Comments - It Never Worked Before: Nine Intellectual Jokes

A curated collection of intellectual jokes that actually teach interesting ideas and make you think, not just rely on insider-jargon and smart-people stereotypes The one about the mathematician's always been one of my favorites. Reminds me of: Three logicians walk into a bar. The bartender asks: "Do you all want a drink?" The first logician says: "I don't know." The second logician says: "I don't know."
