My capacity to resist such revolting humor is un-impeded.

In "Ghostbusters", there was a sign hanging on the wall in one scene which said, "Danger! 10,000 Ohms!"

Which you either find hilarous or deeply confusing. It's a pretty good way to separate the nerds from the normal folk. Me, I laughed my head off. My girl friend wondered why.

In my high school physics class, a group of us who thought it was hilarious to use alligator clips to hang voltage meters around our necks (in a manner similar to Flava Flav's clocks). We called ourselves "Ohm Boys."

What is the difference between an ohm and a coulomb?

I put up some resistance but it induced laughter until my capacity was exhausted.

I was planning to attempt the induction of humor into this thread but I sense some reluctance.

No, kcds, that's not reluctance you're feeling. It's resistance.
