I've always wanted to dump the fist-sized jar of Na metal into a sink full of water! :p

at my high school a kid tried to steal some sodium from the chemistry lab, but the teacher suspected him of doing so and when called into the teachers office the student tried to dispose of the sodium by flushing down the toilet. Needless to say the toilet subsequently exploded and the student got into considerable trouble.

They should have disposed of barrels of surplus vinegar next. :laugh:

No. No. No. Bad. Wrong. No.

The post contained the word "vinegar" and the phonetically-spelled "doosh."

There's something about that link that makes me a bit hesitant to click it.


And after hearing it, I only recognized a few words, but one of them was in the title.
