Chemical dance party!

One of the greatest (and geekiest) things I have ever seen.

(Found in the comments of today's Fandom Secrets, which included an awesome chemistry geek secret.)

OMG, this is amazing, and even more amazing that it was sponsored by, what I gather, is some kind of EU instrument. Can you imagine the US government (or something funded by it) producing something this funny? Can you imagine the clot Fox News would through about carbon being a gay black man?

Of course, I'm the type of geek who, upon seeing the print ads http://www.tvfanatic.com/gallery/breaking-bad-photo/ for the new season of Breaking Bad (which I don't watch) thought, "Oh, bromine and barium; that's funny."

The census ads aren't bad (and have a great cast), but I agree, this is much funnier. And you're right, the aneurysm Fox News would have about Carbon/Hydrogen would be epic.

Breaking Bad carries those chemistry visuals through its credits -- all the actors have an element pulled out of their names. It's a terrific show, by the way, though it definitely has its grimmer moments.
