In summary: It's a humor that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness. It's not for everyone.Not a fan of surrealism, I take it?In summary, surrealism is an art form that relies on absurdity and unexpectedness, often producing incongruous imagery or effects. It may not be appreciated by everyone, but for those who do, it can be quite humorous.

The calculus professor on ocw.mit was explaining the reason why it's important to be sure that a function is an indeterminate form before applying a certain limit rule involving derivatives. He closed the lecture with a word of advice:

"You should always look before you L'hop"

You are correct. However, that is a true story. Somewhere in the single variable calculus video lectures he says that, pronouncing it "Lop".

Lame Science Jokes

I don't know about everyone else here, but I'm a sucker for the lame science jokes or puns.

eg.

hydrogen atom 1 said
"I think I've lost an electron"

Hydrogen atom 2 replied
"are you sure?"

hydrogen atom 1 said
"yes, I am positive"

Hydrogen atom 2 replied
"well then, you better keep an ion them"


Anyone willing to share some science jokes? :biggrin:

miniradman:

Great P-Chem joke, but I think it would have been a bit stronger had it stopped with the line: "Yes, I am positive!"***

Anyways, I have a few scientific daffynitions:

GI Tract: Real Estate term for an army base.

Expansion Joint: Honkey-tonk with an addition attached.

Carbon Ring: Organized coal thieves.

Dark Flow: Diarrhea (Sorry 'bout that!)

***

I have a few more, but i can't think of them right now.

Actually, a superior conductor would leave the bar with minimal resistance, whereas only a PERFECT conductor would leave the bar without any resistance.

Anyways, a teenaged girl spent a weekend with both her pairs of grandparents. Each grandparent presented her with the pair of blue denim trousers they had worn at Woodstock. The young lady gratefully realized that she had received one-quarter of her jeans from each of her grandparents!

Not a silhouette. It's a face with a mouth and an eye.

A small-town guy gets a job in New York. He finds an apartment in Queens, figuring he'll take the subway to work every day.

On the first day, he notices that one of his fellow passengers is rather hairy with a heavy brow. He's wearing a loincloth of animal skin and carrying a stone spear. In short, a Neanderthal. Nobody else seems to be paying attention (you know how the subway is), but the guy can't believe his eyes. Eventually, he plucks up courage to ask.

"Excuse me, sir. I hope you don't mind my asking, but... Are you a Neanderthal?"

"Yes. Yes, I am," answers the Neanderthal. "Why do you ask?"

"Oh, no reason, no reason," answers the guy. "It's just... Well, I thought you guys went extinct."

"Well New York is a blue state," answers the Neanderthal. "But there are still a few of us around."

"Right, right," says the guy, and a short silence falls.

"New to the city, are you?" asks the Neanderthal, politely.

"Oh yeah," answers the guy. "I just moved here at the weekend. I'm from Montana originally, a town called Hamilton."

The Neanderthal's face suddenly goes blank and he takes a step back. At that moment, the train pulls into a station and the Neanderthal backs off the train and disappears into the crowd. Everybody left in the subway car is staring at the guy in an unfriendly way. Not really sure what he's done, he thinks he'd better find out. One lady looks less unsympathetic than the others, so he decides to ask her.

"I'm sorry, I'm new here. Can you tell me what I said wrong?"

"You really must be new," answers the lady. "Everyone around here knows: you never evolve if you commute with a Hamiltonian."

I feel like this might win the award for the most contrived joke ever. Still funny, though.
