In "micro-chat" (going on right now), micromass said (roughly):
"I am at -273°C, but ... hey! I'm '0K' ! ..."

When I asked for permission to quote the joke from the mutual discussion, julian answered: "Absolutely!" ...

From the Tweets reproduced on that page, I think DeKalb County PD would be right at home on this thread.

There was a young man from Japan,
Whose limericks just wouldn't scan,
When he was asked why,
He said in reply,
"I'm not really sure but I think it might be because I always try to cram as many words into the last line as I possibly can".

I have to quote my favourite "anti-limerick" due to W S Gilbert:

There was an old man of St. Bees,
Who was stung in the arm by a wasp,
When asked, "Does it hurt?"
He replied, "No, it doesn't,​
I'm so glad that it wasn't a hornet."​

And this mathematical limerick due to Leigh Mercer:

## (12 + 144 + 20 ##
## + 3\sqrt{4} )##
## \div 7 ##
## + 5 \times 11 ##​
## = 9^2 + 0 ##​

A dozen, a gross, and a score
Plus three times the square root of four
Divided by seven
Plus five times eleven​
Is nine squared and not a bit more.​

An Egyptian and a Greek:

E: Hey, great news from back home! After digging under the pyramids they discovered and found wires and cables, which means they had telephony back then!
[, so all civilization did in fact start from Egypt!]

G: Hey, that's nothing! No big deal. In Greece, while digging under Acropolis in the greek ruins, to construct the Athens "Metro" (US: subway, UK: underground), they discovered and found nothing! (no wires or cables etc.)

E: So!? So what?

G: It means they had mobile telephony back then! ...

No, they were jokes that didn't make it even to the level of "lame jokes."

Swiss cheese has holes.
More cheese means more holes.
More holes means less cheese.
Ergo: More cheese is less cheese.
