Terrible, terrible chemical joke

Q. Why does a beef pattie have less energy than a steak?

A. Because it is in the ground state.


I assume this is a very old joke, but I've managed to avoid it until now.

One atom to another:

Damn... I think I just lost an electron.

>>> Are you sure?

Yes, I'm positive!

Just made this one up

Sorry in advance.

A Higgs Boson walks into a bar with a sad look on its face and the barman says, "What's the matter?"



Part 2...

He was then feeling a little empty in life so he then went to mass.

This one is a little risque, but what the heck.

Title: A Sexual Encounter between a Capacitor and an Inductor

One evening, with his charge at full capacity, Micro Farad decided to get a cute coil to discharge him. He went to the Magnet Bar to pick up a chip called Millie Amp. He caught her out back trying self induction; fortunately, she had not damaged her solenoid. The two took off on his megacycle and rode across the Wheatstone Bridge into a magnetic field, next to a flowing current , to watch the sine waves.

Micro Farad was very much stimulated by Millie's characteristic curve. Being attractive himself, he soon had her field fully excited. He set her on the ground potential, raised his frequency, lowered her resistance, and pulled out his high voltage probe. When he inserted it in parallel, he short-circuited her shunt. Fully excited, Millie cried out, "ohm, ohm, give me mho". As he increased his tube to maximum output, her coil vibrated from the current flow. It did not take long for her shunt to reach maximum heat. Now with the excessive current shortening her shunt, Micro's capacity rapidly discharged – every electron was drained off. But that was not the end of it. Indeed, they fluxed all night, tried various connections and hookings until his bar magnet weakened, and he could no longer generate enough voltage to sustain his collapsing field. With his battery fully discharged, Micro was unable to excite his tickler, so they went home. A few weeks later, they were merged forever and oscillated happily ever after.

I admit I don't fully understand all the theories but still find the jokes hilarious! Esp the last one.

A ghost walks into a beer hall and orders a rum and coke. The barman says "Sorry, we don't serve spirits here"

If a man speaks in the forest, and there is no woman there to hear him, is he still wrong?

I have to save the (Age appropriate) ones here to trot out against my 8 year old as dad jokes.
