(pseudo) intellectual jokes
It's not fair that pointy-headed smartypantses are always the butt of jokes. We should remedy that by making them the target audience for a change. Tell some jokes that eggheads will enjoy - maybe even some that only eggheads can "get". Let's tell some high-IQ funnies. A few quickies to get the ball rolling......

Two atoms walk into a bar:
"Dammit I think I left an electron behind in the last place".
"Are you sure?"
"I'm positive".

Grad student: "Professor - I have good news and bad news; which would you like first?"
Prof: "Oh the good news I think".
Grad student: "I discovered a new galaxy hidden by the rotation of the Milky Way - just two light years away".
Prof: "Why that's amazing! A Nobel prize for sure - the find of the century! What could possibly be bad news compared to that?"
Grad student: "It's blue".

Building site foreman: "Sorry I've had bad luck hiring intellectuals before - they always screw up"
Comp. Lit. PhD: "But I put myself through 8 yrs of school doing construction. Ask me anything! I need this job."
Foreman: "OK tell you what - if you can answer three easy trades questions right I'll hire you, OK?"
PhD: "Sure!"
Foreman "What's the difference between frame carpentry and finish carpentry?"
PhD: "Easy - frame carpentry is putting up the beams and supporting walls etc, - finish is doing splashboards and cabinets and such."
Foreman: "OK - where do you start laying roofing shingles?"
PhD: "Even easier - at the edge of the roof by the gutters so you can overlay the rows up to the roofline".
Foreman: "Alright - last one. What's the difference between girders and joists?"
PhD: "Easiest one yet - the former wrote Faust and the latter wrote Ulysses".
