This one's for folks who believe scientists are drab folks ... no sense of humour! I am reading about dark matter here. Well ... they have two categories of dark matter ... Machos and Wimps ... No no ... these are not mere words, they even dreamt up full forms of these, making these acronyms ...
MACHO: Massive Astrophysical Compact Halo Objects
WIMP: Weakly Interacting Massive Particles
Almost as though someone thought up the words, and then made the expressions?
