Someone give me some context
Alfred Nobel invented dynamite, for mining, by doing what the meme says (I don’t know what “fossilized algae” refers to, but it makes the nitro not go boom, when it really wants to boom). After seeing what it was eventually used for (bombs. Lots and lots of bombs) he regretted ever making it. He set up the Nobel Peace Prize as a result, to try and even the scales a bit, so to speak
I don’t know what “fossilized algae” refers to
Looked it up:
Nobel found that when nitroglycerin was incorporated in an absorbent inert substance like kieselguhr (diatomaceous earth) it became safer and more convenient to handle, and this mixture he patented in 1867 as “dynamite”.
Diatomaceous earth consists of the fossilized remains of diatoms, a type of hard-shelled microalgae.
Ooh. Diatomaceous earth is also the best safest healthiest most humane method of fending off bed bugs.
I’m all for being humane but I would stab a bed bug with a pin and yell “die, fucker”. Same goes for mosquitos, ticks and fleas.
Isn’t diotemacious earth cancer causing if you breath it in?
Such a good idea it gives me an idea for an award with a prize attached
I’ll call it the Me Prize
For a fun prank, pour out a small drop of Nitroglycerin and smack it with a hammer to scare your friends. :^)
Ah, a fun little joke I can do with the nitroglycerin I definitely don’t have because that would probably be illegal
