I just learned about "Salt (NaCl) is actually a combination of a highly poisonous gas (Cl) and a hazardous metal (Na)".

I'm sure there are lots of examples in life that this rule also applies to.

Grapefruit fucks with a lot of medications (if you regularly eat grapefruit, check to make sure none of your medications are affected by it). The effects can range from nullifying the medication, to increasing the effects (potentially fatally), or causing the medication to become toxic (also potentially fatally).

Wrinkly, wet fingers (after a nice long shower) grabbing soft, dry, fluffy blankets. Eeeeuuuuggggghhhhjjjjj. God, it hurts just thinking about it.

You think wrinkly fingers are good on their own?

No, but they're a result of taking a nice, long shower, bath or swim.
