Happy 20th & Father's Day

In honor of The 20th falling on Father's Day, here's an Epicurean-flavored "dad joke"....

Why can't you trust an atom?

Because they make up everything.

Can't decide if this rises to the level of a "dad joke" or just as very clever pun on Lucretius's part, but just saw this online:

In De Rerum Natura, I.24, there's the line:

te sociam studeo scribendis versibus esse,

where Lucretius asks Venus to be a sociam in his writing of the poem.

A socius is a helper, an ally, etc.

What is the Greek translation of this Latin word?

επίκουρος!! (Epicurus!)

I refuse to think that's just a coincidence. Well played, Lucretius!
