I had a joke on the new particle the CERN found, but I've been advised the topic is too heavy

I have a neutrino joke I wanted to tell, but the punchline is almost impossible to spot

This actually made me laugh out loud, it's so fucking irredeemably awful 😂

[–] rockerface@lemmy.cafe 9 points 1 week ago

Thanks, I had to go through a giant tank of water to spot this one

I have a UDP joke but you may not get it.

Do you want to hear a TCP joke?

I'd tell you a joke about brown dwarves, but it's kinda dark...

Someone once told me an airplane joke, but it flew right over my head.

Living next to an airport will do that to you

I have a joke about Higgs Boson, but it doesn’t have mass appeal.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

I have a charm quark joke, but it might sound strange

I have an Omega Molecule joke, but we're not allowed to talk about it.

I've got a graviton joke, but don't want the mood to get too heavy.

[–] BillyClark@piefed.social 8 points 1 week ago

You can observe that this dark matter joke is funny:

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

It doesn't matter what time you think it's the right one, the black hole will get it anyway.

I'd tell a reduction reaction joke, but I want to stay positive.

[–] JoShmoe@ani.social 6 points 1 week ago

I had a joke about superposition, but it never sounds the same.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

I've got a photon joke, but I'm not sure you'd see the humor.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

I see a photon joke coming.

I had a joke about gravity, but I think it'll let you down and it may fall flat.
