That’s a perfect example of copy editor humor. I just told it to C, and she laughed and laughed . . . ---

That’s one of my favorite (clean) jokes, but the version I know has an additional passenger: Heisenberg, Schrodinger, and Ohm are in a car together when they’re pulled over by a policeman. He walks up and asks Heisenberg, “Do you know how fast you were going?” “No idea. But I do know where I am.” Heisenberg replies. The policeman says, “Well, you were doing 55 in a 35mph zone.” Heisenberg throws his arms up in exasperation and shouts, “Great! Now I’m lost!” The policeman thinks this is suspicious, so he has them pop the trunk for a search. He checks it out and says, “Did you know you have a dead cat in here?” This time it’s Schrodinger who angrily responds, “We do now! Thanks a lot jackass!” The policeman has had enough and moves to arrest them. Ohm resists. ---

A biologist, a physicist, and a mathematician are watching a house from across the street. As they watch, two people go into the house. Somewhat later, three people come out. The biologist: “They’ve reproduced.” The physicist: “Apparently the number of people is not conserved.” The mathematician: “Now if one person goes into that house, it will be empty.” ---

Occasionally I make up jokes that are too obscure even for me. > “I found myself in a state of nervous ecstacy while contemplating a picture of Marie-Henri Beyle. There ought to be a name for that.” or indeed > A cabalist is given the choice of any one decanic Word to learn. He chooses Sphandôr, the decan of knowledge. His friends ask: now all wisdom is within your grasp. What is the first and most important thing you have learned? > > “Should have chosen Buldumêch.” ---

One of my favorite types of humor is Soviet/Communist jokes, mostly but not always from the Soviet Union. For example, one I read in Arthur Koestler’s _The Act of Creation_: Teacher: Tell me, comrade, what is capitalism? Student: The exploitation of man by man. Teacher: And what is communism? Student: The reverse! ---

> [@whswhs](#): > > Soviet/Communist jokes My favourite joke my father ever taught me: “Comrade, what would you do if you had two houses?” “Why Comrade, I would keep one, and I would give one to the Party!” “Exactly! And what would you do if you had two cars, Comrade?” “Why, I would keep one, and I would give the other to the Party, Comrade!” “Quite! And what would you do if you had two bikes, Comrade?” “Now wait a minute Comrade, I have two bikes…” ---
