Anyhow, on a lighter note, did you know that if it wasn't for the covalent nature of Carbon-Carbon and Carbon-Hydrogen bonds, we'd dissolve every time we farted in the bath.

We also wouldn't exist (or at least be as we are). Hydrogen bonding and the unique combination of properties of water/ice are key to why life evolved in an aqueous form.

 

So there !!:p

 

Mike, can I have you Pedant Crown please ?

ok mr. scientist people.

 

Answer me this :

What gas makes a fart really smelly ?.

Why do they really bad ones smell like bad eggs, even though you haven't had eggs all week.

 

Also:

Why is it that when we puke up, there are always carrots in it ?. Even if you never had a carrot in your life ?.

 

Also:

Why do you never see baby pigeons ?

Mike, can I have you Pedant Crown please ?

 

No. :D

 

For 2 reasons, really. The first is the use of "you" in place of "your" in the above sentence and the second is because it's my crown, Mike stole it.

 

:D ;)

For the really, REALLY pedantic, when I said "above sentence" I meant the sentence written by Nelson Mainfella and not my sentence of "No."

 

 

Okay? ;)

 

 

 

 

 

(Edited to keep Gio happy. ;))

I think Mike gets to keep the crown, because if you want me to change the "you" to "your" none of my sentances would be correct grammar. For instance...

Hydrogen sulphide.

 

acids in stomach reacting with food ?

 

Dunno

 

:confused: Is that a joke ?

1) shouldn't that be "smw1" not "SMW1"?

2) It was Nelson's request anyway, not smw1's.

3) H2S is quite right. Both for smelly farts and bad eggs.

Sometimes mine smell very much like hydrogen peroxide (which is used in perm lotion)

So how about the carrots and baby pigeons ?

I think if you re-read...I quoted the sentence in question. :p

 

 

My crown. :D

I knew someone would pick that up, but couldn't be bothered editing it. :D

And.. and... and......

 

as soon as I can think of a snappy come back, I'll post one :D

wouldnt baby pigeons be eggs?!?! :D

 

carrots, as everyone knows, are stored in the "carrot storage in case of chuck up" bladder, in the upper intestines, which only releases the carrots when vomiting. :D

Anita.... tut tut. editing your posts. Good job I quoted you in mine. You can't edit that one :p ;)

 

Interesting theory about the carrots Paul.

LOL...

 

If you notice I did claim to have edited it and why! :D :D

 

Ah well. ;)

Shouldn't this be in the Tech Section??? I'm gonna report this to a moderator! LOL

 

:D :D

Agreed,

 

Ooh, a late entry.

 

Do we have a new pretender to the "Crown of Pedantry" ...

 

Off to bed now ... drunken!

 

CheerZZZZZZZ,

John.:D :D

And they're called "squabs" by the way. :D

Boys and girls, now then now then. (Grammatically not the best constructed sentence ever I admit but, nevertheless, still acceptable after this quantity of Stella!)

 

Leave my crown alone! It's not yours Ajay, you lost it fair and square. And no one else can lay claim to it either, 'coz you've got to be a more pedantic tw*t than me to get it and that's blatantly impossible.

 

I thank you.

Anyway, do you want to expand on that? Can I take it you're implying aqueous form as opposed to aquatic?

:D What a load of old b0ll0x!!! :D

 

The carrots is easy - its not carrots, its the lining of your stomach :D:D:D TRUTH!!! Enjoy your next puke ROFLMFAO :D

 

CheerZ,

 

Andy

this is the least, and I MEAN least pedanty thing I would ever wish to say, but Ajay - your signature is the most poignant thing I have read all day :(

Regarding the carroty conundrum - its because beta-carotine, the stuff that makes carrots orange and used for food colouring, doesn't get digested inside yer tum. Therefore any other bits and pieces in there get soaked in the stuff and come out looking orange. Yum :)
