My favorite response to that joke…
Two chemists went to dinner together
After they ordered, one of them told the waiter: “A cup of H2O, please.”Another chemist told the waiter: “H2O, too.”
The waiter brought them both water because he knew what the second chemist meant.

Two atoms were coming out of a bar.
Atom 1: Dang, I think I left one of my electrons inside.
Atom 2: Are you sure?
Atom 1: Yep, I’m positive!

OK, I need to counter with a really, really bad math joke (which has a less than 10% chance someone gets it 
):
A function was flying through space when it chanced upon an operator.
O: how about I take your first derivative?
F: I don’t care… I am e^x
O: too bad, buddy… I am d/dy
…slinking out hoping no beer cans will hit me on the way out…

The abject puzzlement I feel would drastically throw off my aim.

I barely remember enough calculus to understand a joke about e^x being constant with respect to d/dy, but I think I’m there.

nah it’s itself with d/dx.
So I half get it, just not why it’s funny

The joke is that it’s 0 with respect to d/dy.
I think. It still doesn’t seem very funny, so maybe we should get the beer cans ready.

See, this is why I majored in chem and not math.

Thanks for playing everyone… I never said it was good, and it’s really only funny for math nerds 
I might have gotten hit by a few cans there…

Math and physics…whereas engineering grads would probably cry after all that torture by calculus

I started out a physics major, lasted one semester, scored 18% on the final and due to the curve, got a B. Took a long hard look at that and switched majors.

Yeah, I can see that. You survive only if you love calculus and/or pain

In engineering terms: picture a curriculum composed of only Statics and Dynamics, again and again, forever.
Maybe it’s obvious (or otherwise only related to experience/the curricula in my country), but physics and engineering studies involve a lot of mathematics, especially calculus, in the early semesters. However, the culling process, usually hard, is quite different. Most engineering students struggle a lot to pass calculus exams. Physics, you just die of labs and lab reports

Yeah this class was clearly a weed out speedbump. Worked with me
I loved Chemistry so it’s all good.
