    Every creature that had ever breathed oxygen, dies. That’s a 100% mortality rate.

      Every creature that hadn’t breathed oxygen also dies. Can’t live with it can’t live without it.

    Your body is essentially an oxidation reaction that it ponders its place in the universe.

    A slowly burning fire that pays taxes.

    Rust on the Myrtle Beach ferris wheel has also been shown to reduce fertility levels of crabs nearby, causing a dramatic drop in their population and California Bill 34 was passed to drastically limit how many can be caught, devastating the local fisheries!

    For more information, Google “Rust ferris crab rule 34”

    Seriously, though, when those blue-green fuckers came up with oxygenic photosynthesis and started shitting oxygen all over the place they killed practically everything else on the planet, the bastards. Paleontologists call it the Oxygen Catastrophe or Oxygen Holocaust.

        I’ve also heard that electrons in them cannot be relied upon - especially to be anywhere that they say they will (instead, they zip off to the other side of the whole galaxy/universe, then before you can tell anyone they’re gone, they are back again!) :-P.

    So I know it’s a joke, but isn’t this why dietary antioxidants are good for you, is because they literally help inhibit the oxidation of your body?
