Default A public-service message that could SAVE YOUR LIFE!

With teh approach of the end of teh summer season, along with it's accompanying long, holiday weekend, I thougt I'd take a moment to warn everybody about the dangers of DiHydrogen-MonOxide. Personally, it has caused at least one friend of mine to become paralyzed (<--an honestly, true statement), and, has almost KILLED ME, on two, seperate occasions (<--another true statement).

I found a website that does a pretty good job of outlining teh perils of DHMO. I think it's worth a look: DHMO KILLS!!!

Have a safe, and happy Labor-Day weekend everybody!

DHMO ruined the paint on my car.

I drink a half gallon of DHMO a day to build up my tolerance to toxic substances. By October I should be able to do shots of mercury with no side effects.

Wasn't this on an episode of "Penn & Teller; Bullsh!t" not too long ago? The one about people over-reacting about the environment and all? I wonder if as many people here don't know what "H2O" means as people on that show....

Plus, Penn & Teller are ok, but they've got nothing on my "disappearing/reappearing post trick"

What would make you say that? Nothing is wrong with my post (but don't quote me on that).

No really, don't quote me.

I thikn OMEONE may be HOOKED on DHMO... Do you need an intervention, my friend? Cause, if so, we'd be happy try to ween you off the stuff with ever increasing doses of anhydrous ethanol. The ONLY known antidote!

DHMO has caused a Putfile error. It is clearly time for an intervention.

Better to do huge lines of blow than to get too hooked on DHMO.

There is no more PutFile error. PutFile has started to suck donkey *****.

At least, I'm assuming that's what they're doing. I don't know that I'd really recognise the symptoms, but that's what I'm guessing the problem is.

Wow, I think I can say anything I want like this with relative impunity. Maybe I'll start quoting erotic stories just for fun.....

DHMO, in large enough quantities can also cause a state of confusion... As shown^^^

Seek help, Silver. DHMO addictions CAN be beat
