      While attempting to stack another brick around the assembly, Daghlian accidentally dropped it onto the core and thereby caused the core to go well into supercriticality, a self-sustaining critical chain reaction. He quickly moved the brick off the assembly, but received a fatal dose of radiation. He died 25 days later from acute [radiation poisoning].

      Holy shit and I’m still scared to drop shit into a pot of oil

          If you know of a better way to make the freshest fried shit-on-a-stick, the entire industry is all ears.

          Mainly due to severe oil burns, but the execs are sensitive, so we don’t bring it up around them.

            I solved the first part of the problem by sticking a stick up execs assess, now I just need to figure out the oil logistics, … and also why got a promotion.

      That wiki entry was a wild ride. It should be required reading in school.

      Fermi: You’ll be dead in a year if you keep doing it like that.

      Feynman: You’re tickling the tail of a sleeping dragon.

      Slotin, in blue jeans and cowboy hat: Look, ma, no shims!

    Omg I was afraid this meme format was dead, so glad it’s undead!

    And it’s not even a low-effort one, nicely done.
