Terrible joke alert. But I made it up myself so I get to be inordinately proud of it. :D

My illustrious flatmate, a student of chemistry, pursuing her masters degree, walks up to the professor, to take her viva exam.
"This thing you are wearing.." he starts
She scans herself from head to toe. "Which one sir?"
"Lab coat"
"Oh"
"What would happen if acid fell on it?"
"A hole, sir" prompt reply.
"CHEMISTRY" he thunders.
She blinks.
"What would happen in the language of chemistry?"
"Oh.......Don't know."
"What is the formula for cotton?"
"Don't know."
"For silk?"
"Don't know."
"Where does silk come from?"
"Silk worm." prompt reply
"CHEMISTRY!"
"Oh.......Don't know."
He gives up.

I'm walking down the science faculty roads with sir today. Half the road is dug up.
Sir says," DO you know why it's all dug up?"
"No sir. Especially considering that it was dug up just a few months ago...."
"Yeah. See, then they had dug it for the CWGames. They just put a covering of gravel to finish it in time. Now they are putting in the drain!!!!!!!!!!!!"

cosmic rays and toilet paper

Two and a half years of undergrad devoted to studying physics. Today it all paid off. The awfully long lab hours, the occasionally exciting theory classes.
Today I was allowed to work with a cloud chamber. Sitting there, actually seeing evidence of all the stuff about the insides of an atom we have been studying about since we were thirteen, it was amazing.
Little streaks of light. Pretty shapes. And three amazing lab partners. Nerd-life is good.
The hero of the afternoon was a very unlikely one though. When we were starting we wondered how to clean out the inside of the chamber. I suddenly remember something. I open my bag and pull out a roll of toilet paper.
"Oh. Really?" went Sonali.
"No. I just bought it on the way to college."
"Oh." (giggle)
That roll helped clean the chamber, wipe the spilt alcohol, dry the chamber at the end.
Explaining to my roommate how I finished half a roll in one day....."Oh, just tell her that four of us used it." (Pause to realize what she just said. Laughter.)

Also, is Qatar big enough to host a FIFA world cup?
