On the internet I am known as Slip. I am a 22 year old nerdface who practically lives and breathes laboratory medicine.

Moraxella lacunata, direct gram smear. The last time I saw these was on an eye infection. These guys have a pretty distinct shape on the smear, but mostly I find it neat that they pit the media. It goes without saying that they will also make pits in your eyeball if you get them there.
