Sodium hydrochlorite on black denim~

If you want to go stronger than that, you could use lye.

Tried to blow my nose. It failed and I squirted what appeared to be water out of my fucking eye.

What the hell just happened?
Your tear ducts are connected to the back of your nose. People actually do what you did accidentally on purpose as a trick. The horned lizard shoots blood out of a similar duct to blind predators.

That may be so, but I can actually touch the bleach~

Come on, nothing's wrong with a little white lye.

Lye is one of the strongest commonly-available bases out there. The reason bleach bleaches pants is because it's a strong base. 2+2, man.

2+2=5

I'll never understand why it can't just use venom/water instead of its vital internal fluids.

I'm gonna guess
a) Its blood tastes nasty and animals already have a source of blood (vessels) around the eyes so it's not as big a stretch to evolve
b) Why would you want venom in your eyes D:
c) As for water, if I were a predator I'd probably find it more amusing than threatening if something was projectile-crying at me before I eat it

For what it's worth a bunch of animals do similar things. Ladybugs ooze toxic bugblood out of their leg joints when you freak them out.

Well the lizard would probably evolve immunity to its own venom. If there's a coyote or something chasing it, splashing water on it might slow down for a few seconds. I think have blood that tastes horrible would make most sense.

A makes the most sense to me  :)

More than likely the blood itself is a distraction. Probably helps throw the scent off.

But now ein's fish will be lye-less! She will be washing and soaking it in water for three weeks for no reason at all! In vain! It makes no sense!

...Also it will rot!

So apparently an 800 on the SAT Math II subject test is an 88th percentile, and a 750 is a 76th percentile on the Physics test.

Edit: It's a 200-800 scale

I touched my watch to a cubicle partition, I felt a shock and my watch beeped.  Next I looked at it the time was way off, it thought it was Sunday (it's Friday), it had set my alarm that I use to wake up every morning to a little more than half past already late for work, and the date was January first. 

And now, even after setting everything back to the proper times and dates it beeps every hour.  The little paper that came with the watch mentions no such functionality, nor how to turn it off if it did.

My watch has been possessed by the ghost of the cubicle.

Is this the same mom that believes in psychics and tried to get you to do so too? Or am I remembering the story wrong?
