I hope everyone’s fine with this, but I want to take a break from the laughs to give a very super serious warning about the dangers of Dihydrogen Monoxide, a potentially fatal chemical that is used in the manufacture of pesticides, nuclear weapons, and even illegal chemical weapons. It has found its way into most of our lakes and streams, is frequently found in high concentrations in rainwater, and it is estimated at least 80% of our children have been exposed to and even ingested it as early as age 5. Not only that but it is still widespread and legally used in vaccines, prescription medicine, and even over-the-counter medications. Millions of people have died from exposure to this chemical. Help spread the word today and demand legislation against Dihydrogen Monoxide :’(
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

First time I heard someone call water “dihydrogen monoxide”. I think I will made up my own word to spread a hoax.

@Splinter  
How was it called in your chemistry classes?

@The Smiling Pony  
I don’t think people actually call water “dihydrogen monoxide” in chemistry.

@Scrabbleman  
We did in mine (well, the spanish version of it)…

@Scrabbleman  
In chemistry, it’s called water. “Dihydrogen monoxide” makes sense for the technical name for it as well.
 
I forgot where I first heard about the DHMO joke. It was quite a while ago.
 
@Badumsquish  
I’ll be sure to check for this dangerous chemical wherever I go.
 
I believe rain contains very high levels of DHMO, so carry an umbrella and stay safe.

@Badumsquish  
Dihydrogen Monoxide can also cause the bodies of some people to literally melt if their skin makes contact with it.
 
One example of this is the Wicked Witch of the West.

This is like eh… a thing now…

Technically Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide (alkali naming convention) and Hydric/Hydroxic/Hydroxyl Acid (acidic naming convention) are all correct terms for water. They’re just not used because water is such a commonplace chemical. I just love how it people use it to expose the ignorance of people who fall for fear-mongering chemical scares :D

 
”Owowow Owowowow!“  

it’s that time again

Why are people laughing at the gun? It’s a old bolt-action rifle, man! It’s awesome!
