      “demon-cussy” is by far the most cursed thing I’ve read all day… but it’s still early.

      While attempting to stack another brick around the assembly, Daghlian accidentally dropped it onto the core and thereby caused the core to go well into supercriticality, a self-sustaining critical chain reaction. He quickly moved the brick off the assembly, but received a fatal dose of radiation. He died 25 days later from acute [radiation poisoning].

      Holy shit and I’m still scared to drop shit into a pot of oil

          If you know of a better way to make the freshest fried shit-on-a-stick, the entire industry is all ears.

          Mainly due to severe oil burns, but the execs are sensitive, so we don’t bring it up around them.

            I solved the first part of the problem by sticking a stick up execs assess, now I just need to figure out the oil logistics, … and also why got a promotion.

      That wiki entry was a wild ride. It should be required reading in school.

      Fermi: You’ll be dead in a year if you keep doing it like that.

      Feynman: You’re tickling the tail of a sleeping dragon.

      Slotin, in blue jeans and cowboy hat: Look, ma, no shims!

    Omg I was afraid this meme format was dead, so glad it’s undead!

    And it’s not even a low-effort one, nicely done.
