I wonder where the hatred for aluminum comes from?
Crumpus
Because it's a fucking garbage metal, and iron is so much fucking better than it is that you might as well not even say shit about aluminum
EvilKam
It's 4chan, it's not supposed to make any sense... ever.
Heyarentyouthatguy
Cadmium or GTFO

Also, fuck titanum, calcum, sodum, potassum, magnesum and especially helum! I do love platinium though.

Cobalt. Especially when encasing some plutonium or uranium. Source: Humanity is a terrible plague.

Walking home today some fucker bumped into me and instantly started talking shit about Paladins being the best class. I tried to (1/?)
remain calm and explain to him that Warriors were actually the best class but he wouldn't take a hint. Started throwing around (2/?)
words like "Rage starved" and I lost it. Punched him right in his Paladin-loving fuck face. I hate Paladins so god damn much. (3/3)

Titanium or gtfo.
thatwoodguy
Fuck you both. Titanium is best.
midsongnipplerub
You motherfuckers ever even heard of magnesium?
Hydrogen is the best metal.
AmArschdieRaeuber
Hydrogen behaves like metal under extremly high pressure, like in the center of big planets or stars
It is a metal by definition, no wonder it behaves like one when solid. It just isn't solid anywhere else, though.
No there is a difference between metallic hydrogen and solid hydrogen. Also hydrogen is not an alkali metal (or a metal at all).

Bro, get that weak shit out of here, aint got nothing on enchanted uru metal
Buck39

Actually, diamond is the best metal.
Diamond is not a metal.

I learnt recently that 'aluminum' is the original name. It was renamed 'aluminium' in the UK to make it match the others,

Steel is just iron with a whole bunch of carbs
Technically Steel is an alloy.
You can put aluminium into steel, too.
Technically, I hate you.

Real question. Why the different spelling/pronunciation? I mean color/colour are still spelled the same.
alticaarden
Because we like to be different
UrsoKronsage
It was changed in Great Britain from aluminum to aluminium later to sound more scientific. Like sodium, potassium, and magnesium.
FinolaWren
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium#Etymology different endings to fit naming systems it seems, and usage by most popular writers.

I watch too much top gear and I'm American I say aluminium
CheeseBelongsInTheKitten
I like to tease my american friend by saying titanum, gallum, etc.
ThatOtherTransGirl
That's interesting, because most American English removes letters from British English. Why did we add an "I"? Curious.
Hungering
Lanthanum, platinum, molybdenum, tantalum.
MisterOp
It's because in the early 20th century when American advertisers wanted to sell some brand spankin new "aluminium cans," they found 1/2
that "aluminum" was easier to say, friendlier, and easier to remember. So, all the signs, boxes, and labels said aluminum. 2/3
From there, it caught on. 3/3

My British friend laughs at me when I say aluminum and I laugh at her when she says aluminium. We are easily amused.
