Florine ain't nothin to fuck with. Shit will set asbestos on fire. Shit will set water on fire. Shit will set anything on fire.

Just don't confuse it with fluoride.

Instructions unclear; set teeth on fire.

I thought that was just the ridiculous amounts of concentrated menthol some brands put in toothpaste.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 month ago

That’s the mouthwash.

Wait what if

Here me out

What if Florine IS fire. So OF COURSE you mix it with anything and the result is fire

Ghosts can't go through walls. It's not florine!

Modern day chemists have succeeded where the alchemists of old failed by finally isolating phlogiston.

You'd better watch what you say!

I can't figure out how to timestamp it on my iPhone, but 1:30.

[–] don@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wherever you pause a video and share, the receiver will start the video at that timestamp.

Apparently not on iOS because I tried exactly that.

[–] don@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Your link ends with “?=90” and when I tapped your link, it started me of at 1:30.

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 0 points 1 month ago

I did like 4 different edits of that url and every time it started at 0. Just tested and it was right. Welp.....

Hey, sure, singlet fluorine is real bad, but even diatomic fluorine is only barely less reactive than singlet.

[–] CuriousRefugee@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Obviously AI slop! No one is able to spell flourine correctly twice!

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 month ago

Some aren't able to spell it right once

Tangential: my friends made fun of me when I pronounced every syllable in phenolphthalein including the "f" of the second ph.

Skill issue

A bunch of electrons? Nah F only ever wants just one more than its natural allotment. But it is extremely, violently jealous of that electron.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 0 points 1 month ago

It's just saving some for later! Or to give to its friends. Idk it's been a while since I took chem.

[–] edwardbear@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

“You’ll be charged for this” is a better ending though.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Dammit, didn't even think of that one.

The imperfection is perfect

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I hope this came from my comment in the other thread about napkin art. I love these. We should keep going ❤️

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 0 points 1 month ago

Your comment was definitely part of the inspiration. :)

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 0 points 1 month ago

Fluorine's back is giving me trypophbia vibes.

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I really enjoyed your locally produced all natural hand drawn meme :3 x
