Title: Groaners!
Post by: snabbott on February 19, 2013, 11:18:32 AM
I don't know about you, but I enjoy making bad jokes and puns, and where better to share them than the Asylum?

Here are some puns with a common theme:

Imitation diamond?
[spoiler]shamrock[/spoiler]

Fake poop?
[spoiler]shampoo[/spoiler]

Feigned ache?
[spoiler]champagne[/spoiler]

And then there are a couple that only science people (and only some of them) will get. I'll share them anyway. :P Delling, at least, should get them (I think). These are particularly bad. You have been warned.

What do you call a biochemist's spelling checker?
[spoiler]A typoisomerase.
topoisomerase = protein that changes how tightly DNA is wound.
isomer = same atoms but rearranged[/spoiler]

What do you call a display of human cell culture?
[spoiler]A HeLa case
HeLa = human cancer cell line
helicase = protein that unwinds DNA[/spoiler]

What about you? Any groaners to share? :P

[spoiler]Dorky![/spoiler]

Do we do this in the Q. A. format, or can we do other things like "Holy One-Liners, Batman?"

The format is up to you!
