Thomas Young's famous double-slit experiment to demonstrate how light behaves as a wave completely changed the way we think about how light works. But it particularly shook up the Dad Community at the time

who had always held the theory that many hands make light work.

Today is Neil Young's 70th birthday

This literally just happened.

Context: I'm 30yrs old. Got my own place. My dad and his business partner are staying with me for a meeting they have in the morning. Dad's friend is browsing the news on his laptop. He casually says Neil Young's birthday is today. He's 70 years old.

My dad goes "I guess he's Neil Old now"

Is it a sign of getting old when I find his dad jokes hilarious?

When I was young, I decided to go to a medical school. At the entrance exam, we were asked to re-arrange letters 'PNEIS'. And form the name of an important human body part which is most useful when erect.

Those who answered 'SPINE' are doctors today while the rest are here posting jokes on reddit.

A young dolphin

A young dolphin, having just watched two blue whales humping, was thinking about the facts of life and how the whales got together in the first place.

He turned to his mum and said β€œMum, how did you and dad meet ?”

β€œSon” she said β€œWe were following a fishing boat scavenging dead fish and your dad and I collided as we went for the same dead tuna fish.

He backed off and let me have the tuna, it was very gallant of him”

β€œWhat happened next Mum”

β€œWe just clicked son”

A young man walks into a bar. He looks at the bartender and says "I'll bet you a beer I can absolutely blow your mind…..”

The bartender, after having owned the bar for 20+ years, tells the customer, "I've seen some crazy things go on in this bar and in this town. I don't think you can do it. You're on."

The customer reaches in his pocket, and pulls out a man who stands 10" tall. He tells the bartender, "watch this." Then tells the little man, "how about beethoven's 5th?"

The small man goes to the piano, climbs onto the stool, and plays beethoven's 5th symphony flawlessly.

With his mind properly blown, the bartender slides his customer a beer.

An hour later, the same customer challenges the tender to the same bet, who again, obliges.

The customer pulls a genie lamp from another pocket and tells the owner, "this genie has no limits. Make a wish."

In disbelief, he says, "alright, I wish I had a million bucks."

The bar immediately fills with white-feathered birds.

"I WISHED FOR BUCKS, NOT DUCKS!!"

The customer replied, "when was the last time you wished you had a 10 inch pianist in your pants?
