A mathematician cop pulls over a metaphorically speeding and swerving physicist, but thankfully he let's her go with a warning. Please don't drink and derive.

My school career wasn't quite as straightforward as that.

At primary school in the 60s, we did calculations in ft+in, or lb+oz, or £+s+d.

At secondary school in the 70s, we did calculations in m+cm, or kg+g, or £+p. A whole lot easier.

(Of course all the above was with pen and paper only; no such thing as calculators.)

Will Any Crap We Put into Graphene Increase Its Electrocatalytic Effect?
We demonstrate in the following text the meaninglessness of the never-ending co-doping of graphene. We decided to follow the hyperbole of ever multiplying dopants; however, instead of using expensive and toxic chemicals such as ammonia, fluorine, chlorine, boranes, etc., we took a page from the pre-Haber–Bosch era and sought natural materials for the fertilization of graphene and used guano as a dopant.

There was a story on the Daily WTF about someone demanding a warranty repair for a computer with shotgun damage.
That story reminded me of the very funny scene in Office Space where three workers take revenge on a difficult printer: link. (note: there is some foul language in the music)

"
An engineer crosses a road when a frog calls out to him, “If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess.”
He bends over, picks up the frog and puts it in his pocket.
The frog speaks up again and says, “If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will stay with you for one week.”
The engineer takes the frog out of his pocket, smiles at it and returns it to the pocket.
The frog then cries out, “If you kiss me and turn me back, I’ll stay with you for a month and do whatever you say!”
Again the engineer takes the frog out, smiles at it and puts it back into his pocket.
Finally, the frog asks, “What is the matter? I’ve told you I’m a beautiful princess, I’ll stay with you for a month and do whatever you say. What more do you want?”
“Look, I’m an engineer,” the man replies. “I don’t have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now that’s cool!”

Did you hear about scientist who came up with a belief about thread, yarn, and cords?

It was called string theory.
