If you follow me on Twitter (@DataGeekB) you know that I post a geek joke almost every Friday afternoon. Here are a few of my favorite demographer jokes, sociology jokes, and economist jokes (in no particular order):
DEMOGRAPHER JOKES:
Q: Why are demographers exhausted?
A: They're broken down by age and sex.
If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age.
Birthdays are good for you – the more you have, the longer you live.
Demographers are people who wanted to be accountants but lacked the personality for the job.
Old demographers never die. They just get broken down by age and sex.
A demographer is just a mathematician broken down by age and sex.
Statistics prove that number of offspring is an inherited trait. If your parent didn't have any kids, odds are you won't either.
Demographer pickup line fail: I asked a demographer for her phone number. She gave me an estimate.
Demographers are people who wanted to be accountants but lacked the personality for the job.
SOCIOLOGY JOKES:
A musicologist says to her sociologist friend, “Our studies really aren't that different.”
“How so?” asks the sociologist.
Musicologist: “We both study cymbalic interaction.”
Q: How do sociologists know what to drink at Cheers?
A: They follow Norm.
ECONOMICS JOKES:
Q: How many economists does it take to change a light bulb?
A: None. If the light bulb needed changing the market would've done it.
The First Law of Economists: For every economist, there exists an equal and opposite economist.
If all economists were laid end-to-end they would reach... no conclusion.
2+2=__
Mathematician: "4."
Statistician: "3.9 +/-.5 with a 95% confidence interval"
Economist: (closes door) "What do you want it to equal?"
