Biochemistry gone awfully wrong.

Or: What happens to me after dealing with too much O-Chem and talking to someone who can actually understand what I'm talking about.

·DysTuvai· alkali metals have very short fuses. XP
·DysTuvai· but at the same time they really want to help themselves. they just need to find who to dump all their pesky negativity on XD

[100]«baratron» i'm trying to take information from 4 or 5 sources without plagiarising and it's SO DAMN DIFFICULT
[100]«baratron» because a lot of the time they use the exact wording that i would
[100]«baratron» i mean, how else do you say "the nonpolar, hydrophobic residues get buried in the centre of the protein"?
·DysTuvai· "Danged things scared o' water, wrapped up so tight you could think they're into bondage in the middle of 'em proteins. Yeehaw!"
·DysTuvai· ... It'd probably get accepted in Texas.

* baratron wonders vaguely why haemoglobin is abbreviated to _Hb_
[100]«baratron» obviously, mercury is Hg so they couldn't use that... except symbols are reused all over the place
[100]«baratron» like Ar (argon) and A subscript r (relative atomic mass)
·DysTuvai· And Ar (pirates)
[100]«baratron» and EA (activation energy) and EA (evil software company who like spyware)
·DysTuvai· ... XD
·DysTuvai· Calculate the amount of energy needed to activate their spyware?
·DysTuvai· but since hemoglobin is vaaaaaaaaaguely spherical.
·DysTuvai· VERY vaguely
·DysTuvai· i can only assume the b stands for ball?>
·DysTuvai· XD
·DysTuvai· or maybe Blood.
·DysTuvai· or maybe the writers were dyslexic
·DysTuvai· "We totally wanted to call it Haemoblogin... but then we'd wonder what would the Emo be Blogin' about."
