Scientific Discovery

Earlier today, scientists announced that they had discovered something advanced and extremely important. I asked the scientists to tell me about the discovery, but they didn’t.

It’s really not fair. I swore to the scientists that I wouldn’t say anything to anyone about the discovery (although I didn’t say I wouldn’t write about it), and I generously volunteered a secret of my own in exchange. The last I saw of the scientists, they were running away from me after whispering in my ear, “A scientist never discovers and tells.”

Perhaps the scientists’ true discovery is that they are immature jerks. If later on, the scientists reveal that I have a crush on them, which is obviously false, know that it is not their discovery.
