Ack! Why is there no GSL for a good week? How am I going to survive my late nights, now? MY hands are like trembling from withdrawl symptoms! Furthermore, my favorite players (group D) won't be playing until the 9th of february! This wait is too brutal. The torture is too much!
DRG!!!!!!!!!! Genius!!!!!! T_T
What are you guys doing to stave off your addictions?
In the mean time, enjoy my best photoshop effort yet! Naniwa walking up the mountainside

Tell me about it haha, doesn't feel right starting off the day without the GSL on.
Finding myself getting down to some work at socially acceptable hours, what is this.
fortunately TL is still here to procrastinate on <3

Me? I'm revising for the exam I have in two days.
Turns out I have no idea what colour change an aldehyde goes through when exposed to acidified potassium dichromate solution.
:'(

I hope you don't have to actually memorize such nonsense as what color it is. A real chemist would just do a positive control test.
K2Cr2O7
awesome oxidizer that one is <333

It might be because the Lunar New Year celebrations are going on in most parts of Asia (might include South Korea) as well, so that's why the guys are GSL are taking a break from their regular scheduling.

I know right? How am I supposed to get my post count up in LRs when there's now GSL on all the time?
Sadly, my way of distraction is work and TL, which is what I did when GSL was on anyways!

I feel the same way, why is there no GSL this week
;(
Can't wait for Foxer's group.

:'( Possibly orange to green? Think we have the same exam good luck

Well, I have no idea what you just said, so I doubt I'm a real chemist. It is an oxidation reaction anyway, that much I know.

It's the dichromate that changes colour and oxidation state.

I am laddering and procrastinating laddering. That's how I have been surviving without gsl.
iirc potassium dichromate should be green when put with aldehydes, however if it's in acidic conditions it (dichromate) should be green anyway, so no color change.
And yes as somebody pointed out before it is the dichromate that changes color, not the hydrocarbon you are testing. Chromium is the one with the d orbitals and as we all know d orbitals make pretty colors

I am definitely not a real chemist.

If you do university chemistry, they tell you:
1) Everything you were taught in A-level at school is a lie 2) Real chemists don't use the scientific names, they use the old ones they told you were obsolete. 3) Your experiment won't work 30% of the time anyway, no big deal. 4) No, I have no idea why your solution went red and cloudy instead of green and clear but I'll mark it correct 5) We can't solve anything more complex than a hydrogen atom analytically, never mind a whole molecule. So here's some guidelines we got from observing only, and here's the laundry list of exceptions to those rules.

ARGH I need more DRG!!
I'm starting to feel like a stalker... lol
Is this....what true fandom is? you open his tweets and translate it via google translate and read outloud shit that makes no sense? sad panda

No, true fandom is when you do that for every SC2 pro you know... even HuK.

yea... translate Huk's english tweets to english or from english to korean and then back to english.... actually I've never tried that.... I wonder if the meaning will change!!

Nope, most of his tweets still means fuck all in any language ^_^
