Homeopathy debate.

I know how to end the debate. Give me a glass of water with just enough cyanide to kill me, and give it the homeopathy treatment. According to them, it should kill me instantly. If I survive, they're wrong.

If you had more phosphorous in your diet I'm sure you would be able to tell.

You're better off eating raw potassium.

You're better off eating raw potassium.

You do that and let me know how that works out for you.

Have you ever heard of sarcasm?

But seriously, I know a kid that tried to steal some Potassium from the school science lab after seeing how cool it was during an experiment. He took it out of the alcohol it was being stored in and put it in his pocket. 

How bad were the burns?

Odd, I've heard this same story from like 10 different people. I'm pretty sure it's an urban myth.

In that case, it's rare, as we're now experiencing it second-hand rather than third-hand.

A kid at my old school (A third cousin, incidently) once stole one of the alkaline metals from the school stores,  the teacher spotted him with something, asked what he had in his hand so to hide the evidence he dropped the open jar into a full sink behind him.

the ceiing tiles were peppered with shards of broken glass and he was suspended.

True story.

My brother-in-law's third cousin, twice removed, stole some cesium from the school cafeteria and accidentally dropped it into a vat of liquid helium, thereby discovering cold fusion. Bitches.

At this very moment I am attempting to steal an education from my school.  Those damn student loan people keep calling though.

How bad were the burns?

He didn't ake very much, but he couldn't walk for quite a while.
