Re: post the nerdiest joke you know
short version:
2 hunting buddies decide to take their statistician friend duck hunting with them for the weekend. they get out early, and get set up and wait. the new guy is pretty excited to be out with the boys. pretty soon, they spot a few ducks heading their way. the new guy decides to hang back the first time and watch his buddies shoot. so one duck starts flying toward them, and the his buddies take aim. the first guy shoots and misses just off to the right. the second guy pulls the trigger right after, and misses just to the left. the statistician jumps up and screams 'We got him boys! We got him!'

Re: post the nerdiest joke you know
[ QUOTE ]
Descartes walks into a bar. The bartender walks up to him and says, "Would you care for a drink?" Descartes replied, "I think not." and disappears. [/ QUOTE ] I remember this joke being told in some capacity on these forums in the past. David Sklansky get upset because the punchline does not follow logically ("I think therefore I am" does not imply "I don't think therefore I am not"). I thought the argument was funny.

Re: post the nerdiest joke you know
These sure made up for a horrid day at the actual subject matter of this site -
I don't have one in the standard form to contribute, but I do remember the one 'joke' in Thomas Aquinas's Summa Theologica - "Argument from authority is the weakest form of argument, according to Boethius." I think it's only good if you've been reading pages and pages of dense philosophy.
