100 Funniest Finds That'll Crack You Up In 2024

"it's safe"... Okay, so just for context, I am not someone who freaks out over radioactivity. I have had radiation safety training several times while working in a student lab that used several sealed sources for parts of student physics experiments that demonstrate some pretty interesting things. I am certainly not going to freak out over a little uraninite. That said, I wouldn't be so pat as yo call it "safe". This is a neutron source, which is bad news to begin with, and it's a pretty high emission one according to the tin, and it's fairly easy to unseal which immediately makes it much worse (first, most radiation sources become more dangerous if inside you and uranium has a whole chain of decay products before it gets to something actually stable) and also makes it a chemical hazard as well. All that said, if you know what you are doing and want to show people cool things about radiation and aren't going to be a dingdong with this, then go ahead and get it. But PLEASE don't gift.

Plymouth Rock. I’ve never been but it’s literally some random rock. And I’m pretty sure it’s not the actual one.

I grew up in Plymouth, and it’s just a rock and there is no actual one, they just threw a monument around a rock. That said it’s still a pretty nice coastal New England town with some museums and decent seafood.
