Organic Farm Denies Use of Dihydrogen Monoxide

@flabdablet At some point, any aspiring chemist worth his salt will realize that everything is just electrons moving around. :)
-
@Rhywden Not quite. Molecular reconfiguration matters quite a bit too.

Which is ... electrons moving around :)

Well, yes. In much the same way as IT is just bits changing state.
-
@Rhywden It's moving the nuclei too; the redistribution of the mass matters. This is all more important for understanding catalytic processes than for simple reactions.

Cholesterol-free peanut butter. Made from peanuts without livers.
Just as well, since the whole idea of dietary cholesterol having a significant affect on serum cholesterol was already known to be hooey when people started the whole idea of low-cholesterol foods back in the 1970s.
Most larger lipids, including all sterol rings, get broken down by the combination of stomach acids and bile (which disperses the lipids so that the HCl have enough surface to affect on the otherwise hydrophobic lipid chains). The intestines cannot take up any large lipids - again, including all the ringed lipids - that make it past the stomach, so they simply get excreted. Serum cholesterol is a byproduct of various actions in the... I want to say liver, but I don't recall. Anyway, while overall lipid intake has some affect on it, most of the serum and body lipids are synthesized in situ from glucose and other precursors.
Huh? Cholesterol is absorbed in the small intestine and can have short term effects on serum cholesterol until homeostatic mechanisms have time to level it out.
Hmmn, I guess my information was wrong, or more likely, I misunderstood it. Thank you.

@Dreikin it's not "technically correct" to intentionally use the wrong definition, though. Just obnoxious.

Meh, based on my legal name it would be Rogue Crescent. while the name I am considering changing it to would be either White Crescent or White Temptress, depending on whether I decide to keep my original surname or not.
Filed Under: Godspiller Mightwill? Well, it's better than the one for my legal name - Toenailwetter Northshout is so silly that it might be worth changing my name just to get rid of that...
-
I guess that makes me
"Scarred @#$!&" or whatever is in the white text on the white wolf under the white letter that's probably where L would be since I could make out M.
Oh... it's Fang. I'm "Scarred Fang". Not as clever as "Scar Face"
So, I'm going to assume L is Face.... so I'm Scarface.

But don't forget that some ions are polyatomic.
On names, I am apparently either Grey Red (??) or Beardseep Keenwill. Or my forum name gets me Grey Hunter or Beardflop Cashfill.
Perhaps I should grow a beard. On the other hand, I don't know what "Beardseep" is but it sounds like it would be unpleasant.

Sounds quite organic.

There needs to be a version of the name chart that creates names like Big McLargehuge.

I propose that "Beardseep" be the name for what happens when you're eating soup and some of it drips into your beard and becomes trapped within until the next time you thoroughly rinse your beard.

You mean until you wring your beard out to get the rest. (Good to the last drop.)

Your soup must be weak and thin if you think that it's possible to just wring it out. I would rip out my entire beard with the force it would take to get soup out of my beard, usually. Dreadful business, beardseep. It's sort of like the capillary effect. The soup just flows in and stays there until you flush it out.

@thegoryone Read up on the history of organic chemistry. It's pretty interesting. Organic in that sense means molecules that contain carbon. Organic food means something completely different. But yes, the latter is a subset of the former. But technically an inorganic chemical can be part of organic food.

@swayde I am apparently White Red.

@Rhywden said in Organic Farm Denies Use of Dihydrogen Monoxide:
I usually go for compounds including at least one heteroatom (usually hydrogen). Then you can be pretty sure it is indeed organic.
Like sodium carbonate?
-
@Maciejasjmj Monosodium glutamate really is an organic salt.
-
@Maciejasjmj That's why I said pretty sure, not absolutely certain :)
-
@accalia Yes, we do. Coal definitely falls into organic chemistry.
Broadly speaking, organic compounds are ones that contain carbon and behave in a "hydrocarbon-y" or "carbohydrate-y" way. Carbon dioxide isn't considered an organic chemical (although it's the product of a lot of organic chemistry) and neither are carbonates or carbides.
-
@thegoryone I think a lot of people who are into organic stuff want to "collect them all", even for categories of foods where it doesn't matter. I'm pretty sure I've seen organic bottled water.

@ben_lubar Silver candlesticks aren't likely to stop werewolves, you silly person.
-
@FrostCat That depends on how fast they are moving. A silver candlestick moving at the speed of sound will do an immense amount of damage to a werewolf when it hits.
-
@dkf But you'd only have to resort to such silliness in the absence of a gun. Therefore, if werewolves are a concern, you should have a gun handy.

No. You just need a gun with a larger bore barrel.
