Talk:2504: Fissile Raspberry Isotopes
This joke is like a visual pun, a raspberry fruit looks sorta like a nuclear model, and so it behaves the same (ie can go supercritical). 172.69.35.72 20:38, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- Along with an actual pun: pi in "pi meson" sounds like pie in "raspberry pie". Barmar (talk) 20:43, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- If it isn't also an intentional tertiary reference to the Raspberry Pi computer board, I'll eat my hat! 141.101.98.109 21:22, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
- I'd say you would have to eat it. Cannot see what this comic has to do with a computer board, just because it is named are a raspberry pie. This joke is obviously about the berries looking like nuclear cores, and pie mesons. Not about anything with a computer. So take some salt an eat (or swallow one the hats in your link, along with a camel :p ) --Kynde (talk) 10:21, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

Though raspberries resemble the common depiction of nuclei, perhaps we need to explain that in reality, nuclei are rather different..? BunsenH (talk) 03:41, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
