Vanity. I need your help to ban a dangerous chemical
12.5.11

Posted on 12/05/2011 5:36:44 PM PST by InvisibleChurch

A friend of mine sent me an email about a chemical being used every where we go. It's called dihydrogen monoxide. He said it does a lot of nasty things to people. Some of them are:

it causes excessive sweating and vomiting

it's a major component in acid rain

it can cause severe burns in its gaseous state

accidental inhalation of this can kill you

it contributes to erosion

it decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes

it has been found in tumors of terminal cancer patients

Some years ago I wrote a letter to my Congresscritter aabout the “dangers of H2O. I gussied it up pretty well, dropped it in the mail and forgot about it. About six months later, I got a call from his office, a very irate-sounding voice asking, “Are you trying to make the Congressman look like a fool?” Those people have no sense of humor.

Penn & Teller circulated a petition to ban dihydrogen monoxide. And another to ban female suffrage. They got a lot of signatures on both petitions.

Mixed in proper proportions with Scotch Whiskey I would recommend it as a medicinal concoction, good for what ails you.
1 part dihydrogen monoxide to 4 parts Scotch Whiskey seems to work pretty well, and it kills the fishy taste.
Just don’t use the good single malt stuff, that should be taken straight at room temperature for the best results.

“It’s especially lethal to Democrats when soap is added.”

I heard the same combination ended the OWS occupations.

Yeah, it’s a lame old joke, but substitute CO2 for H2O, and get AlGore to hype it, and you’ll get whole governments to start treating it like a pollutant.
