The MANkind

Sometime back (been long, actually) a friend plagiarised (er.. sorry if you are reading this... let's say you were INSPIRED) a popular note on women , and wrote her version for my kind -

OLD ELEMENT IN THE PERIODIC TABLE
Element : MEN
Symbol : WO-
Atomic mass : Accepted as 65 kg; isotopes may vary from 40-200 kg
Occurrence : Copious quantities in all urban, rural and forest areas

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
1. White, brown or black
2. Adsorption, tremendous affinity to dirt and dust
3. Condensation, covered with a layer of sweat
4. Bad odour

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
1. Highly reactive with WO+
2. Hybridized state : Electrons always in excited state
3. Capacity to form Unlimited bonds with WO+
4. Does not allow bonding between own WO+ with other WO-
5. Breaks bond with WO+ with high frequency and looks for new WO+
6. High affinity for C2H5OH, alcohol. Shows Brownian movement under it's effect
7. Repelling effect with water

COMMON USES
None found till date

TESTS
1. Turns green when WO+ reacts with another WO-
2. Litmus test : Turns red to blue due to perspiration

POTENTIAL HAZARD
WO+ must always take precautions before WO- bonds, potential threat to mental and physical health. Highly Unstable, keep WO+s out of reach


This was my reply to her...
Just additions to what she wrote.. to give a different perspective

OLDEST ELEMENT IN THE PERIODIC TABLE
PREDATES ALL OTHER ELEMENTS, ACCEPTED NEGATIVITY TO HIGHLIGHT THE IMPERCEPTIBLE POSITIVITY IN WO+
Element : MEN
Symbol : WO-
Atomic mass : Accepted as 65 Kg; isotopes may vary from 40-500 kg (ref. WWE)
Occurrence : Copious quantities in all urban, rural and forest areas, basically wherever there are traces of WO+

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
1. White, brown or black (please make a note of the variety)
2. Adsorption, tremendous affinity to dirt and dust; characteristic of activity, as opposed to the gross inactivity typical of WO+
3. Condensation, covered with a layer of sweat as a result of the tremendous (sometimes inhumane) toils it undertakes for the sake of WO+
4. Bad odour, camouflaged with deodorants in the advanced members of the species

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
1. Highly reactive with WO+, react to stabilise WO+
2. Hybridized state : Electrons always in excited state, catalysed by WO+
3. Capacity to form Unlimited bonds with WO+; only if the scope of his WO+s interacting with each other is minimal
4. Does not allow bonding between own WO+ with other WO-, because more bonding between positive and negative ions can result in annihilation
5. Breaks bond with WO+ with high frequency and looks for new WO+, a process often precursored and initiated by WO+. Strangely WO+ regrets once the process is over, n blames it on WO-
6. High affinity for C2H5OH, alcohol. Shows Brownian movement under its effect; which is highly amusing for WO+, so accept it for the entertainment value
7. Repelling effect with water, excepting the water bodies inhabited by WO+

COMMON USES
None found till date, except that their unavailability would render (most specimens of) WO+ incapacitated of bonding

TESTS
1. Turns green when WO+ reacts with another WO- (ref. chemical properties of WO-, given above, for the underlying logic)
2. Litmus test : Turns red to blue due to perspiration (ref. physical properties of WO-, given above)

POTENTIAL HAZARD
WO+ must always take precautions before WO- bonds. Potential threat to mental and physical health, because being transported to higher levels can be dangerous for elementary samples of WO+. Once accustomed, the experience is similar to the attainment of nirvana.
Highly Unstable, keep WO+s out of reach. The instability is very superficial, though WO+s with a penchant for existentialism should better be kept out of reach.
