Well this is a less scientific topic meant for physics geeks. I hope it's alright to be a little relaxed here in the science department every now and then at least...
Anyways so my question is this, what is your favorite quark (most particles are ok too, I just like the way quark sounds biggrin ) and why? Perhaps this is too weird a question and won't get any responces but me...
I'm a Strange Quark! I like my sexy 1/2 spin and my -1/3 electric charge. I have the middle ground for mass (like myself in real life...) with .17 GeV. I have a long life and can be called by two names (The strange quark is aka the lambda particle). And when people are in my presence they are specal, so specal that they are denoted with an S=-1!
I also like strange quarks because it was the first quark I ever learned about so it makes me happy to think about it! I grew up on physics and thinking about ceritan things makes me remember when I was leaning it and how cool I thought it was.
Anyways, so I'm weird and love quarks.... But I think they can tell you a lot about yourself! Or just reminince about physics. I want to get to know people in the guild. So if you don't want to be a quark when did you get into physics? What's your theory? What type of things do you like about it and not like? What really annoys you? Anything, I just want to talk to people about themselves through physics!

I'm a top quark because I'm short and fat. And mysterious, no one knows who I am, because I'm a ninja ninja
I think it's good to be relaxed in here. Physics is just waiting for jokes to be made about it, but unfortunately not many people understand the humor.

I'm up! I'm small and light, but I carry as much charge as a quark can hold in my little self.

I'm Strange. Yep, I'm definitely Strange.

Aww, when I saw the title of this thread I thought it was going to be some kind of quiz to find out which quark you are.
I can't decide what quark I am.

I feel I am a W boson. ~_~
I don't know which quark I am.

Top.
Elusive. Classy. Lots o potential energy. All that nice stuff.

Hazzar! Hail the power of the Geek! People actully replied, I love you all! I should make a quiz though MoUsY for this... on quizilla or something...
Anyways, I heard this fantastic physics joke and I want to share it!
rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl
So two physists are in a hot air balloon floating high above the earth. Clouds roll in suddenly and soon the two physists are lost in the clouds having no idea where they are. (They forgot their scientific calculators so they couldn't figure out where they were, fiction I know, a physist without a calculator?!) After for drifting for some time they came upon another hot air balloon drifting in the distance. One physist called out to it,
"Do you know where we are?"
After a moments pause the person in the other balloon responded,
"You're in a hot air balloon."
The one physist looked to the other and said, "That was a mathmatician."
The other responded, "How do you know?"
"Well, because his answer was 100% correct, and 100% useless!"

Yay physics jokes! You can also put that here if you have any good ones!
Oh, this is kind of like a PS but I'd like to know so if anyone has the answer fill me in. Where does the gold go when you donate it to the guild? I'd donate gold but I don't know what it goes to and I'd want to know that first 3nodding

It's actually more of a mathematician joke because the mathematician is the one being made fun of. And it's true, of me at least. I give "mathematician" answers all the time.

Hrmm...I have no clue what quark I would be... Anyways, for physics jokes you can always fall back on spherical cows.

Speaking of jokes,
three guys are stuck on an island, a physicist, a mathematician, and an engineer. They only have tinned food but no tin opener, so they decide to split up and look around the island for food. A while late the physics and engineer guys come back to find the maths guy happily eating from one of the tins. "How did you open it??" they asked in amazement His answer was "well, it was a difficult problem, so first I assumed the tins were open..." rofl

Thank you much! I'll update it as I see or hear other good quotes. If anyone in the guild wants a copy I'd be more than happy to give em one!

EdenOfDreams, I'd love to have that siggy, can you send it to me? I'll look for more witty physics sayings.
