- My mom (picking up a business card from the store Quark Soup): What does this word mean? Quark?
- Me (terribly excited): A quark is a fundamental constituent of matter!!
- My mom: Oh, my german friend told me an ingredient in cheesecake and that's what I thought--
- Me: Well, it's not, in fact A QUARK IS A FUNDAMENTAL CONSTITUENT OF MATTER OBSERVED IN 1968 THROUGH DEEP ELASTIC SCATTER!
- My mom: Oh. Well, thanks?
