T-Rex: T-Rex Presents The Periodic Table:
T-Rex: 3. LITHIUM.
T-Rex: A highly reactive light metal, the least dense solid element. Used in batteries for electronic devices.
T-Rex: I tried to think of a lithium joke, but I just got depressed.
Utahraptor: Boo!
T-Rex: Then I tried to think of a second lithium joke, but nothing crystallised.
Utahraptor: Not nerdy enough.
T-Rex: Then I tried to think of a third lithium joke, but it was a DIS-ASTER!
T-Rex: Wait, too nerdy?

The author writes:

I tried to think of a fourth lithium joke, but the resulting war between the quadra- and tetra- factions was at a nerdiness level way beyond where any man had gone before.
