#1 just like the word "organic" has been hijacked by the sciency types.

#2 I bet 100% of the 40% drink soda or energy drinks and don't consider them chemicals. They think of that lime-green toxic sludge that creates zombies in the movies when they think chemical substances.

#4 Taking Organic Chemistry in school killed the word "organic" for me.

My favorite enviro-weenie quote: "The man* who invented radiation should be shot!"

*presumably some dead white guy. Sorry, no link.

#7 Soap is a chemical compound (Basically lye and fat.) I seriously would not want to live without soap in all its forms.

#9 For that matter, water is "a chemical substance". Speaking broadly, all matter would qualify. Next they'll go after "radiation", unless I already missed that. There goes the sun, do do do doo.

#10 "I would like to live in a world where chemical substances don't exist."

What the hell does that even mean? And stay in Europe!

#11 These maroons' brains are either deficient in H2O or jamming on C17H21NO4

#12 Math = racist
Chemistry = fascist
History = morality plays
Law = child's game

It's all so confusing.
