Who here has good Schrödinger’s Cat jokes (or related jokes that come to mind)? I’ll list a couple. Schrödinger, Heisenberg, and Ohm are all in a car. A police officer pulls them over and says, “Do you know how fast you were going!?” Heisenberg answers, “No, but I know exactly where I am!” The officer replies, “You were going 35 in a 55.” Heisenberg throws up his hands. “Thanks a lot, now I’m lost!” The cop finds this suspicious and searches the car. “Do you know that you have a dead cat in your trunk?” The cop asks. “Well, now I do!” Schrödinger angrily replies. The cop finds all of the events very suspicious. He arrests them. Ohm resists. A woman walks into a library and asks the librarian, “I’m looking for a book, but I don’t remember the title or author. Can you help me find it?” The librarian agrees, and the woman says, “Well, it’s an adventure book about Schrödinger’s Cat and Pavlov’s Dog.” The librarian thinks a moment, before replying, “It rings a bell, but I’m not sure if we have it or not.” ---

A strange thing- Schrödinger came up with his cat paradox to ridicule the absurdity of applying quantum physics to everyday objects. ---

Every now and then, I will see an advertisement for a t-shirt company. Among their shirts is one with a picture of a cat standing in front of a blackboard covered with equations, and the caption “Schrodinger’s Cat–the escape plan!” ---
