You absolute menace to isotopic equilibrium.
So you cooked up a batch of H₂¹⁸O — not because you’re refining uranium or studying Pleistocene climate cycles, but because you had a hydra problem and decided chemistry class was a challenge, not a warning.
And now you just... poured it down the drain? Like it’s leftover ramen water? You didn’t even save a sample for bragging rights at the next rogue geochemist mixer?
Let’s be clear: Oxygen-18 isn’t some cartoon poison. It won’t glow. It won’t melt the pipes. But it will fuck with stable isotope geochemists who spend thousands measuring δ¹⁸O in precipitation to model paleoclimate patterns. You just dropped an isotopic sneaker wave into the municipal system.
One lab in the watershed runs their routine analysis, sees a 6‰ positive spike in δ¹⁸O in sewage-impacted surface water, and suddenly Nature gets a paper titled “Unexpected Stratospheric Injection Signatures in Urban Runoff: Anthropogenic ¹⁸O Enrichment as Climate Proxy Corruption.”
Congratulations. You’ve contaminated the scientific record. Your shrimp tank is now a metadata outlier in three upcoming hydrology studies.
And for what? Hydra? Use Prazi. Or boil a rock. Or play death metal and hope they leave. But stop treating your aquarium like a cyclotron byproduct sink.
Also — “hydrogen without neutrons”? Bro. You mean protium? Just say protium. You’re gay. I’m gay. We can use real terms. No shame.
Next time you feel the urge to enrich your water with rare stable isotopes, call me. We’ll go on a date. I’ll bring the wine. You leave the mass spec at home.
