Heated Ceramic


So apparently ceramic plates don't like being left on a hot burner for 10 minutes. Oh, and then put in the sink. The second that plate hit the cold sink, it just kinda shattered like this. Crazy.

I'm sure there's a science lesson in there, but they didn't teach that shit in high school ChemCom (it stood for Chemistry in the Community, and it was for the sorry-ass chemistry students). Even if they did I'm sure I fell asleep that day.

Chemistry sucks. Not as much as physics or math, but it sucks.

You know what else sucked? Picking all those tiny ceramic shards out of the sink. The next time I ran the disposal it sounded like a thousand paperclips were in there. Did I run the disposal again? Yes I did.

It was like a scarlet letter for science dipshits. that class was a low point.

I bet you would have had more fun with Chemistry if Ohio got in on this action:

I'm pretty sure ChemCom is a red flag for chemathon entrants. No way they would have let me in.
