“What do Sheldon Cooper and a black hole have in common?” Hawking asked the fictional Caltech physicist whose IQ comfortably outstrips his social skills.

After a pause, the answer came: “They both suck.”

Stephen's sense of humor has always cracked me up.

and was on not only The Simpsons, but Futurama as well!

John Oliver asked: "Is there a universe where I am smarter than you?"

Stephen Hawking replied: "Yes, and also one, where you are funny."

The Futurama one had me laughing for weeks every time I thought about it.

I, for one, will always remember him for his feature on the hit single "Satisfaction".

never noticed that was him.

he also did some recording for the pink floyd for the division bell album and that was later reused in their final album.

his voice is in talkin' hawkin' from endless river and keep talking from the division bell.

I could not find any source telling he had anything in common with this song.
