It depends on where you are, I think. Was yours more of a beer lab or a wine lab?
Speak for yourself. I'm way less safe if I'm not constantly downing coffee
I tasted HCl, Copper sulfate. Inhaled chlorine. Touched sodium metal.
You want more🙂🙃
Isopropyl alcohol ftw, IMHO.
This guy labs.
Maybe she was doing experiments on it?
(Anyone with access to an ion ray wanna tell me what opens when you aim it at a cuppa?)
Save money on a lab shaker by drinking a sufficient amount of coffee.
The concept reminds me of a song written by the Brett Domino Trio that exclusively uses "three letter words".
Every time. Absolutely cracks me up.
It also has an official music video, but it's weird, because I could actually listen to this one as a normal song, but it's not nearly as funny as the Countdown version.
