Then tell me young grasshoppa, why is the following more amusing than disturbing? If you get it don't ruin it for others.

BAN DIHYDROGEN MONOXIDE - THE INVISIBLE KILLER!

Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year.

What are the dangers of Dihydrogen Monoxide?

Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly, nausea, and vomiting. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death.

Dihydrogen Monoxide Facts

Dihydrogen monoxide:

is also known as hydric acid, and is the major component of acid rain. contributes to the Greenhouse Effect. may cause severe burns. contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape. accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals. may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes. has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.

Dihydrogen Monoxide Alerts

Contamination is reaching epidemic proportions! Quantities of dihydrogen monoxide have been found in almost every stream, lake, and reservoir in America today. But the pollution is global, and the contaminant has even been found in Antarctic ice. In the midwest alone DHMO has caused millions of dollars of property damage.

Dihydrogen Monoxide Uses

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used: as an industrial solvent and coolant. in nuclear power plants. in the production of styrofoam. as a fire retardant. in many forms of cruel animal research. in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical. as an additive in certain junk-foods and other food products

OMG BAN IT! BAN IT!

The really funny part is some people REALLY don't know what you're talking about. Some of them are on this very board! Scary, isn't it?

hahahahahahaha. clue: carbon dioxide = CO2 (dihydrogen monoxide =?)

Post by **GEO** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:38 am

oh man, I suck at chemistry.

ahahah good stuff.i'm freakin addicted to dihydrogen monoxide. i think i would die without it

Post by **ride4lame** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:38 am

I love that ish too, its like they say, everything thats good, is bad for you.haha

It took me a minute, but i got it, and i suck at chemistry.

http://www.dhmo.org take a look at the bottom of the MSDS

Post by **Touchdown038** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:38 am

LOL.

I'm kicking myself for not getting it before.

And yeah I'm addicted to it also. I love it!

H20, thats easy. I guess it helps that im taking chemistry right now :pface

this is such great proof that if you don't mention the good things and only tell people the bad things, they will hate it.

Well, I learned at least one thing in AP Chem last year . . . too bad I'll still have to take it in college, ugh. :-(

That was the same situation with me when I was in chemistry. I couldn't help but laugh when the teacher asked for questions, and some legitimate concerns came up.

Oh **** I wasnt even thinkin.

Post by **D1SR240** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:38 am

good one man..

Post by **stretch240sx** » Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:38 am

took me a few seconds to get it... i was half way through and then was like DI= 2 hydrogen= H ohhhhh **** lol im dumb...
