        I’ve also heard that electrons in them cannot be relied upon - especially to be anywhere that they say they will (instead, they zip off to the other side of the whole galaxy/universe, then before you can tell anyone they’re gone, they are back again!) :-P.

    HOW DARE YOU BAD MOUTH RUST LIKE THAT! Rust is natural, and isn’t anything bad. Let your body rust, and accept it’s warm embrace.

    Rust on the Myrtle Beach ferris wheel has also been shown to reduce fertility levels of crabs nearby, causing a dramatic drop in their population and California Bill 34 was passed to drastically limit how many can be caught, devastating the local fisheries!

    For more information, Google “Rust ferris crab rule 34”

      It can burn diamond at 720 °C, what do you think it’ll do to soft tissue over the course of an entire lifetime. Things helping aerobic life survive are
      a) partially consisting of partially oxidized polymers in the form of carbohydrates (remember, the only thing that cannot burn is what has already been burned);
      b) oxygen’s peculiar, natural triplet state which greatly slows down its kinetics compared e.g. to its horrible relative, ozone.

    Oxidative stress is a major factor in health and longevity. People who stop breathing oxygen before dieing generally live a bigger proportion of their lives healthy on average.

        It won’t float away if you freeze it first, of course it will sublimate away but not all at once.

        Edit: Melts, doesn’t sublimate, still won’t melt all at once though.

            Good point, though it still won’t melt all at once though it takes time to melt and boil (not much time but still takes time).

        That’s just lack of creativity from your part.

        The OP didn’t say the composition of the pedestal, if it has cavities, its temperature…

    I thought this will somehow relate to rust programming language

    Who’s got that copypasta about how humans breathe poison and if you break their legs they just keep following you?
