefore there hypothesis is incorrect

  They are perfectly following the scientific method:

  Set up a hypothesis (I don’t know what I am doing)

  Formulate a contrary null hypothesis (I know what I am doing) and try to prove it (if I know what I am doing, I will be able to do science stuff)

  Notice that your experiment actually proves your null hypothesis, therefore rejecting your original claim

  Panic, as negative results can not be published and a lack of publications threatens both the funding for your scientific career as well as your livelihood

  Bend the data a little bit and throw any negative data because everybody is probably doing this

  Proclaim you have proven your hypothesis

    “Of course I know what I’m doing! I just don’t know what effect it’s going to have when I do it.”

  The tone of this comic reminds me of this video which I find equally funny
