i'm down with what benzene is rocking.

at uni i would have known exactly what you meant. chemistry was my major, in fact. now, i could barely tell you what the chemical formula for water was.

This brown patch could use a little H2Oh yeah!

Uh oh. Hydrogen bonding at 10 o'clock!

Very funny, but how is all this supposed to increase my dick size

Dude it's all particle/wave and string theory now. How does this help you unless you're, like, dealing with actual physical science?

I always preferred covalent bonds. It's good to share.

oh yes covalent bonds. speshly those in aliphatic hydrocarbons. alkanes, ALKENES, ALKYNES!

I prefer Ionic. They sound good and solid and architectural, you know, like Ionic Columns. No messy divorces. No electron sharing arrangements that happen in those extended covalent families.

I still remember a mnemonic I came up with in Chem.

Hexagonal
Orthogonal
T
R
C
T
M

I don't even remember what it was for.
