Nerd Humor!

So a quantum physicist is speeding down the highway and predictably he gets pulled over. The police officer walks up to the driver's window.

"Sir, do you know how fast you're goin?"

"No, sir, but I do know exactly where I am!"

Immanuel Kant walks into a bar … only he doesn’t, a prerequisite of movement being three-dimensional space, which is merely an illusory construct of pure intuition.

A Roman walks into a bar.
"I'll have a martinus."
"Don't you mean martini?" asks the bartender.
"No. If I wanted a double, I'd say so."

A hydrogen atom comes into the police station. "Help!" it cries, "I've been ionised!"

The policeman asks "Are you sure?"

The hydrogen atom replies "Yes, I'm positive!"

Courtesy of SMBC's comic strip one day...

A boy was taking a test in school and the following question was asked:
"How many valence electrons in a Hydrogen Atom?"
He answered two.
The correct answer was one.
Later that day he met a genie who said he could grant any wish and asked the boy what would he wish for.
"I wish I got that answer right."
"DONE!"
The Universe exploded.
It's not about winning or losing, no it's all about how many chapters have you added to the rule books after your crazy antics.

A neutron walks into a bar and asks for a drink. The bartender hands over the drink and the neutron asks how much he owes.
The bartender replies, "for you, no charge."

Never trust an atom. They make up everything.

A History Student, a Physics Student and a Maths Student shared a flat.

One day the History Student's bin caught fire! Quickly he poured water on the fire, causing s mess but putting out the fire.

Next day the Physics Student's bin caught fire!  Grabbing a pen and paper he worked out the exact amount of water needed to put the fire out, then put it out.

On the third day the Maths Student's bin caught fire! Grabbing a pen and paper he worked out the exact amount of water needed to put the fire out, then confident the problem had been solved went to bed.
