Two hydrogen atoms walk into a bar.
One turns to the other and says, "I think I've lost my electron."
The other asks, "Are you sure?"
"Yes," the first says, "I'm positive!"

Listen here, you dense cabbage. An atom that loses an electron becomes positively charged. That's why the atom says he's "positive" after losing his electron. It's a play on word, see? Are you getting it now, or do I need to draw you a picture?
