For those of you who teach or give talks: statistics jokes compendium. If you know of others not in this list, add them in the comments - I don't need to get research done!

I didn't see this one in there:

An engineer, a physicist, and a statistician are all staying in the same hotel room for a conference when a fire starts. The physicist immediately says "If we just evacuate all the air from the room we can put the fire out!" The engineer responds "No we just need to fill the ice bucket up with water, and use that to put out the fire!". The statistician then runs out of the room and starts setting fires in other hotel rooms. The engineer and physicist yell "What are you doing?" To which the statistician replies "If we are going to make an inference on the best course of action we will need a bigger sample size."

Those are absolutely terrible.

Why are probability and statistics not kid-friendly subjects?

Because they're all about pips and H₀'s!

I'd say this isn't a good idea. The more famous they are, the more they get told, yet the less funny they are on average.
