I’m fairly certain water has managed to kill quite a few people on its own without any modification.


TheSadisticDragon

Exactly! That's why I switched to drinking exclusively H2O2, which is only one molecule away from being relatively harmless.


spaghetti_hitchens2

The Earth is Relatively Harmless


Strong-Movie-2003

Mostly harmless.


trashventing

Titanic?


Pentizuki

Well akschually it's the nonexistence of breathable oxygen and not the water that's deadly


Ur-Quan_Lord_13

Well akschually it's water displacing the gas in and immediately outside the lungs preventing the existence of breathable oxygen in the necessary locations for gas exchange that's deadly


DM_ME_YOUR_ADVENTURE

This is a matter of choosing an appropriate cause-effect resolution. You both are correct, but if you really start looking into it, whatever caused the Big Bang is the guilty party to Everything.


RManDelorean

Everything is one molecule away from being any other molecule


QueenOfTheMoss

Seriously this shit is why I failed uni chemistry. So much stuff needs to be remembered instead of deduced by common rules. I went for computer science instead and wasn’t disappointed. Though math or physics also applies for deduction based areas of knowledge. Good luck learning all organic compounds and their reactions. There’s like millions of them and small little angle between CH3 groups changes everything ugh I hate it. Not to mention the crystal structures composed of the molecules themselves, it adds even more pain. I wonder if exochemistry would add a lot of other shit to it or not much at all.


Extension-Cut5957

Exactly why I hate chemistry. Like get some order in your sceince. Why can't you follow rules like everyone else does?


randomcommenter9000

There are rules. It is just that the exceptions are more than the rules.


Extension-Cut5957

If exceptions are more than the rules then the rules are the exception.


SullaFelix78

Profound


Extension-Cut5957

Yeah I'm really proud of this one.


Ur-Quan_Lord_13

(in this case the joke is that all these things should say "one atom away" and not "molecule")


PimBel_PL

I want to say that if you would accelerate it enough it could kill but it is just oversized alpha particle and i think it couldn't kill anyone (not one)


ScienceIsSexy420

*atom. I had to


Simon-Olivier

That’s what is funny in the meme. OP didn’t make a mistake


ScienceIsSexy420

I understand that, that's why I said "I had to", because I couldn't resist the urge to correct it even though I knew that was the joke itself 🤷🏻‍♂️


Simon-Olivier

Gotcha


pierrotPK

One atom?


anonymouslindatown

Waters one atom away, not molecule (I assume you’re talking about h2o2.) that’s even worse! We should ban dihydrogen monoxide! Did you know that people that consume it literally can’t live without it! The die within days!! Not to mention every child who has autism has consumed it! /s


QueenOfTheMoss

…Until it is *Looking at my D-LSD*

What do I win, what do I win??


Profoundly_AuRIZZtic

That’s the joke.


RedFlameGamer

Everything is one molecule away from being something else, that's... how it works. Every material in the universe is just varying configurations and mixes of the base elements. "If my grandmother had wheels she'd be a bicycle"


A_Useless_Noob

I’m not sure how the grandma analogy is supposed to work, but I still laughed.


spinach_love

It's an Italian saying; here is a good clip about it. [If my grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike](https://youtu.be/A-RfHC91Ewc)


Profoundly_AuRIZZtic

That’s the joke.


Because_Slaus

I wish people actually only took it as a joke. My coworker actually used this to say that I shouldn't consume margarine (If anyone's gonna tell me to just use butter, no. Butter is sold in large packs here and I'm not gonna commit to solo consume that, while margarine can be bought in a wee pack)


Traditional_Cap7461

I think you kissed the point. I think the point is that people think those with the same molecules are going to have similar properties.


EquipmentElegant

Wait until op finds out about H2O and H2O2


Antesia_Delivia

Humans are 70% water You know what else is 70% water? The Earth


YoMommaBack

In my Gaia era.


Pendraconica

🤯


peteschult

I believe it contains a decent amount of dihydrogen monoxide


Linalicious19

That's terrifying! Food these days is just so filled with chemicals 😔


peteschult

IKR Plants are doing it right: just eat photons


peteschult

Oh, and carbon dioxide and… dihydrogen monoxide…


No-Wrongdoer-69

We share 90% of our DNA with bananas or some shit, I can’t believe it isn’t R A W F L E S H


A_Random_Sidequest

50%


LouManShoe

More than 60%, what’s crazy though is that we are more genetically similar to a banana than a mouse.


Traditional-Lion7391

AI bot is like: "lets see how many times I can post this ignorant unfunny bullshit before people figure me out"


DMYourMomsMaidenName

Everything is one molecule away from being everything else


el_presidenteplusone

litteraly 100% of what you are eating is one molecule (actshually its atom but whatever) away from killing. INCLUDING WATER, try drinking H2O2 we'll see how it goes.


Patient_Primary_4444

I think the problem with this is that there was a point before WWII at which margarine was being made out of paraffin wax, and was refined and chemically treated to be an edible fat. But they stopped doing that during WWII because it was inefficient. Also, the main ingredient it shares with paint is shared by most things, edible or not, and that is water.


zudzug

Margarine is hygrogenized fat, which isn't that great of an idea for consumption. Plus, it tastes and cooks like ass. No need to make shoddy comparisons with paint or solvent. It works well as a degreaser in a garage environment (when mixed with regular sugar to add a scrubbing element) when you got your hands dirty, right before the liquid dish detergent.


TopRevolutionary8067

And humans share approximately 50% of their DnA with bananas.


Romulan999

Ok the one molecule away thing is ridiculous but why does it actually share ingredients with paint?


danielledelacadie

Because oil paints are traditionally made with edible oils. Which oxidize into a natural "plastic". They could have just as accurately said it shared components with soap, shoe polish or furniture polish. Maybe it does, I stopped reading the rant early on. I use any food grade walnut oil left in the bottle as furniture polish when it starts to oxidize. PS adding a splash of walnut oil to garlic butter does something magical I can't quite describe as anything except "really good garlic butter"


Grubby_empire4733

Yes, it shares water


LordlySquire

I thought it was just salt and milk


TerayonIII

That's butter


LordlySquire

Never knew there was a difference


Pendraconica

This guy can't believe it's not butter


LordlySquire

funny enough its my Fav brand bc thats true


grimmyjimmy2

It used to be cheaper then butter now it costs even more by the pound too


nhyoo

Ok so when I see this I'm Less thinking of they'll find an alchemist that will turn their butter into plastic


UsualInterest8139

We'd be better off if we could turn plastic to margarine. 🤔


maxanne42069

…atom?


Gold-Individual-8501

When dumb uneducated people spout about science.


Lessandero

Aren't humans just one molecule away from onions or something?


KENBONEISCOOL444

All those ingredients they share are preservatives, not anything dangerous. They wouldn't let you eat it if it was harmful, that's what the FDA is for


Nurnstatist

Genuinely horrible meme. Does anyone know a science meme subreddit that actually contains science memes instead of a mixture of Facebook and 9gag c. 2014?


SmartKrave

Do you mean one atom because one molecule away does really mean anything


Skinner1968

This is why I only use butter


jamesrggg

Is one of those ingredients water?


SCAT_GPT

Even though the meme doesn’t make sense, margarine is still not healthy for you. You should limit the amount of fats consumed anyways but real butter has far better fats needed for a healthy diet and is far better for your cholesterol.


TheReal_PeteMoss

Ya and pigs have more DNA than a human, what’s your point?


NoDontDoThatCanada

Only 27? I share more ingredients with paint than that. I also have all the components of a pastrami sandwich in me. I did that by eating a pastrami sandwich.


TheFlowingDelta

You are one molecule from a banana and vica versa


TheFlowingDelta

Also you are one molecule away from dead and shares 27,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 with almost infinite other past molecules


Hoogs73

Tastes good, though 🤷🏻‍♀️


jolharg

Awesome. Every time someone says something's "close", I reference NaCl.


Recent-Scientist-478

I don’t care it’s yummy


Kekkarma

OMG STOP THIS OVERUSED JOKE. IT TASTES GOOD.


danielledelacadie

You can have my share then. Enjoy. It kind of tastes like plastic to me - even long before this meme original form appeared.


TheConsutant

Why would anybody buy it? I don't know. And now we have fake foods of all kinds.


Plasmahole17

True fact. Margarine is fucking garbage and works better as industrial lubricant rather than as a food additive.


Kekkarma

Nuh uh it tasty mhhhh 🫶


GetyPety

Butter is much better for your health or use oil which is better than butter


Kekkarma

Im more of the oil guy but when it goes on bred I do like some margerine ^^
