yes. i'm deferring the paper because i've got a headache, fever, cough that doesnt stop and i also cant breathe.

weak i know. but its been a year..

and is it weird that i like the smell of amoxicillin?

[xALmoN]

Today i found out that its possible to burn things in the microwave, no idea how that moron does it.

[Birds]

Did you also know you can microwave water past the point of boiling?

[xALmoN]

to me, that's just a phase change into steam.

what about it? and why would anybody microwave water?

[CrispyFries]

It doesn't phase change and becomes super-heated - then you put the teaspoon in and burn your hand good

And to make coffee without a kettle

You'd be surprised...

This, and assumptions like Alvin's are why people burn themselves microwaving water - they either assume it can't go past boiling or they think it would simply evaporate past boiling. The worst is heating up baby's milk...and not testing it on your arm...it has been done before

[xALmoN]

interesting.

but with electric kettles as convenient as pushing a button. dont see why would people microwave water anyway, the whole cup gets hot.

[xALmoN]

guess i learn something new everyday. time to reevaluate those steam tables.

A little in column A, a little in column B?

[xALmoN]

Alvin knows how to make wild fire, true story.

[xALmoN]

you making me out to be like some terrorist.

[PENGUYEN]

Potential terrorist. Have the know how, dont have the motive, yet...

[xALmoN]

i'll never have the motive.

[blah_blah]

Alvin knows how to make wild fire, true story.

Are you ^ aware of wildfire Alvin?

If so, I would like to purchase 3 barrels

[PENGUYEN]

He is very aware. Explained it to me. I didn't understand. Something about dissolving Styrofoam into something else, then adding something that fuels the fire with oxygen so it can burn under water.

f**k robert feltrin, haha, slash dem tyres on his sportivo!
