    Most drowning victims lost their lifes in this stuff! It’s dangerous at fuck.

    Also one hydrogen is already volatile, just imagine what two of them do!

    100% of people consuming it have died. Eventually. That stuff is dangerous!

      False. I have consumed it and haven’t died.

      I might in the future, but haven’t died as of today.

          Yes, which doesn’t make it true. The “have died eventually” applies to all participants in the battle of Trafalgar. Didn’t immediately, but after some time. All dead now.

          I’ve drunk water. I have not died.

              Maybe. The fact is not everyone who consumed it has died.

    Everyone knows dihydrogen monoxide is water, they’re not going to ban it. What we need to ban is hydric acid, that’s the most dangerous chemical in the world.

    This has been done too much, I’d like to see a campaign to ban sodium chloride instead.

    Ever since high school chemistry, I’ve wondered if it would be more correct to refer to it as hydrogen hydroxide. Yes? No?
