Summer Friday Fun Blog: Science Humor

Posted on by Michele Arduengo

It is the start of summer here in Wisconsin, so it’s time for some Friday Fun (#FridayFun) blog posts on Promega Connections. To kick us off, I have scraped the internet for a few good and groaner, G-rated science jokes.

So, here it goes, a few jokes to send you smiling (or shaking your head) into your weekend.

  1. I love a good science joke! Argon happens to be my favorite element, and your joke really tickled me! Argon slogans can also be really funny, I have a collection of them over at my site, that you should take a look at. Let me know what you think: Argon Slogans
