What do you think the PPE is for

rip dubna, miratum got you beat
I'm not sure why it bothers me that they didn't use the actual periodic table and replace one element for the joke. Instead it's all jumbled and misnumbered.
- It looks pretty much right to me. Though hydrogen is sitting on top of fluorine for some reason and there appears to be a box in hydrogen's normal spot, but maybe it's to emphasize the chemical similarities between hydrogen and that column as well as the column it's usually shown in. The numbers are hard to read and I didn't look anything up to verify, but they look correct from what I can see, if a bit less clear than most for how the actinium and lanthanum series fit in.
  
  Oh yeah I see what you mean, like they cut the noble gases out of the shot, moved hydrogen to the right, and just left a blank box for where hydrogen should be? A lot of the text is to hard to read the atomic weights or anything, but I'm sure that would be nit picky haha
- I can't tell the numbers, but La and Ac being in the main table threw me off, had me suspecting everything was wrong
  
  Well I couldn't see 1, so my brain went to where 2 should be, and saw Hydrogen, which told me shit was fucked. Ain't nothing noble about no Hydrogen. That change alone would make water near impossible to exist and all life on earth to have never occurred.
- Well it seems lazy. And I think elements of accurate realness in contrast to the twist in a cartoon make it funnier.
- Maybe an ordered table can’t have the element of surprise.
Why is it denoted by a smiley face, rather than „Ah“?
Isn't Polonium the element of surprise?
- i thought it was lead. all you gotta do is leave your uranium laying around too long and oopsie poopsie lead
OMy
