bromine is too sweet.

[budullewraagh]

bromine and rp is cooler

[budullewraagh]

by the way, personally, i hate bromine. it gave me mild pulmonary edema two days ago. today i'm feeling better but it was no fun at all. i'm going to write an email to the al-chymist telling them how they almost completely screwed me over

[Gilded]

"i'm going to write an email to the al-chymist telling them how they almost completely screwed me over"

 

Hmm? Because of the bromine impurities? And didn't Al-chymist stop selling... stuff just recently (which was the reason they had the sale with low prices and all)?

[budullewraagh]

nope, i ordered a few weeks ago and they are still selling. my potassium iodide had a great amount of potassium bromide mixed with it

[Gilded]

Are you sure there wasn't a small print that said "This KI has great amounts of KBr impurities that will kill you if you use it for anything"?

 

Edit: Btw, was Al-chymist one of those chem providers who don't sell outside US?

[budullewraagh]

no fine print:\

 

i dont think they sell outside the us. dont buy from them

[Gilded]

"i dont think they sell outside the us. dont buy from them"

 

Well, if they don't sell outside US I have no problem with receiving deadly bromine impurities with my chemicals.

[budullewraagh]

i dont agree. you don't want bromide impurities with your KI. i totally messed up my reaction and i couldn't sleep in my room that night. had a difficult time hiding this from my mother. my father was in my room at the time, so i had a difficult time trying to display the urgency of the situation without making him panic:\

 

bromine is not fun. at all.

[YT2095]

Bud, You have SOOOOOO gotta post that in the "Experiments gone wrong" thread, I never realised your Dad was there at the time! ROFLOL )

 

the look on your face must have been a real Kodak Moment )

[budullewraagh]

yeah, he was like "woah whats with the smell of rotten eggs?"

i was like "RUN. NOW." as i ran to my window with the beaker in my hand

[boris_73]

what your dad lets you do these experiments i have to wait untill they go out before i can do mine but its not that bad dad works away and mums on call so my parents are hardly here, this is an example of how strict my parents are i wanted to do a simple electrolesis when i was about 12-13 years old and to do that i had to beg my parents, then i had to do it outside and away from the house, so now i just wait untill they are out before i do them and heres a thing to remember its much easier to say sorry then it is to ask for permision:))))

[budullewraagh]

nice punctuation:\

 

yeah, they let me do lab work

[YT2095]

and so they should! sounds like you have good and well ballanced parents!

 

I know when I become a dad, my child will have the Chemistry set from hell, and full supervision/encouragement

 

coupled with anything else he/she wants to mess with or is curious about

 

I would reccomend that you share your work with them tho, esp the succeses!

that when you BAD up, it`s just "One of those things Son" )

[Gilded]

"I know when I become a dad, my child will have the Chemistry set from hell, and full supervision/encouragement :)"

 

Are you going to find out if it's a boy or girl before the birth? More than boys, girls tend to have odd habits like "I don't like blowing things up with lethal and corrosive chemicals". )

[YT2095]

Don`t be so sexist!

 

some of the best EODist are female and in Civilian ranks Ex/Demo and Pyro have a high percentage of Female Employees in the field too!

 

as well as designers!

 

 

Don`t sell them short!

[Gilded]

Well OK, point taken. And now that we're talking about demolition, I might even say that men are generally less careful with explosives than women, or then I'm just missing all the articles about WOMEN receiving grade three burns or losing bodyparts due to making a fatal and stupid, chemical related mistake.

[jdurg]

Well, all it takes is one 'explosive' encounter with a nice woman and BLAMMO, you have kids.

[Gilded]

"Well, all it takes is one 'explosive' encounter with a nice woman and BLAMMO, you have kids."

 

Note to jdurg: Use a condom that's NOT made of nitrocellulose next time.

[YT2095]

Well, all it takes is one 'explosive' encounter with a nice woman and BLAMMO, you have kids.

this can indeed be the case! )

[budullewraagh]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh gilded why did you say that? it hurts man.

 

speaking of women, i suggest this to you all: never even try to use your scientific minds in your relationship because chances are it wont work. i tried. didn't work. oh females...

[YT2095]

oh boy have YOU ever not met the right Girly then! ))

 

I can discuss Science all day long with mine, and yes, even Sci-Fi!

she`s my A Number 1 Lab assitant too, and often gives me ideas for experimentation adaptions/allterations.

 

how cool is that!

 

 

ya gotta find the right Girl dude

[budullewraagh]

gene pool is too small around here and most just aren't serious enough. i found the right one, but she had emotional luggage that got between us. funniest thing is that she is the most rational girl i know

[jdurg]

Sadly, the only science interested women I have ever met were so hideously nasty that it would take a constant influx of ethanol to make them doable.

[YT2095]

well she`s either worth staying with and helping out, or she aint

 

anyway, Bromine! (semi-current topic rellated) keep WELL AWAY from it and it`s salts if you wish to maintain any type of Libido (sex drive) too!

 

it has a somewhat deleterious effect upon it

[budullewraagh]

oh so that explains it
