Accidental innuendoFreddy Woo writes, "A woman I used to work with once walked into a car workshop to get her windscreen replaced, and uttered the immortal line, "Have you seen the size of my crack?"
What innuendos have you accidentally walked into? Are you a 1970s Carry On film character?

Scientists are mature, thoughtful people, right? (pt.1)...no, they're really not.
I'm currently working with a post-doc who isn't technically my supervisor - more of a mentor - on upgrading the instrument which I'll be using.
A few weeks ago, this involved replacing the thermistors - small temperature probes, which had to be inserted into the appropriate holes in the black-bodies, with the aid of a substance known as Electrolube.
The spectacle of a first-year PhD student and a 30-something post-doc bursting into fits of childish laughter provide a strong correlation in favour of us never growing up.

I've never thoughtof Electrolube as funny before.
Now I'm going to chuckle whenever I see it lying around the lab!
