What do you get when you mix a polar bear and a neutrino? A polar-neutrino!

In summary, the conversation revolved around a speech on neutrino research at the south pole, with the speaker being a 19-year-old sophomore in college. They were looking for some physics and math jokes to break the ice, and some humorous references were made to neutrinos and the Antarctic project.

Ok I have a speech to deliver in a few weeks. It is on neutrino research at the south pole. I will be leaving soon to go to McMurdo Bay. I am only 19 and a Sophomore in College after this semester. I am very excited but would like to break the ice in style(pun intended)lol. So I need some of your best Physics and math jokes. Thanks everyone.

How about: "My mother-in-law is so dense she absorbs neutrinos"?

Neutrino astronomy is one of the only branches of astronomy where it's okay to get stuck on the day shift.

I've got nothin...

Just something funny about the antarctic project you're referring to that a friend of mine pointed out to me. In HP Lovecraft's books Yog Sothoth's appearance is described as that of several iridescent globes and the antarctic nuetrino detector array is a series of mirrored globes.

Sort of related:

The Americans have astronauts, the Russians have cosmonauts, the Italians have Specimen.

Q: What happens when neutrinos drink beer?
A: It goes right through them.

If Newt Gingrich and Janet Reno had a love child its name would be "Neutrino".

(I have to take the blame for this one:blushing:)

1. What do you get when you cross a joke with physics?

You get a laughing matter!

2. Why are quantum physicists bad at relationships?

Because when they find the momentum, they can't locate the position!

3. How many physicists does it take to change a lightbulb?

Just one, but they'll need a lot of energy!

4. What is the difference between a physicist and a philosopher?

A physicist will try to explain the universe, while a philosopher will try to explain why the universe is!

5. Why did the chicken cross the road?

To measure the gravitational pull on the other side!
