Just now noticed that Professor L. managed to get his favorite physics joke into the Quantum Mechanics textbook he co-wrote (albeit rather severely curtailed). On reflection, I'm kinda surprised that it took him until Chapter 5 to find a suitable opening.

He's a serious professor, but he does have his sense of humor. One of the students in our class is getting ready to take the Physics GRE exam, and he warned us that the people who put the questions together 'love to try to trick you. They're out to get revenge on the world because they, like all physicists, got picked on in high school.' Half-beat. 'And most of them think I was the one picking on them.' Half-beat. 'And most of them are right.'

college, physics, humor
