That's really brilliant. I like the part where you don't even think about what's going to happen to you as a result.


Not everyone is as smart as you. And not everyone knows about Oxygen toxicity.

Yeah, it's kinda annoying when people's favourite element is oxygen when they only breathe in 20% of them and 70% of nitrogen instead of 100% of fricken oxygen! Why didn't nitrogen got some attention? :c I don't wanna know what's gonna happen to nature if there's no nitrogen cycle.

Because nitrogen SUCKS….. but in all seriousness if you removed oxygen from the cycle everyone would die …. like … fast.

also 20 + 70 = 90% not 100%

There are other things that make up air besides nitrogen and oxygen

Then the correct way of putting it would have been that oxygen makes up 21% of the air and nitrogen takes up 78%

He most likely pulled the percentages out of his head without bothering to google it like you did. It doesn't make much of an appreciable difference either way

lightning:
why?... well...
1st off, it the most interesting element
2nd, like earth, it has many forms, (thunder/electricity/lightning). like fire, it has many colors, (red/blue/yellow/white)
3rd, unlike other elements which can be controlled, lightning is one of natures uncontrollable elements (wild electicity)
4th, it cannot be tamed by using other element, (water tames fire) instead, it can cause or fuse with other elements,
5th, it is undisciplined and free, (awww....wished i could be lightning :^)
6th, it can be the loudest or most silent
7th, it can stay with in and outside of the law of physics, and has its own unfathomable flow

last but not least, this is not up for discussion ._. i'm out XDXDXDXDXD

Actually I didn't know. I just had the sense---the Common Sense---to google what happens.

Are you saying even you are incapable of learning new information?

I picked the things I picked for miscellaneous purposes. Because I'm worth elements serving miscellaneous purposes.

Zirconium didn't fit into your question. Couldn't figure that one out?

I figure you couldn't even afford diamonds so why settle for the real deal

Actually, it is, particularly considering that Lightning is not a scientific element. We aren't talking magic here (that is another poll). Lightning is actually electrons which then generate plasma (though this is irrelevant to the magically form, I suppose...).
Just thought I'd point something out....
