The Gravity Of No Electricity
Home | VA, USA | Parents & Guardians
(I’m about to leave home and study in Europe for a few weeks.)
Me: “I’m going to need an adapter so that I can charge my computer in Europe.”
Dad: “Those darn Europeans! Why can’t they just do everything the right way?”
Me: “Because they were there first?”
Dad: “We invented electricity!”
(I look confused.)
Dad: “Yeah. Thomas Edison.”
Me: “He invented the light bulb. Not electricity itself.”
Dad: “Oh, that was Ben Franklin, then?”
Me: “Yes, he invented it by happening to stand outside during a thunderstorm.”
Dad: “Yeah, just like Newton invented the apple!”
