I did something really silly last night...

I couldn't sleep, so I decided to get up and read the MCAT book a little more. Mind you, I have no prior knowledge on Biology, Chemistry... so this has been a slow going process.

I got to the section about Genetic Mutation, and the book said this,
"There are three kinds of mutations (hee hee):
1. Point mulations
2. Insertion muktations
3. Deletion muations"

I was so busy trying to learn the terminology and trying to figure out what "hee hee" stood for, an enzyme or some mnemonic device, I totally didn't get the joke until a few minutes later.

I am such a dunce 😉 (I was always slow at word play jokes, but who would have thought they would have it in an MCAT review book)

Oh yeah,

"A proton, an electron, and a neutron all walk into a bar. The neutron tries to attract the proton, but is shot down. A little while later, the proton and electron leave together, instantly attracted to each other.

The neutron, a little despondant, finishes his drink and asks the bartender how much the bill is. The bartender goes, 'For you, No Charge.'"

That one still gets to me. 😉 :laugh:

**EDIT**
So corny, it is funny.

😉 Yeah, I will share those stories at a later time. 😛

I must fail at something, but how is that funny? 😕

Situational comedy can sometimes be hard to grasp. But it is more the fact that I was completely unaware of the joke because I was too focused on learning the curriculum.

Thanks... hadn't heard that one before. I'll use it in physics class this year.
