Exploring the Wonders of Liquid Nitrogen

[Mk]

Leidinfrost effect!

 

[brewnog]

I got a flask of liquid nitrogen from my mate's mum, who's a GP. Hours of fun smashing flowers, once I'd finished burning off my own wart!

I've also seen a guy drinking it (well, taking into his mouth before blowing it out) but I seem to remember there's a knack. Didn't dare try it.

What kind of flowers should I use?

Really, hours?

but only to people that hang with you. it's a two edged sword.

two edged sword? wtf am I talking about. After I type lines like that I always wonder what it means and if I really wrote it.

Every sword has two edges doesn't it? More than that too. I guess fencing swords (what are they called again?) are round right? So that either counts as one, or too many to count.

Only double edged swords have both edges sharpened so that they cut either way you swing them. These are battle weapons as opposed to fencing foils which are essentially for sport. Fencing foils are square in cross section. They can stab, but not cut. (Fencers put little protective guards over the tips when they fence so they don't actually injure anyone.) Anyway, a lot of styles of swords have only one edge sharpened
