Here a few of the funniest and stupidest thing's I've ever heard...
"The isopropyl alcohol may have broken down into some hazardous carcinogen over these years" -Chemically Retarded Anonymous "That bleach is really old, it might have all bad kinds of bacteria in it now" -Chemically Retarded Anonymous "Dude, do you think I could ship myself to canada if I used DHL?" -Osthato Chetowa "IRC is just multiplayer notepad." -Reverend “Electricity is actually made up of extremely tiny particles called electrons that you cannot see with the naked eye unless you have been drinking.†-Dave Barry "Do you have mole problems? If so, call Avogadro at 602-1023." -Jay Leno "24 volts really is enough to kill you, remember that current is voltage times resistance. It's very dangerous with that much resistance." -Electrically Retarded Anonymous "Pissing off these crystals can cause them to become quite violent" - Jollyroger "Susan was in chemistry. Susan is no more, for what Susan thought was H2O was H2SO4." -Jupiter Scientific "Is gasoline flamable? You'll find out after this!" -Adam Savage "Am I missing an eyebrow? I am missing an eyebrow arn't I?" - Adam Savage "I am an expert of electricity. My father occupied the chair of applied electricity at the state prison." -W.C. Fields

my dad just sent me this one
"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms. . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson

"mine hurts ALOT when i ty to touch it,is that normal?" -fnord
