Guest Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 The definition of "obscure" varies, but my definition is that if it presupposes specialized, or otherwise "uncommon knowledge", it'll work. If that doesn't apply, but you can make a case for it's being obscure or have told it and confused people, then tell it anyway. I'll start it off with three of my tested favorites... Knock knock. Who's there? Interrupting coefficient of friction. Interrupting coefficien-- Mu!! So, Rene Descartes is in a bar near closing time. The bartender asks him, "Would you like another drink?" Descartes replies, "I think not" and vanishes. After Descartes disappears, the bartender turns to Heisenberg. "Wow, did you see that?" the bartender asks, to which Heisenberg replies, "Possibly, but I can't be sure." Why do Marxists only drink herbal tea? Because proper tea is theft.

Thalia Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 ummmm, can you explain those, please? well, i use "obscure jokes" every time i talk about my friends and what crazy things we did that day... the coefficient of friction is represented by the greek letter Mu or m."I think, therefore I am."-Rene Descartes, Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle.I don't know much about Marxism or socialism but I think it's a play on property (or proper tea).Does that help?

Guest Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 My brother told me this one. In the physics department toilet someone has spray painted a large graffiti on the wall, it reads "Werner Heisenberg may have been here" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Werner Heisenberg, Kurt Gödel, and Noam Chomsky walk into a bar. Heisenberg turns to the other two and says, "Clearly this is a joke, but how can we figure out if it's funny or not?" Gödel replies, "We can't know that because we're inside the joke." Chomsky says, "Of course it's funny. You're just telling it wrong." Curiosity may or may not have killed Schrödinger's cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I thought it was because Linux has a penguin for a logo and Unix kinda sounds like it's related to union and stuff... my mistake.

Guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 That is my attempt to translate a joke I read in portuguese. Enjoy So there were two function walking together, f(x)= C and g(x)= ex. They saw a derivative and f ran away, because she didn't want to become 0, but g stayed and said "you can't do anything against me, I'm ex". And the derivative replied "well, looks like you're wrong, because I'm d/dy". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) That is my attempt to translate a joke I read in portuguese. Enjoy So there were two functions walking together, f(x)= C and g(x)= ex. They saw a differential operator and f ran away, because she didn't want to become 0, but g stayed and said "you can't do anything against me, I'm ex". And the differential operator replied "well, looks like you're wrong, because I'm d/dy". Other than that, it's pretty well translated. Q: Why are quantum physicists so poor at sex? Because when they find the position, they can't find the momentum, and when they have the momentum, they can't find the position. A student riding in a train looks up and sees Einstein sitting next to him. Excited he asks, "Excuse me, professor. Does Boston stop at this train?"
