這個笑話是在11分23秒左右,以下是臺詞:
This physicist goes into an ice cream parlor every week and orders an ice sundae for himself,
有個物理學家每周都去冰激淩店點壹個聖代給自己吃
and then offers one to the empty stool sitting next to him
然後再點壹個聖代放在旁邊的空座位上
This goes on for a while
好久以來,他壹直這樣做
until the owner finally asks him what he's doing
有壹天店主終於問他為什麽這樣
The man says, "well I'm a physicist, and quantum mechanics teaches us that it is possible for the matter above this stool to spontaneously turn into a beautiful woman, who might accept my offer and fall in love with me"
他說,“我是物理學家,而量子物理理論告訴我們,有壹定的幾率這張椅子會自動變成壹位美麗的女人,而這女人會有可能接受我的邀請並且愛上我”
The owner then says, "Well, lots of single, beautiful women come in here everyday, why don't you buy an ice cream for one of them, and they might fall in love with you"
店主說,“這裏每天都有很多漂亮且單身的MM,為什麽妳不買份聖代給她們呢?她們可能會愛上妳啊”
And the physicist says, "yeah, but what are the odds of that happening?"
那物理學家說,“算了,這種事情發生的幾率又是多大呢?”
我是文科的,但我猜這裏提到的量子物理學是比如說物體是由量子構成,而量子是隨機變化的。所以就理論來說,既然量子是隨機變化,那在壹定幾率下,壹堆量子會組合出壹個漂亮的女人。但是可以想到,這樣的幾率是微乎其微接近於零的,類似於幾兆億分之壹的。
而這個笑話的笑點是當店主推薦他買冰激淩給店裏實際存在的女人的時候,物理學家拒絕了,因為他覺得這些女人愛上他的幾率太小。相比之下,他反而覺得旁邊的座位變成壹個愛上他的MM的幾率會高壹些。
