I have to do this web evaluation paper for my info gathering class and the first website we have to evaluate is www.dhmo.org. It took me a good five minutes of reading before I got it. I've even seen this before. I feel dum.

Oh man, my professor got me. (Not the chemistry humor topic)

Little Bobby took a drink but he will drink no more. Cause what he tought was H2O was H2SO4.Last edited by DarkwingChuck; 02-23-2006, 12:14 AM.I want that Mulan McNugget sauce, Morty!

Re: Oh man, my professor got me.
This is actually a very old "hoax":

My Chemistry professor showed us the Penn & Teller scene.

Re: Oh man, my professor got me.
Yeah...
I wrote a report on a similar article in a Chemical Journal for Quantitative Analysis.
It was the April Issue (April Fools Joke Article) and we just happened to have a "literature project " due that week.
But Since this seems thread to be taking a turn towards becoming the Chemistry Humor Topic:
I hope you like Gilbert and Sullivan:
The Chemist Inorganical
To the Tune of "Modern Major General"
CHEMIST
I am the very model of a Chemist Inorganical
I will not touch Combustion nor those processes Botanical
I find esters and carboxylic acids to be quite a bore
So since College I have not dealt with Hydrocarbons anymore
I detest pi and sigma bonds; while counting them I almost cried,
Who cares that CH2O is how one writes Formaldehyde?
Of compounds found in nature I've no interest; that's not my thing
I dread each second that I think about that awful Benzene Ring
LAB ASSISTANTS
He dreads each second that he thinks about that awful Benzene Ring
He dreads each second that he thinks about that awful Benzene Ring
He dreads each second that he thinks about that awful Benzene Ring
CHEMIST
You see I'm much more interested in aspects theoretical
And forming inert gas compounds via methods synthetical
Since I've no interest in Life Processes or those Botanical
I am the very model of a Chemist Inorganical
LAB ASSISTANTS
He has no no interest in Life Processes or those Botanical
He is the very model of a Chemist Inorganical
CHEMIST
Orbitals, Shells, de Broglie and Hunds Rule I find Glorious
While calculating frequency I'm in a state uproariuos
Reporting Lab Results is a process in which I can assist
At times I'm less a Chemist and More a Data Analyst
I'm interested in Heisenberg and in Nuclear Mass Defect
I swing a bit t'ward Physics, Shnell's Law, how a prism can reflect
I'm great at nomenclature; with complex ions I am first rate
Like PtCl4-minus is Tetrachloro Platinate.
LAB ASSISTANTS
Like PtCl4-minus is Tetrachloro Platinate.
Like PtCl4-minus is Tetrachloro Platinate.
Like PtCl4-minus is Tetrachloro Platinate.
CHEMIST
At best I only dabble in the field of calorimetry
I concentrate on optical coordinate symmetry
I care far less for alkynes, more for energy mechanical
I am the very model of a Chemist Inorganical
LAB ASSISTANTS
He cares far less for alkynes, more for energy mechanical
He is the very model of a Chemist Inorganical
I Got A Million Of 'Em!
Peace.

Re: Oh man, my professor got me.
That's just some basic Chemistry terminology (and a few key names of Scientists).
I made the mistake of getting the degree and picked up tons of such material along the way... the problem is finding an audience!
I'm sure our College friends will get most of it... I hope.
Oy.Last edited by Rodak; 02-23-2006, 04:18 AM.
