The hard thing is finding an infant in a wheelchair to go with you

- Just find a regular infant and break its legs 🤷🏻‍♂️

  I'm still missing a wheelchair. And now I really need to go.

  That’ll teach the little fucker for not handing over the candy.

  Last time I checked, infants can't walk anyway

Iron Man: Am I a joke to you?

Transition metals don't exist, everyone knows there are only 2 elements

- Come on bud, be a proper alloy!

- Found the cosmologist.

  Is that joke that on a cosmic level, it's mostly hydrogen and helium (?) so others get ignored, like how genders other than the usual 2 get ignored? If so, that's so smart and funny, wow.
  
  Or is it something else that I'm not getting?

- No, there are more elements. But there are only two elements there is an infinite supply of in the universe, Hydrogen and Stupidity, and we're not sure about Hydrogen. /forgot whose joke this was

  The internet says it is an Einstein quote.
  
  Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
  
  I am betting like most quotes attributed to him that it is made up though.

- They can use whichever one they want.

  The real challenge: use both at once!

And they both have cute little wheelchair persons as pets!

- "Honey, do you think we should get a little wheelchair person?"

Obligatory trans meme. 😋

Sup, mang?

14
- Yo I heard there was some really hot "manganese" down at the lab, wanna go check it out

Iron? Manganese? I don't care what transition metal you are, at the end of the day you just want to fulfill your desire for d...

I'm sure there's a better version of the joke out there, but being funny isn't my strength

I was curious if there was a bimetal junction transistor (BJT) joke to make here, and turned up an interesting paper talking about a FeMn-bimetal complex effectively absorbing microwave radiation.

Best I think we can do here is "trans-sister."

Female and man?

12
- Yeah. Whoever decided on these is an idiot or deliberately calling women "females". Just on a standardization issue one is sex and one is gender.

  Or they’re just having fun…

- Feman and man

Ok, what I love, is that the "symbol" for iron (circle with NE arrow), is used as the symbol for "male", so it's switched here.

AND THEN, that same symbol is used by automaker Volvo... Which is awfully close to "vulva"... Which references back to female!

Mind blown *

Don't forget about Nb people too! (niobium)

- penis urinal

Are they also only for children in wheelchairs?

7
- no, no, no ... you have to disable your child first ... then you can use the restroom

Also what's with the circle around women vs. the triangle around men? Is this some meaningful gender related symbolism that I'm unaware of?

6
- On the left, you can see the shape of a female breast, on the right, the shape of a male penis.
  
  13
- It looks more like "hey, a cool design"
  
  3
- If I had to match curves vs angles to women vs men I would probably do it like that

Huh, this is the exact design of some of the bathrooms at SFU. I wonder if it's fairly common?
