I challenge you to come up with an even lamer physics pun

The other day, I was in the office kitchenette, and two of my colleagues both named Paul happened to be there getting coffee. I quipped, “Oh no, is this legal? I think it’s a violation of the Paul Exclusion Principle.” It was a horrible physics pun, perhaps one of the worst I’ve made in a long time. My challenge to you is to come up with an even worse one that you’ve told.

Note: You have to have actually made the pun to an appropriate audience. No fair just making one up for the purpose of the challenge.

Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
