Random Thoughts XXXIII

[Behr]

I wonder why Behr and Volly were postin' 'bout the FF Gruden thread content in the Behr foodie thread and not here...

My smartass answer is, she was involved in that conversation in the Gruden thread. I brought it up there for anyone to respond to and no one did. I didn't want to make a big deal about it so I took it to the ask Behr thread because I knew she would see it there.

Honest answer is, you weren't around and I didn't know how to contact you to see where you wanted me to post my question.

Tin doesn't rust, Slice.

The B52s song "love shack" clearly says " tin roof rusted". So clearly you are wrong.

Now I've got that song stuck in my head. Thanks

They're just songsters from Georgia, Slice. I am Tin Man.

FYI: Tin doesn't rust. Rust is another name for a compound known as iron oxide. Iron, water and oxygen need to react together for rust to be produced. Because tin doesn't contain iron, it cannot rust.

Besides, that roof wasn't made of tin (too expensive). It was galvanized steel.

Nope. The song clearly says tin roof.
I've also seen the wizard of oz. the Tim man gets rusty.

This documentary proves everything the VN poster “Tin Man” said was wrong.


Also, jet fuel can’t melt steel beams.

 

[Tin Man]

Y'all be trippin'. Rust is iron oxide. Tin may oxidize, but it doesn't rust. Citing a bunch of '80s band mates as an authority on roofing materials is indefensible. Clearly, they misidentified galvanized steel roofing as tin.

 

[Tin Man]

In the Wizard of Oz, the Tin Man's joints froze when exposed to moisture. They did not rust (become iron oxide). Indeed, this is an opportune lead in for a discussion of "rust" in the common vernacular. Often, it is misapplied to indicate other than iron oxide. More often than not, "rusted shut" indicates that a movable part does not easily move as expected or designed. It does not indicate that iron oxide is the culprit in all or even most instances.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Whatever you say iron dude.

Hey tin, quit trying to use facts and logic. Those are no good here in the zone

 

[Orangeslice13]

It sounds as if iron dude may have some lead poisoning from his rusty tin suit.

 

[The Ron Mexico]

In the aforementioned documentary, rust is specifically mentioned with regard to the Tin Man. Not just some tightness from lack of movement.

Nope.
Shingles's are going away with in the next 10 years.
Their manufacturing is horrible for the environment.
Steel roofs are the future.

I’ll have to look into that, I don’t know anything about it.
