This Facebook Group Is All About “Science Humor”, Here Are 50 Of Their Most Hilarious Posts (New Pics)
Remember how your high school science teacher would say that science can be fun? That meant either lab work or a group assignment, which for many kids was just as far from the definition of fun as preparing for a science class test.
Fast forward to today, and things have changed. Many young adults appreciate the things they never did, find new hobbies and passions, develop a sense of nostalgia, and realize they were always a nerd to begin with…
So in order to show you exactly how nerdy we all are deep down, we present you the “Science Humor” Facebook group devoted to posting the best science-related laughs, cartoons, puns, jokes, japes, antics, and you name it!
With a whopping 1.2M members, the group is basically a powerhouse blending education, knowledge and internet comedy. Below we wrapped up some of the funniest and most recent posts from the page to treat your inner nerd, so scroll down!
After you’re done, be sure to check out our previous feature with more jokes from Science Humor right here.

This is the flaw in schrodingers cat. We already know if there is a box a cat will be in it
You are blowing my mind right meow. (Sorry, not sorry).
Load More Replies...Dogs have "squirrels!" Cats have "ooo, I love my box." Humans have computers. All is well and good.
No.....it doesn't.....(I'm awaiting correction 😁)
Load More Replies...What's even sadder is that false information on Boredpanda gets multiple upvotes, but giving a truthful correction has seen me downvoted to a ban more than once.
Because in this new upside down world the truth will not set you free and must be banned as not to offend the imbeciles.

You may wonder why some people find science jokes and memes funny while others couldn’t care less about them. Well, it all comes down to a broader question of why and how people find particular things funny. Previously, Bored Panda spoke with a British neuroscientist and Wellcome Trust Senior Fellow at University College London, Sophie Scott. Scott has been investigating the cognitive neuroscience of voices, speech and laughter, particularly speech perception, speech production, vocal emotions, and human communication. So she shed light on this amusing topic!
Well they can f**k off with that because it makes me feel about 10 times worse when that happens lol

Load More Replies...I've heard people talk about the Depp Vs Heard trial. I could join in, but I didn't watch the Court case, and I've seen only snippets from the media. So I have no authority to say to what extent either party is guilty.
I don't know about that, seems wrong... but as someone who isn't a subject matter expert on how to express myself in a way human people enjoy..... I guess I don't know enough about it to have an opinion.
I need this on a tee-shirt. So i can wear it to work. To show my favourite mansplainer 🤯🤪😡
I use this a lot when I don’t want to argue with an argumentative person. And it shuts them down pretty quickly
Well, I happen to be an expert in this particular area. So even though most times, Yes, I could claim that, just not this time..
Turns out, the first requirement for something to be received as funny is that people need to understand that joke, pun, saying, or meme. But how do we do that? Well, Scott argues that it comes down to the intended meaning that makes a particular thing funny.
“One simple thing about not getting a joke is not realizing that it's a joke at all, assuming that someone is being serious and saying something stupid,” the professor explained.
After 3 years infection free, I just tested positive for Covid, so this is so true. Fortunately I'm fully vaccinated and am off to get my Paxolovid treatment.

Load More Replies...Is it bad that I enjoy sitting back and watching these delusional people try to defy physics?
There’s a one in a quadrillionth of a chance that, if you poke your hand through a brick wall, the molecules would perfectly fit, thus, your hand would travel through the wall. So, that mattress had a chance, but today wasn't that day.
I used to work in the large items pickup area at a thrift store. We got amazingly good at 3D Tetris, but mattresses and box springs were a different story. We could usually tell within the first 5 seconds that they would have to come back with a bigger vehicle - that didn't stop them from trying though!
For clarification: although it was a thrift store, we also sold new mattresses and frames, etc... We did not accept donated mattresses for obvious reasons.
Load More Replies...I fit a futon in my old Volvo's trunk and back seat. I bought the futon forgetting which vehicle I was driving. The box was enormous so the guy at the store and I took it out of the box to discover it was in 2 pretty large pieces. We opened the trunk, laid the back seats down and went to shoving pieces for all we were worth. Took about 20 minutes but I got it home, out, assembled, and no marks on it anywhere. Getting it out though is a whole different story!😁
Reminds me of the guy making a political speech in front of his town and a heckler yelled, “Tell them all you know, it won't take long.” Without any hesitation, the speaker replied, I'll do you one better. I'll tell them all I know and all that you know and it won't take any longer!"
Moreover, it’s not as easy as it looks. Hence, so many badly received jokes that land the joker eyerolls, or cringe at most. “It often has to do with as much the person telling the joke or where the joke is coming from, as the content of a joke,” Scott explained, adding that in order for the joke to be received as such, the audience needs to be aware of the fact that it is a joke.
Imagine if we could have a kitty, Keanu, and banana for scale in the same picture.
Load More Replies...Of course I would take picture of the cat. There are millions of pictures of ruins took by professionals and if I want to show someone how it looks, well, those pictures are better. But I can get a good picture of cat.
We were on a cruise and visited a synagogue in Riga, Latvia. There was a kitty dozing on the side wooden windowsill under an open window. Yes, I took multiple pictures of the synagogue kitty
There were kittens outside of the Pompeii ruins. I'm not saying they were a highlight but...
Cats win at everything. Is there anything better to look at then an adorable kitty?

Do you remember downloading a large file and hitting 99%? The relief when it reached 100% was palpable.
Or your sister picked up the extension phone in the kitchen and started dialing her best friend's number. That frustration was palpable too.
Load More Replies...Yeah, why is it I can now download a game/video/file/whatever in 10 minutes that would have taken me days (weeks?!) 25 years ago, but websites still take the same amount of time to load?!
I remember deciding to upgrade to Windows 95 even though I loved 3.1 a year later than my friends and got a major upgrade first. Crowd of us stood round, popped in the disc then went to get a cup of tea. Came back in - sad to see nothing happening. Took ages to realise it had finished.
Load More Replies...Somewhat unrelated BUT does anybody else relate to patiently waiting for a website to load, finally rage quitting it, and then seeing the website FINALLY load just as you hit the "quit" button? PAIN, my friend. PAIN.
Yes. I was in 1st grade and I wasn't feeling. My teacher sent me to the administration office so I could call my mom. The lady at the desk put her rotary phone in my reach and I just stared at it. Finally asked her how to use it. She showed me, and when my mom got to the school to pick me up, I asked her why we didn't have a cool "spinny" phone.
Load More Replies...When I was a kid and we got our first home dial-up connection, I would take a book with me into the study so I could read while I waited for each page to load. I got through half my Terry Pratchett collection that way.
I rage quit when I'm booted out of my accounts and have to log back in.
I've actually seen mountain goats climbing up the side of a mountain face just like this. It was amazing to watch them jump from spot to spot and never fall once.
There's a ferry port in Dieppe and across the road are cliffs. My parents live in France and last month I went to visit them for my 40th birthday. They picked me up from the port and there were about six goats just hanging out, balancing on what was essentially a vertical cliff. To have been able to see that in person was bananas :-D
Many people mistakenly think mountain goats are sure footed. The dirty secret is some breeds are born with fridge magnets inside them.
That's probably an Argan fruit tree in Morocco. The farmers collect the seeds to make Argan oil but don't need the flesh of the fruit. The goats are happy to help.
Load More Replies...What makes things funny shouldn’t be rocket science but there are multiple complex theories about it. One of them is “the idea that sometimes you laugh because it makes you feel better about yourself, you feel superior to tell the joke.”
Another theory argues that “you laugh because there’s some sort of complexity set up and then it’s resolved and that’s part of getting the joke.”
Providing pic is necessary for credit of excuse.
Load More Replies...As a teacher, I accept this reason under the condition there is photographic evidence and the duckling is available to come to class.

And BoredPanda has censored what I wrote as well! He has written loads of books for children!
Load More Replies...I did this too, it was to keep my medication colder for longer, so I froze more than 100ml in the bottom of a flask. They were discussing with me that it could melt, but I said then my medication won’t be cold any more so that doesn’t benefit me? Eventually they tested everything, read my hospital letter and let me through. Thankfully now I have upgrade my syringe-carrying equipment to a medical flask. So I expect the above story ended with security taking the bottle!
If you let your airline know ahead of time what you're taking you're less likely to have issues. Medication is allowed to be carried if properly tested.
Load More Replies...Not necessarily. Carbon dioxide, for example, goes right from solid to liquid. You have to increase the pressure a lot to get liquid.
Load More Replies...curious if beside the technicality, if this proves the liquid is not an explosive? do other liquid explosives freeze, or does their chemical composition prevent that? serious question
It's a nonsense regulation. I'm allowed to carry 4 X 3 Oz (100 mL) bottles into the plane without question about their contents. 4 small bottles of exclusive is just as bad as one big bottle.
Load More Replies...Scott also argues that the reason we laugh often has to do with “some kind of taboo” which is perceived as acceptable when mentioned in the joke context. On other occasions, “we laugh because laughter is a behavior associated in humans and other mammals with play,” Scott explained.
At the same time, the most important role for saying (writing) and receiving jokes is a pretty straightforward one–“just to be playful and you’re kind of acknowledging that and what has been done for you in the name of the play.”
We should stop breeding cats with defects. Even though indeed they look darn cute 😔
Really? I don't think the cat on the right looks cute. It looks like someone cut off its legs! Poor little thing.

"We were wolves once, wild and fierce. Then we noticed you had couches."
The domestication of cats: cat: Human, you are mine now. You need me. Human: sounds good to me.
So the wolf doesn't kill you, it mutates (into a dachshund or corgi) and takes over your life.
Mine also got a heating pad in the deal!! She swears she doesn't know any wolves but for another treat, she might just be able to...
Why on earth would a fox sleeping in a graveyard make you wonder about reincarnation? The outside is kinda the foxs domain.
Aa someone who believes in reincarnation: exactly!
Load More Replies...He is not sleeping. He has moved the gravestone, so it is directly over the coffin and is holding it in place to stop the zombie from escaping
There is something about a free hanging animal foot that is so grabbable. My pets can attest to how hard it is for me to resist the urge, although I do refrain when they're sleeping, as hard as it is. 😅
It’s important to note that according to Scott, jokes have less to do with our absolute personalities (so don’t jump to conclusions about a person if they find or don’t find your joke funny!) and more with who we are and our life experiences. Scott argues that the things we find funny may also be directly influenced by the relationship with the person who’s telling the joke.
I rescue snails and think this too. What story do they tell other snails, of being airborne and travelling at the speed of walk. (Not warp speed) Must be quite a trip.
The ones served in French restaurants have no stories to tell.
Load More Replies...Back around 1983, when vacationing in Puerto Rico, my husband and I decided to hike up the mountain in El Yunque. At the base of the trail I saw a large snail sitting on a tree. I picked him up and after a few moments he relaxed and started to look around. So, I took him along. I have a whole photo album documenting his adventure. He sat patiently on a rock enjoying the view while we swam in the waterfall. He got to walk on some trees he’d never seen before. He even came into the restaurant that was midway with us and sat on a rail by our table where he got to look down on the jungle, below. Unfortunately, it had begun to snow at this altitude and, after a few pics of him in the flakes, I stuck him inside my shirt to stay warm. When we got back to the trailhead, I thanked him for his company and put him back in the same spot I’d found him in. We joked that none of the other snails were ever going to believe him.One of my best trip memories.
In case you are wondering, this is real. He got rescued and transported, saved, rescued and transported, saved, dyed (bears shed, people!), and again misidentified and “rescued”. That time they took him to a Polar Bear house at a zoo. https://inf.news/en/animal/25c4c6ca336e32b18709a723b502c978.html
Makes me wonder if they ever thought of giving him a tracker or a identifying tattoo...
Load More Replies...There are actually bears that are white that are not albino or polar bears, they are called spirit bears
"Spirit bears" (white brown-bears) are a thing, but that's a polar bear.

Load More Replies...:00 thats so smart to think that, we must be on the top of the food chain
Load More Replies...Around here, mosquitoes are at the top of the food chain. I've come to realise that that's because mosquitoes are more intelligent than humans. Put a naked mosquito and a naked human in a darkened room and see who gets bitten first.
Also they are the most dangerous animal alive as measured by actual numbers killed.
Load More Replies...Yesterday I was looking for my can of Coke while carefully holding it out of the way so I wouldn't knock it over in my search.
Now that is lovely. Thank you for sharing. Btw, yesterday I realized that 'Peppermint Patty' is a play on 'Peppermint Pattie'. And at some point in my adulthood I realized in a blinding flash of insight that 'Kanga' and 'Roo' (from Winnie the Pooh to all you troglodytes) combine rather neatly to produce 'Kangaroo'. This despite them being known to me since childhood and being very obviously... kangaroos.
Load More Replies...14-year-old son stands in from of the full fridge proclaiming: there is NOTHING to eat.
No, kid, there's nothing quick and easy to eat. Nothing that doesn't require more than 10 minutes of effort to prepare and serve. This is an argument my mom and I still occasionally have and I have lived on my own for 16 years. I lived at home until I was 24, I was a late bloomer in some ways. I'm 40 now, and still think this to myself when I do actually have food, I just don't want to cook it. Besides, food often tastes better (depending on the way it is cooked) when Mom cooks it! I think it's the "secret" ingredient of love 😊
Load More Replies...It's even better than that...We have removed ourselves from the food chain...There is nothing that routinely hunts us for food...Whereas we eat EVERYTHING...And we don't even have to hunt. We domesticated our prey, so we can snack on it :)
As Hobbes the tiger once pointed out, don't be too sad - humans provide some very important protein.

We should all just stop believing that say, Nebraska, exists. *I* certainly have never met anyone from "Nebraska". I have never even met anyone who knows anyone from "Nebraska". Its all just a big Gov't conspiracy. They created this "Nebraska" so they could have a "state" they could "transfer money to" which they actually use to fund all their secret projects. To make it convincing they even erected "welcome to Nebraska" signs on the highways and have actors pretending to live there when we all know it is really Wyoming or Colorado etc. Yeah, "Nebraska". They couldn't even come up with a convincing name for their fake slush fund "state". Just watch, "Nebraskans" will be on here claiming it really exists. Just how dumb do they think we all are?
I agree. This is true. It's government conspiracy. Nebraska is a cover up plot, to fund another conspiracy - the Nevada, which doesn't exist either.

Load More Replies...You sold our Dragon themed amusement park to open a Crater Visitor center, and it doesn't even have a crater. What, did you think a Crater was going to just fall out of the sky?
*as a crater falls from the sky* and they hear faintly in the distance "curse you Petty the Platypus!"
Load More Replies...No, the crater was made after the visitors center was put up and it just missed it luckily.
Load More Replies...I've been there. It's incredible how far down the impact actually is. This photo doesn't do the crater justice.
And that, dear reader, is why most people should not be allowed to make decisions that affect others.
If he had agreed, though, he would be proving Cathrine wrong. So now I'm confused
In this anecdote he wouldn't have. It would spoil the point.

Load More Replies...The Apollo mission also was not aborted in flight when the computer was overloaded because of a failsafe Hamilton had written using fixed-priority pre-emptive scheduling - which seemed paranoid at the time, but was the foundation of what NASA afterwards called "super-reliable software". And no, the overload was not an error in her coding - it was a hardware glitch.
And all that fitted in just 32 kilobytes of storage. Amazing. Let's calculate it. 25 lines of code per page, Somewhere in excess of 4000 pages. 2 bytes per word. At least 5 words per line. All in all requires at least 1000 kB of storage. I hadn't known that Apollo spacecraft had a Tardis on board.
I suspect it's assembler code as well, so one line of code corresponds to one machine instruction - she must have had a very impressive handle on everything.
Assembler is for lightweights. Try compiling the instructions by hand. As they say, I have been there and done that! If she had an assembler, she likely had to write it first, in machine code!

Load More Replies...I actually met a guy once who wanted to go and live on the moon. I thought he was joking but nope, dead serious. He had an entire stall with information about how we should build a moon base so he could go live in it. I was probably subconsciously thinking of him about a decade later when I wrote a sci fi novel which mentions in passing that people in the future - mostly mega rich ones - went to live on the moon. And then moved back when they realised the moon was really f*****g boring.
Because once we discovered it’s not ACTUALLY made out of cheese we saw no point
Personally, I think it's time US conservatives considered moving to the moon.
I imagine them as Dan Reynolds, Ben McKee, Daniel Platzman, and Wayne Sermon.

This one statement sums up my semester in Computer Basic. Prof took pity on me and gave me a C so I wouldn't lose my financial aid. He said he'd never had a student try so hard and get no closer to understanding. Took it as a win, and moved on with my life.
12? Half the time my 4-5 person teams for group projects in school can't all do what they're supposed to on time.
School team projects are training for adulthood, with multidisciplinary teams, different time zones, different countries and different languages. The joys of regional positions.
Load More Replies...Hmmm. I use to believe this too. However in recent years as WW2 things have become declassified, loads and loads of stuff has come to light that huge amounts of normal everyday people have never talked about. Take Bletchly hall, men turned to wives after a life time of marriage to say they had worked there only to find their wives had too. Members of my family suddenly came out with new amazing stories no one had ever heard of. Clearly, a huge amount of people can keep a secret. I don't buy that major world events are faked though, or at least I am yet to see a convincing argument. I love a conspiracy theory though, but in the way I used to love watching X files.
I say this constantly! The most basic projects derail because someone was out sick or someone couldn't get the right paper on time or a c**p load of other reasons. Conspiracy theorists have an overly optimistic view of how folks work together!
Try having kids. Getting 2 of them to do what they’re supposed to do, on time, without blabbing, is impossible.
That's my response to the Q-Anons' conspiracy theories. Do they really think that many people can keep that big a secret for so long?
If your conspiracy theory requires a few people successfully keeping information that hundreds of people would have to know of (9-11 was an inside job; JFK was murdered by the CIA), you're an idiot and you've never dealt with management or information flow. If your conspiracy theory requires massive numbers of people who would benefit from doing something corrupt all doing that corrupt thing, congratulations, you're over the target. You can be sure someone on the internet will add some completely extraneous detail to your theory, and then loads of fact-checkers will condemn because that extraneous detail was easily disproven.
In uni, I got into a group with three young chinese women, and one young man, dumb as a brick, sent with them as their watchdog. They're in europe to study on PRC's dime, and are supposed to return. Them getting pregnant is a major concern among the authorities, as this would entitle them to unlimited stay or even citizenship. So ... they were pretty smart. He not so much. As I got a relatively easy task, and they weren't fluent in german, I offered to translate and corrected his entire page of nothing into something actually worth reading. And nobody got pregnant, although he took me aside and tried to threaten me, but I had to complete his every sentence because he was the least fluent in german, so we kinda laughed ourselves through the threatening. Felt kinda weird, the entire thing ... I didn't even have any adult plans whatsoever to begin with, neither any of them ... all well and good, and we drove a tractor and recorded a lot of stuff ... accelerations, vibrations, ... do they still do this, watchdog exchange students and stuff?
the reason nasa actually went to the moon was that it was easier and cheaper than faking it!

No f*ing way. Then I have to learn chemistry. Literally nothing on earth is worth that.
But if you have to learn chemistry, setting passwords like Nitrogen7|-3, Potassium19|+1 or Carbon6|+-4 (name of element, atom number, most common ion) sounds like great idea.

Load More Replies...I Google this and this image does come up as a kitten paw . I saw others where there's a lot more in the xray of an adult cat so I'm not sure if that makes a difference but ya, real or fake, super adorable
If this isn't one of the cutest xrays I didn't know I needed to see an xray for a kitty foot. Until I saw an x ray of a kitty foot 🥰

This disinterest can be changed to interest with a wad of cash in certain areas of one's country.
Load More Replies...After engaging in pre-mating rituals, the female indicates interest by giving the male a peach or eggplant. Then, the male proceeds. If not interested, the female says no or hires a ghost to tell him. But some aggressive males take NO as an encouragement.This leaves scientists baffled. “Why does No equal Yes for these males?”
Not true actually, I like all posts of people I'm friends with on social medias because I'm not good with words and I just want them to know that I'm not tired of them, it's just my way of checking up on homies tbh

I have one. Cantilevered. The two pair of vertical legs transmit the torque generated by the weight on the table down the the ground. The base is the same shape as the top, and slides under the lounge. As a result, the legs carry far more force, both in tension and compression, than that generated directly by the weight of the table and the objects on it. It's made of metal tubing with joints that are both welded and screwed. The welding is necessary to provide the structural rigidity necessary to stop the table from behaving like a diving springboard.

Yeah, and if you unintentionally bend it back into an acute angle, you're not getting the last of it out of any corner.

The best is when the password isn't the answer but one digit off so those who think they have it right get frustrated because it doesn't work.
It's been a while since I've done any of this stuff, but I think it's nonsense. First, the dx shouldn't be inside the square root, that's meaningless. Secondly, the first *how many* digits? That's awfully imprecise for something supposedly aimed at smart people. I think they just grabbed a random formula off google. Although *adjusts glasses* on closer examination, it's probably 0. IIRC you take the formula with x=2 and subtract the formula with x=-2 and in both cases that's sqrt(4 - 4) so it's just 0 and it doesn't even matter what the first part is. Of course... it *has* been a while since I've done this, so take that with a grain of salt.
Load More Replies...I'd first spend 10 minutes trying to figure out whether brute force is faster than solving it

I dont know about that. If the nose works like a lie detector, as long as the person saying the statement doesn't know it's a false statement, it would register as true or non-conclusive.
Lie detector is a misnomer. It's more a fear detector. Here's the trick. The "are you inside" "is it winter" etc aren't the control questions like they want you to think, that's actually part of the mind game. The real control questions are ones that everyone will have done but you convince yourself is small enough not to matter like "have you ever lied to anyone you care about" or "have you ever stolen from an employer, even something as small as a pen"
