NUCLEAR

Humor

There’s nothing funny about nuclear weapons, waste, or reactors, but that doesn’t mean we can’t find ways to laugh.  Satire, sarcasm, or just an instinctive response while riding a bomb into Armageddon - it’s human to find laughter or at least amusement in the worst of circumstances.  Here are a few of my favorites.

Tom Lehrer, “We’ll All Go Together When We Go”

Tom Lehrer - “So Long, Mom” (A Song for World War III) 

Mork and Mindy:  Mork from Ork on Nuclear Waste

Nuclear Weapons: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) - Jul 27, 2014

Dr. Strangelove - Major Kong rides the bomb to its inevitable conclusion
