Scientists find even more pointless particles

Scientists have today announced the probable existence of even more complicated particles, the concepts of which are even hard to grasp even for people as clever as them.

‘Einstein once said that, apart from him, only a handful of people really understood relativity,’ said Professor Steve Watts, Emeritus Chair in Look Why Bother It’s Really Too Complex Science at Cambridge University.

‘But these days with all the press articles about particle colliders and Stephen Hawking and Bill Bryson explaining things to everybody any bloke down the pub thinks he can explain the origins of the universe. We hope that by announcing these new potential particles we can put people back in the dark about dark matter.’
