I don't have anything necessarily useful to post, other than the fact that I started reading Einstein's
Reletivity: The Special and General Theory
, but I've got nothing to say on the subject yet. This is my favourite forum so I wanted to post in it. Today I've been reading a bunch of geeky science jokes, here are some of my favourite's, post some of yours.
Heisenberg was speeding down the highway, a cop pulled him over and asked him, "Do you know how fast you were going?" To which Heisenberg replied, "No, but I know where I am."
Two engineers needed to find the height of a flagpoll. They tried various methods; throwing a stone up to the top and measuring the time it took to for it to come down, measuring the shadow and what angle the sun was on, etc... A mathematician came along and said "What in the hell are you two doing throwing rocks at the flag?" The first engineer replied "Well, we need to find the height of this flagpoll, but no matter what we do our margin of error is too great." The mathematician promtly stepped up to the flagpoll, layed it on the ground, and took out a measuring tape and measured it. "Wow," the first engineer said, "how come we didn't think of that?" To which the second replied, while shaking his head, "What are you talking about?" We want its height, not its length!"
Two hydrogen atoms were walking down the street. The first turned to the other and said "I think I lost an electron." The second replied, "Really, are you sure?" The first responded, "Yes, I'm positive!"
Q: How does one insult a mathematician?
A: You say: "Your brain is smaller than any (epsilon)>0!"
A student riding in a train looks up and sees Einstein sitting next to him. Excited he asks, "Excuse me, professor, does Boston stop at this train?"
Q: How many theoretical physicists specializing in general relativity does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Two, one to hold the bulb, and another to rotate the universe. |
