I'm gonna get a titanium spork for @scatman so he can ditch that creepy evil heavy spoon, and I'm gonna get myself some Dutch oven stuff so I can cook like him.

 

[Bob]

Get the titanium oven.... Then you can backpack with it

I've already replaced the heavy spoon with a titanium one (not a spork), but thanks for the offer. We need to head back to the headwaters of Alum Creek so that I can retrieve my original titanium spoon.

 

[Rockskipper]

I hope you disposed of the heavy spoon properly...

 

[scatman]

Nope @Rockskipper . It is still in the utensil drawer.

@scatman - just in case you didn't know:

Various adverse health hazards are known due to long term and continuous exposure to non-essential heavy metals. Since they are nondegradable and tend to bioaccumulate, suitable methods need to be established for their efficient removal from the environment.

Some objects made of heavy metals have been found to actually take on sentient characteristics and can thereby be even more dangerous. When dealing with such, it's imperative that the object be completely removed from all possibility of contact, as it may cause mental aberrations, for the electrons in heavy metals (defined as having an atomic number greater than 20) can assimilate to nearby bioforms.

Okay, okay. I've removed the heavy metal spoon from the utensil drawer and stored it in a small rubber container in my workshop, then carefully placed a lead blanket around the container. Will that work?

 

[Rockskipper]

Don't forget the kryptonite.

 

[b.stark]

Probably best to fill the container with heavy water, to be on the safe side.

I'm thinking your argument has lost all validity due to the "non-essential" part. Everyone knows that Heavy Spoons are made of essential heavy metals.

the electrons in heavy metals (defined as having an atomic number greater than 20) can assimilate to nearby bioforms.

I'm also thinking that @scatman is immune, as he lost any ability to assimilate long ago.

then carefully placed a lead blanket around the container.

The real question here is why does Hugh have lead blankets just laying around his workshop. If he is/was worried about heavy metals lead ranks right up there.

Probably best to fill the container with heavy water, to be on the safe side.

 

[Rockskipper]

And don't forget heavy oxygen (O 18) - gee, who wudda thunk all that chemistry in college would've ever come so in handy?

Good point.

Definitely no assimilation here.

The lead blanket is to ward off any potential radiation.

He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

Maybe it's just me, but all water appears to be 'heavy' when you have to carry it.
They make 'lite' beer. I should just pack that instead.
