Drawing board Puns

I call it the flip charts.

Basics.

Oh well, back to the drawing board.

Dad: "You know it's illegal in Louisiana to take pictures of people with a wooden leg."

Me: "Really? I wonder why."

Dad: "It'd be stupid to try to take pictures with a wooden leg. Most people use cameras."

It took me longer than I care to admit to figure that one out. He wouldn't stop laughing about it for an hour.

We were going over some new concepts in Physics today and my professor was making sure we all understood. So after drawing a few figures on the board, he draws a baseball diamond, stands in front of it, and says, "I just want to make sure I'm covering all the bases."

Groans were had.

My professor had taught us about these doohickeys called multiplexers, which we sometimes also call "data selectors," in a previous lecture.

At the next lecture we had a review: he would draw a symbol and we would shout out what it represented, and he was hamming it up, acting like a game show host.

He drew a multiplexer on the board and asked the class, "what's this?" "A multiplexer!" some students called out. "Right! Now," says the prof, "what is another word for 'multiplexer'?" "A data selector!" someone answers correctly. But he looks like the student just blew the million-dollar question. "Hmm... 'a data selector'... no, I'm afraid not—that's three words!"

His two young kids have probably learned not to ask him about what he teaches.
