    If you mix formaldehyde and bleach it creates a poisonous gas.

    A more common mistake is Bleach and Ammonia:

    "Likely Chemical Reactions from Mixing Bleach and Ammonia

    The bleach decomposes to form hydrochloric acid, which reacts with ammonia to form toxic chloramine fumes:

    First the hydrochloric acid is formed:

    NaOCl → NaOH + HOCl

    HOCl → HCl + O

    And then the ammonia and chlorine gas react to form chloramine, which is released as a vapor:

    NaOCl + 2HCl → Cl2 + NaCl + H2O

    2NH3 + Cl2 → 2NH2Cl

    If ammonia is present in excess (which it may or may not be, depending on your mixture), toxic and potentially explosive liquid hydrazine may be formed. While impure hydrazine tends not to explode, it's still toxic, plus it can boil and spray hot toxic liquid.

    2NH3 + NaOCl → N2H4 + NaCl + H2O"

    Does sound like a very fun time from mixing two common household products

    Hydrazine... Yeah, we used it as a fuel for emergency engine (planes). On the other hand, we also used uranium for weight balance.
    Guess why they've been retired :P

    I just remembered that when I was 12 I bought a bookmark because it came with
    The One Ring (I was obsessed with LOTR) and it got stuck on my middle finger for 3 days and I had to go to emerg and wait for hours just for them to cut if off.

    It betrayed me.

    After they cut your finger off, did you get to keep the ring since it was still fully functional or did you bury it along with your body part?

    Um...der... it's the One Ring. ;)

    From a Spotify suggestion
    I loved you once, I loved you twice
    I loved you in my previous lives
    And when I die, just keep in mind
    I'll love you in another life

    Carter Hall and Chay-Ara immediately come to mind.

    Star Trek lures you into a false sense of positivity that the world can be a utopia and recent events have proven it cannot. Star Wars’ dystopic vision is far more realistic and prepares our children for their future.
