I'm like that in IM, too

This didn't happen in /clan, but it could have.

Researchers Build Dissolving Tech That Will Self-Destruct In Water, Reducing Waste
me:  I don't want my electronics to dissolve in water.

Otherguy:  Yah, don't sweat it, or your phone dissolves

Forget the old rice trick

me:  It's a truly stupid idea.  From truly stupid people.

Otherguy:  Of course, you could do this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wq0bha101AQ

But that would defeat the purpose

me:  I like that.  Why don't we coat our electronics?

Otherguy:  Chemicals?

me:  Chemicals schmemicals.  I want to be able to pee on my phone without ill effect.

Otherguy:  Pretty sure that'll never happen

me:  Dream big.
