for science

An exclamation used to justify whenever someone does something just for the heck of it, or to see what would happen; it was not done needlessly, but rather for the advancement of science!
Typically spoken of either in a comical Bill Nye way or in an insane, mad scientist way. Props, like a working Tesla coil, are recommended but not required.
- Dude, we have to microwave this lump of moldy cheese... FOR SCIENCE!
- I need to put a duck in a vat of Jell-o. FOR SCIENCE!
etc.

For Science

Much like for reasons, “for science” is used to gather information on a person/thing where direct reasoning is not needed but heavily implied. Often used to find the name of a girl with big breasts/cheeks.

OR...

Can also be used to figure out something stupid, probably involving explosions or broken bones.
Scenario #1 - “What’s her name? I need it for, uh...for science.

Scenario #2 - “Let’s mix petroleum and a box of lit matches, FOR SCIENCE!”

Scenario #2.1 - Person A - “Hey go jump the rail into that lion enclosure!”
Person B - “And why the fuck would I do that?”
Person A - “Uh...for, err...science?”
Person B - “Ok, sounds good to me!”

What Venturian used to say before adding thrusters to everything.
Vent: *adds a fuck ton of thrusters* This is for science.

For Science

When you see someone that you know you either don’t have a chance with or simply wouldn’t usually go for, but the opportunity shows, you wouldn’t turn it down out of simple curiosity. The idea comes from the way a hypothetical statement is set up. IF I had sex with this person, THEN I would know what it’s like with that person specifically.
“Well I just feel like he would be good in bed, I totally would, for science”

thomas jefferson high school for science and technology 

A high school located in Northern Virginia, known as TJ or TJHSST. Focuses on science and technology. Applicants must take an admissions test consisting of an English and math portion. This is compared on a sliding scale with their GPA, and if these scores are above the cut off they make it to the second round, which requires an essay and teacher recommendations. A large number of asians attend this school. The class of 2012 was the first class where asians were actually the majority, instead of caucasians.

Has a reputation of being bad at sports because there football and basketball teams are not very good. But actually their boys soccer, cross country, crew, swimming, and several other sports have all won either states or nationals recently.

Rated by US News & World Report as the number 1 high school in the country.
Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology is a really spirited high school since kids choose to be there.

the academy for science and design 

Called ASD, it is by far the worst school ever.

It contains girls who think they're awesome but they really aren't. I only know two girls who are actually cool there. Most of them think that aeropostale is the most fashionable brand (hint: it's not) and are hideous with glasses.

The guys are all obsessed with video games and computer programming (I know, wtf?)
Most people at ASD are Indians who think they're attractive/cool but in fact are not. The academics are great but socially it's the worst school ever (I mean seriously? There were like 15 graduates last year!!!!!!!). Also the teachers there are extremely biased.
Person 1: Have you heard of the Academy for Science and Design?
Person 2: Yeah, isn't that the smart person school?
Person 1: Uh huh, but the people are annoying.
