SUMMARY

This forum discussion centers around a collection of science jokes, particularly those involving mathematics and physics. Notable jokes include a mathematician with a dog and cow discussing knot theory, and a play on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. The humor often relies on advanced concepts such as the Jones polynomial and topological invariants, showcasing a blend of wit and scientific terminology. The conversation also touches on the cultural significance of these jokes within the scientific community.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of knot theory and the Jones polynomial
  • Familiarity with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
  • Basic knowledge of topology and topological invariants
  • Awareness of mathematical humor and its conventions
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the concept of knot theory in mathematics
  • Learn about the Jones polynomial and its applications
  • Study Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics
  • Investigate the role of humor in scientific communication
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, physicists, educators, and anyone interested in the intersection of humor and science will benefit from this discussion.

It must be a "really dark club"! (society)
I'm afraid to sign up ...

8. Our club life lies mostly in the dark. However, from time to time an M&A of our franchises cannot be avoided. This might make some waves in public. Be prepared.

If I would want to invest in your club will I get my interest as black money radiation?
You get your money only if it evaporates.

The Black Hole Club
Members must always maintain appearance to the outside worlds as if they're yet to join the club, even though they have long since passed the hazing rituals.

- Spaghetti is not just a food, it is also the way you will enter the club.

And by what method should we use, to become spaghettified?
hmmmm...
(google google google)

Ah ha!

When entering the club, one must lose one's clothing, becoming singularly naked, and don some ramen type clothing. Available at amazon.com for between $29.99 & $34.99, USD.

If entering the club with someone else, you must argue incessantly regarding noodle/pasta/ramen/spaghetti quadrality, where they are all the same thing at once, but can be viewed differently, depending on which culinary experiment one is going to feast upon, once you've had time, if and only if time actually exists in the club, after looking at the menu.

I just started swimming, so if there's no swimming in the club ... no way!

e.g. "Swimming in Spacetime: Motion by Cyclic Changes in Body Shape"

Count me in! Ou yeah! ... count me in!
It's an opportunity to also learn how to swim in dark ... and in fierce gravity.
Any known black hole as a canditate for the premises?

There's a kind of sausage here named "Krakower" (transscripted). No wonder I couldn't solve the riddle.

2 guys "from Krakow" (or can say it with 2 blondes - no offense to either ...)
Sitting in a cafeteria, against the mirror, on the other side:

"Look look! Two guys just like us, over there. Let's go meet them!"
[Standing up ...] ... [Pause]
"Ok, never mind, they're coming here! ..."
[Sitting down]

Clear evidence that the chicken got there before the eggs.
... and that their reputation is completely false: It takes braveness "to bear with unbearable sorrow, to run where the brave dare not go".
