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 2 months ago

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

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

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

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.

You can observe that this dark matter joke is funny:

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months 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.

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

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

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.
