The most consequential update to the Periodic Table since its creation.

Pain must be relatively immediate to qualify for owe, my ass. Some of the yellow ones are insidious killers indeed.

Edit: I'm making the distinction that I'll make ones that cause relatively guaranteed death purple.

The assumption is that all elements are in solid form at STP and crumbly/unwieldly elements have a suitable binding agent. Or you know, determination I guess?

Would a 90%+ Tungsten alloy count? (See other reply for context)

Hey man. I think the rules are kind of flexible here. I'm not the dildo police.

Edit: Personally I'd say 'binding agent' could mean the most pure alloy you can make a dildo out of.

Yeah but if we want to be scientific about it, we need rigorous definitions.
