2008 wants its meme back.

Probably bitter and followed by a slow agonizing death by liver failure.

Moon dust is functionally a lot like asbestos. It is composed of a sizeable amount of tiny shards of rock that aren’t great for your lungs.

Yeah dont do that.

The US is one of 3 countries on the planet that still stubbornly primarily uses imperial units. “The US doesn’t do it that way” isn’t a great argument for not adopting a standard.

Yes we know salt and water arent dangerous. We ask that you wear labcoats etc. in the lab despite not working with anything dangerous so that you form a habit of using protective lab garb regardless. Because a lot of accidents in the lab cause harm because someone thought it was safe to lower their gaurd and it wasn’t.

Case in point: one of my undergrad professors during his time at grad school walked around in the lab without his safety goggles on. He felt comfortable doing that because he wasn’t himself working on anything particularly dangerous at the time. He was just walking from one end of the lab to the other. Well it turns out that someone else was. There was a fairly good sized glass bottle with fuming nitric acid and other stuff for a reaction in it that was boiling away in the fume hood. No I dont know why the sash was as high as it was. There was a funnel sitting in the neck. Occasionally the jug would “bump” in other words, some liquid would spurt up top due to a slight build up in pressure caused by intermittant boiling. And one time while he was walking by, it burped a lot more violently than it normally would and some of it sprayed into his eyes while he was walking by. He spent the next two weeks in a dark room occasionally dropping antibiotic eye drops into his eyes so his corneas would heal. Apparently it was fairly painful and every blink felt like he rubbed sandpaper over his eyes. If it had been a strongly basic solution, it would have eaten his corneas and potentially blinded him permanently. Point is, we are trying to stop you guys from becoming too casual in the lab so you dont have your corneas half eaten by nitric acid because you felt safer than you actually were.

Getting the attention of your intended audience is part of communicating effectively. Buzzfeed has the reputation that they do because they embellish and distort the truth and outright lie for entertainment purposes. That is the problem not that they make use of memes to get their intended point across.

A lot of the language you use is a reference to other things. And language evolves precisely because enough people repeatedly used a word or phrase in a new way. It seems that your main criticism of the use of memes in literature is that they “dont feel right” or that you merely dont like where things are going which isn’t a solid rationale for disallowing them any more than people thinking the use of the word literal figuratively somehow makes the figurative use of the word literal “wrong.”

This was at a community college in the US. Instructors are supposed to be supervising them with lab coordinators supporting them. The lab that had the gas incident was downstairs and the student was left unattended or otherwise gained access to the lab after class. Hence the instructor’s supervisor had a chat with them about not doing that. The biology lab coordinator responsible for those labs found the gas was on and had to shut off the gas.

As for the broken glass, theyd break something then throw it in the dirty glassware bin hoping no one would find out. Which is sad because students shouldnt be afraid of it being found out that they broke glassware on accident. Almost everyone breaks glassware on accident eventually. I just want that broken glassware to be dealt with correctly so I dont find out what they did when dealing with the dirty glassware after class.

Tbh these numbers dont surprise me much given my experiences as a lab coordinator. The highschool students were far far more prone to mistakes and accidents than the college students were and those were the gifted students. Theyd do stuff like leave broken glassware and glass shards in the dirty glassware bins for me to find. One tried to cause an explosion by turning the gas on for all the bunsen burners and walking out. (Instructor reprimanded for leaving them in the lab unattended, student was expelled) The point is I am not surprised by these numbers at all.

Lithium salts are used to treat bipolar. The metal isnt just reacting with the water on your tongue to create a very strong base (and lots of heat), you are also going to be ingesting that Lithium (as a lithium soap as it reacts with oils and fats) which can have different (unpleasant) effects on you depending on how much was ingested. If your kidney function is impaired, it gets worse.

Lithium, Sodium etc. need to be upped to “please reconsider.” Calcium and all the lanthanides are also metals I would not advise licking because theyre very reactive. Promethium is especially dangerous due to its radioactivity with its longest lived isotope having a half life of around 17 years. So not only is it reactive, youd die to the radiation too.

The number of solutions/roots is equal to the highest power x is raised to (there are other forms with different rules and this applies to R and C not higher order systems)

Some roots can be complex and some can be duplicates but when it comes to the real and complex roots, that rule generally holds.

You know what is scary? FOOF, ClF3 and fluorine arent the most reactive or horrifying of the oxidizers. There’s much worse.

And the other times that this exact meme was reposted elsewhere.

See no evil hear no evil

Your body doesnt know where your lungs, kidneys, heart etc. are. And your brain wouldnt either without the necropsies and impromtu surgeries that were done to figure all of that out.

Higher end Samsung ssds were dying a lot faster than they should. I dont know what drugs your friend is on thinking they cant fail but theyd better have enough for the rest of the class.
