It took me way to long to realize they are always called Alice, bob, Charlie, Daniel... so I can strip them of their humanity and just call them A,B,C,D...
If you just have A and B, you can also refer to them as "she" and "he" in your explanation
John Conway also remarked once that it's nice how the woman comes first
Alice and Bob were dancing on a spider web
Because the web was holding them, they called Charlie
Alice, Bob and Charlie were dancing on a spider web
Because the web was holding they called Daniel
Alice, Bob, Charlie and Daniel
There are games where you can prove that Alice wins without finding the strategy. If Bob has a strategy, Alice can steal it. In other words, Alice can play against two Bobs and beat at least one of them

And Eve is the eavesdropper….
I graduated and I'm hearing about this *NOW??*
*how* did you graduate?
That's entirely on you.
Oh, it’s not that simple, E is Eva for an evaesdropper, M is Mallory for a malicious user, and so on.
Took me 36 years, I am 36

As xkcd states, having Alice and Bob in it can be a trap to force IT-People to listen to any boring story

Wait, no Eve? No Mallory?
I like it, but Eve and Mallory has never been included in any lecture I’ve heard.
Then who has been an eavesdropper and a malicious attacker?
Cryptography:)
Quantum Mechanics:)
Analytic Philosophy:)
Soccer :)
Counter Strike:)
Relativity:)
Anything math related

There is that sneaky man in the middle named Charlie
Wait until you get to Jody.
oh i thought that was mallory
IIRC Mallory is generic Malicious. Charlie is a MF anyway.
It's all fun and games until Mallory joins in
I only know that when the metadata of their conversation is encoded in a way that is vulnerable to sidechannel attacks.
as a programmer by trade but with a physicist background I thought I was in r/physicsmemes and thought the topic was relativity
Same for a sec. Although I've seen it used in word problems in many fields
my exact thought…
Eve overheard and knows too
Modern Romeo and Juliet trying to keep their connection a secret. Very secret.

Now that's when you know you're screwed
Eve doesn’t know, but she would love to find out
Alice and Bob that's cryptography
the third party
Ana Beto Carla/Carlos over here
Ana, Benito, Carla, Daniel, Erica...
You forgot to mention Eve
I don't know the topic, their message was encrypted.
And if it's about Alice and John its suddenly about jazz
I usually go for fruit and veg (apple, banana, carrot, durian, eggplant, etc.). It gets rough on longer lists.
quantum mechanics of course!
Well, I do.
The subject is “Carol and Ted”.
Does anyone *really* want to hear Ted talk? /s
Time dilation?
and Eve(sdropper)
What about Trudy
they're fucking
Quantum teleportation.
Backdoor penetration (testing) ?
CS people copy paste each other so hard it turns into inside jokes.
