Well, they have their uncertainties to gain some privacy. Btw is it correct that a joke is only one coordinate of the punchline invariant four yawn-laughter vector?
 
  • #2,943
Jokes are certainly not punchline-invariant, they only work with certain punchline frames.

I'm not sure about the vector you propose here.

I noticed my salt shaker was empty and the TV remote wasn't working, so I went to the shops, got my items, and went to the checkout. They charged me for salt and battery.

The FACT that the best source of lame jokes is stand-up comedy should be common sense by now.

For those in doubt, this is not supposed to be a joke.

I swear I was staring at the image in confusion and scratching my head for a full 20 minutes or so. But once I got one, the other followed almost immediately.

Actually, everybody was really happy about gravity and inertia because you didn't have to flap along madly to keep up with the Earth anymore. We used to be like sharks, swimming all the time so as not to suffocate.

Also, Newton apparently invented "retro" fashion if he was in that get-up in 1869.

It is hard to keep up with fashion if you are dead. I guess Newton was buried with whatever was trendy in 1727.

Indeed. If, per the picture, he was working in 1869 he must also have invented the intelligent undead trope (as opposed to the animalistic killer sort), indirectly bringing us the Twilight Saga.

By the way, what do vegetarian zombies eat?

Graiiiiiins
