I think I know Chem

Mugging quote for today:

"The best part of my Chemistry test is my handwriting." - Anonymous

And in case you haven't noticed by now, well uh, Anonymous is actually me. You couldn't really fault me for that quote, it might sound a bit egoistic but it's true. I go for style rather for substance. Or should I say I don't really have a choice.

I should. Because that's the truth. I can't make my handwriting worse nor can I make my Chemistry knowledge better. So as a result of this failure and extreme boredom, I decided to listen to retarded songs.

"I Think I Love You" by the Partridge Family in 1970 fully qualifies as one of them. It's so bloody retarded and cowardly that you'd have to really marvel at how idiotic some people can get. Seriously, even "My Humps" might make more sense than this.

..okay maybe not. Modern trash is not really music, as I've probably said many times before. It's noise. It's trash. It's nothing to do with Chemistry.

You can try this site, it's complete with lyrics and music and whatnot.
I think I love you

After you're done being hit with the realisation that this song makes no sense whatsoever and is just someone in self-denial that he likes someone else (which seems vaguely familiar, I know not why), you sing the Chemistry version, which is basically good for a clueless person like me who is in self-denial that he is good in Chemistry. Presenting to you, "I Think I Know Chem", sung by Chemistry failures of the modern era, 2006.

I Think I Know Chem
(Dedicated to all those around the world who failed Chem, and better yet have a U.)

I'm mugging, and right in the middle of those alkenes
Then all at once I screw up, by using hydrogen to dehydrate
I am going insane, these Chem tutorials that I hate
Iodoform and zinc sulphate, Br2 in liquid state
“I THINK I KNOW CHEM” (I think I know Chem!)


This morning, I tried some oxidising;
I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it

Take those alcohols and screw it;
I would just loudly proclaim“I THINK I KNOW CHEM”
(I think I know Chem!)

I think I know Chem, so what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of, reactions for the phenol
I think I know Chem, isn't that what life is made of?
Doesn’t worry me to say, Top Twenty’s coming my way

I don't know what I'm reducing,
I don't know what Chem’s all about
I've got so much to think about

Hey! I think I know Chem! So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of, reactions for the phenol
I think I know Chem, isn't that what life is made of?
Doesn’t worry me to say, Top Twenty’s coming my way

Believe me, you really don't have to worry
My tutorials might be scrappy, but stuff like Tollens’ Reagent I know
KMnO4 with O, the reaction’s really slow
Do you think I have a case, let me ask you to your face
Can I get Top Twenty?

“I THINK I KNOW CHEM” (I think I know Chem!) – x3

I love Chemistry. It gets much <3 from me.
