Especially with acid! You know, since rubber and silicon is inert.

Latex rubber is absolutely not inert and that's what most washing up gloves are made of.

Good thing I didn't say latex!

Latex IS rubber. Natural rubber IS latex.

Shhh, you're the first.

Having fun trolling a bit to see who is paying attention. The amount of upvotes is scary. As is the amount of downvotes for "it's not inert"

I hope you have a better day and not whatever it is that makes you talk the way you do.

Both your comments in this thread have been defensive when called out that your input was not as clever as you may have thought it would be, and then you've tried to double down further. Take care.

My day was pretty good. Usual stuff, no drama, one of those "just glide on through" type of days.

Side note: it's more clever than credit has been given for. One person caught it.

Side note to side note: I truly hope you had a fantastic day too! Take care stranger.

no you did not intend to say silicon instead of silicone and you weren't trying to "see who's paying attention".

i am not saying this to make you feel bad, i am saying it because i care and friends that get too lost in trying to impress people online have usually had something going on.

we are buried in the thread several comments deep on a day old post and nobody will really see this. i genuinely am just reaching out to you randomly because i recognised a pattern.

it's just comments on the internet friend. again, i just wanted to say that i see you and that i hope things stay well for you. take care.

I absolutely meant silicon dip shit. Find the one comment I awarded and it will make sense. You would like to think you're superior and understand the world around.

I have no one to impress, especially on reddit. It's fun to troll time to time in an interactive way, that's not just rage baiting and to engage those who really want to chat. You clearly are superior in a latex is better than silicon, and too good to be silicone, kind of way. So enjoy your wonderful superiority in such a way that only you get. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy my side chats with "small brains" who knew I didn't mean what I said.

Oh, side note. Continue having a shitty day and may you not accidentally fall off a bridge.
