All solvents are gay. That includes water, the gayest of solvents.

This makes sense, every gay person I've met drank water.

It's like my science used to say in grade school, "100% of people who consume dihydrogen monoxide end up dead".

Water has quite a few side effects, the evidence is clear!

[–] mack7400@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Just like how 100% of people that conflate correlation & causation die.

[–] kzhe@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

I mean it was sarcasm

[–] Tja@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Phrasing is wrong. You have consumed water and are alive.

The correct phrasing could be something like "100% of people who died have consumed dihydrogen monoxide at some point in their lives".

[–] russjr08@bitforged.space 3 points 10 months ago

You have consumed water and are alive.

Bold assumption! Jokes aside, perhaps that was the phrasing that he used. Unfortunately it's been quite a while since I was in grade school.

[–] KingBoo@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

Water, the universally gay, solvent.

The H in H2O stands for homosexual, it’s true, look it up.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

If only it could dissolve the gay away.
