Quit While You’re A-Dead
(I go to a dinner for honors students at my college. I end up sitting at a table with two of my professors from last semester. One of them, [Professor #1], is known for wild stories about his experiences.)
Professor #1: “Yeah, but we were young and reckless, and ended up losing two scientists.”
Professor #2: “Losing? You don’t mean…?”
Professor #1: “Well, one was trying to find more types of edible mushrooms, and he made a mistake.”
Professor #2: “A mistake?!”
Professor #1: “And another was looking at rocks in a cave when he fell onto a stalactite, or a stalagmite, I guess?”
(I honestly thought he meant they quit, not died!)
