EDIT: since apparently a bunch of people woke up with the wrong foot this morning or forgot to check the group they’re in:

This is a joke. Do not steal or vandalize speed enforcement cameras (or anything else for that matter). That’s against the law and you will likely get arrested.

If you’re addicted to crack or any other drugs, please seek professional help.

    Semi-related: Only small amounts of copper are typically stored in the human body, and the average adult has a total body content of 50–120 mg copper. Most copper is excreted in bile, and a small amount is excreted in urine.

      Water: 35 liters, Carbon: 20 kg, Ammonia: 4 liters, Lime:1.5 kg, Phosphrus: 800 g, salt: 250g, saltpeter:100g, Sulfer: 80g, Fluorine: 7.5 g, iron: 5.6 g, Silicon: 3g, and 15 other elements in small quantities… thats the total chemical makeup of the average adult body. Modern science knows all of this, but there has never been a single example of succesful human trasmutation.

        These are the Things that Make a Man
        
        Iron enough to make a nail,
        Lime enough to paint a wall,
        Water enough to drown a dog,
        Sulphur enough to stop the fleas,
        Potash enough to wash a shirt,
        Gold enough to buy a bean,
        Silver enough to coat a pin,
        Lead enough to ballast a bird,
        Phosphor enough to light the town,
        Poison enough to kill a cow,
        
        Strength enough to build a home,
        Time enough to hold a child,
        Love enough to break a heart.
