I didn’t see a thread so I’m posting this one.
Story here and here and probably lots of other places.
//checks calendar…nope, not March 31st.
I love this. 
I’m a science fan, as in it amazes and amuses me, though I haven’t the kind of thinking to indulge in it seriously. So neat, though!
So…if they announce the ‘God Particle’ tomorrow, and I also get my early-start to SW:TOR on the same day…do I have to give up my atheism? :p:p
So a Higgs boson particle goes into a catholic church. The moment the priest sees him he orders him out saying, “Get out you so called god particle!”
The Higgs boson particle stopped, stunned at what he’d heard. “But wait,” he cried, “You can’t have mass without me.”
As I was typing it came to me that I’d probably read that joke here. But it’s still funny.
Awesome! 
The wary reader will note that currently the Higgs Boson neither exists nor un-exists.
By listening to the upcoming announcement, you will force the boson into a state of definite existence (or non-existence, as the case may be).
Ur…, oki doki.
The Higgs Boson is why you’re fat.
Meh. I’ll get excited when they find the Higgs Boson’s Mate.
Not just fat, massive.
Amusingly, I know someone called Higgs who has considerable mass.
In typical quantum fashion, they sort of confirmed it.
Higgs Boson could’ve been nicknamed “Goddamn Particle” instead of “God Particle”.
But if they find out the mass of the H-B, won’t that compress the Earth down to a super-dense particle the size of a pea? 
It’s a small world after all.
