This town is big enough for the two of us

Klear@lemmy.world on 10 Feb 10:00 collapse

May not be too big if two plutonium guys were to meet there though.

introvertcatto@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 10 Feb 10:26 collapse

Joke explanation:

Au is the symbol for gold. So without the A, the cat only wants U

Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works on 09 Feb 21:24 next collapse

I feel like there should be a hint about the periodic table or at least using the word element.

xorollo@leminal.space on 10 Feb 00:48 collapse

Goauld is an alien parasite in Stargate. That’s where my brain went.

spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works on 10 Feb 05:04 collapse

You’re not alone. Just like with the Goauld!

DonGirses@lemmy.world on 10 Feb 05:09 collapse

captainlezbian@lemmy.world on 10 Feb 04:56 next collapse

SeaUrchinHorizon@reddthat.com on 10 Feb 10:30 collapse

I agree! Wnt-1 truly is worth gold, we wouldn’t survive without this crucial developmental hormone :)))))))))))))

starshipHighwayman69@lemmy.ml on 09 Feb 22:36 next collapse

You should relabel it “Periodically, I want gold but the A is silent.”

GlockenGold@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 09 Feb 23:46 next collapse

Was trying to figure out what urum (Aurum/gold without the A) could mean, then I remember the abbreviation…

HollowNaught@lemmy.world on 09 Feb 23:54 next collapse

I thought the joke was that you just wanted gold lol

ruk_n_rul@monyet.cc on 10 Feb 13:50 next collapse

This is a tungsten joke

Vanshaj@lemmy.world on 10 Feb 14:16 collapse

I didn’t realise the joke until I read the community.
