So You Think Physics is Funny? 926
mzs writes "I just found this article in PhysicsWorld by Robert P. Crease detailing some of the 'better' physics jokes that readers sent him in response to an earlier article. Read about why the elements of magnetic flux are hard to understand or about the sexual adventures of Alice and Bob in a bar. Let's use the comments for this article to list more jokes from our technical professions which are funny but not necessarily to those outside of the field. I will close with this gem from the article: 'What's new?' 'E over h.'"

Of course. Psychology, for instance, is wrapped-up physics, too. But when was the last time you heard someone refer to a psychology joke as a physics joke?

This is impossible. In order to be found the cat must first be observed, but this would bring the cat's wave function immediately into one of the eigenstates, either dead OR alive.
