The Noble Gas Jokes Are Argon

The noble gas Argon doesn't react with anything - it's completely inert due to its full electron shell. So when Spock delivers that punchline, he's making a brilliant chemistry pun: the good chemistry jokes "argon" (are gone) because they don't react! The deadpan delivery makes it even better - only a Vulcan could deliver such a logical yet hilarious element joke with zero emotional reaction. The perfect intersection of periodic table humor and sci-fi references that would make even Mendeleev crack a smile.
