So a bunch of physicists walk into a bar..
Went to a Friday Fish Fry with some physicists & Uwe, and afterward we headed over to the Jazz Estate afterwards while Uwe went across to visit Cory the Bike Fixer for a while. I think it is probably rare for five people to walk into a bar early on a Friday night and soon realize that everyone there - all of us, the other patron (happened to be a fellow grad student), and the bartender - all hold degrees in physics.
The hilarity that ensued, though perhaps funnier when drunk, nearly had me falling off the stool in laughter.
"Seth says there's no such things as a computer experiement unless you toss it off a cliff."
"That's not true. You could also set it on fire."
"You're just a collection of fucking bound state wavefunction superpositions."
"Oh yeah? I challenge you! Come over here and walk right through me!"
It was fun hanging out with Mike, who I hadn't seen much of since he got married last year. And Uwe had a good time with us, which was happifying because I like when he enjoys joining my social life. He got to start talking bottom bracket geometry with Seth and kept up with our geek level. And I managed to get smashed and still be home by 11!
