    My friends and I downloaded the Anarchists cookbook off of a BBS (we’re old as shit now) when we were kids. One of the things in there was how to make a smoke bomb, which sounded harmless enough but also contained chemical ingredients that we didn’t have access to.

    Then one of my buddies moved away and at his new school, they had a chemistry lab. His dumbass got ahold of these chemicals and made the bomb in class - except he fucked up a step and it started smoking immediately.

    It wasn’t just a little bit of smoke, it was a shit load. He said smoke started pouring out at a crazy rate. They ended up evacuating the school thinking the building had caught fire.

      I think that was potassium-permanganate and sugar. It was one of the saner recipes ( who really wants to blow their face off or smoke banana skins ) with somewhat easily available ingredients.

      It was legit. But the temperature window between melting the ingredients together and igniting it was very narrow. We did what your friend did, we made the smoke bomb and also set it off in one go.

      Your friend must’ve been in a while ton of shit.

        Lol that is the exact same thing that happened to him. He said he fucked up the temperature and ignited it.

        Somehow, he DIDN’T get in a ton of shit for it. The teachers and fire department didn’t figure out it was an intentional smoke bomb. So they never questioned him about it. He dodged a bullet for sure! That was pre-9/11 and Columbine, so I’m sure kids in a similar situation today would be absolutely fucked.

        My lab partner and I made the most reactive version of this we could and got it ripping hot before dropping in a gummy bear. Then we stood under the fume hood making lightsaber noises.

      This reminds me of something I did when I was a kid. I put together a Windows XP shortcut that would shutdown the computer on a delay and pop up a message that told you that you were infected along with how to cancel the shutdown command, if you were quick enough.

      Well, I was showing my friends in the computer lab and the teacher came up behind me and saw the message. He freaked out, I freaked out, so I didn’t get it canceled before the PC shutdown.

      All of the sudden I was in the principals office accused of uploading a worm to their network. Coincidentally, there were issues effecting their entire network and I was the easiest target.

      To this day I’m still furious at that teacher. Instead of listening to what I had to say and realizing it was a simple windows shortcut, he berated me and told me it WAS a virus because anything that shuts down a computer like that is.

      He could have taken a look and been impressed that someone at that age had the ingenuity to put it together, but instead assumed the worse and killed my passion for computers for many years after. I have half a mind to find his contact information and tell him that he was, in fact, wrong and what that did to kill my passion.

        I’ve noticed that most people are barely computer literate and don’t understand when you try to explain the difference between something like a shortcut and computer virus.

        I actually dodged a bullet like that myself once. I used SMTP to send an email with a spoofed “from” address and got accused of hacking into someone’s email account. I lucked out that I got to plead my case with someone who understood networking.

      Haha I remember the anarchists cookbook too, I also came across it on bbs’s as a kid. I was never interested in making anything though.

        Yeah smoke bombs were the only thing I recall that wouldn’t land you in jail.

    I replaced Molotov coctail with a fire cracker and it just didn’t come out right. 1/10 wouldn’t recommend.

      Firecrackers are too dry for the recipe. That’s why your revolution came out brittle and tastting like cardboard.

    We need an Actual Anarchist Cookbook, with a lot of vegan etc. recipes.

      Half the book is just how to gather ingredients that don’t have high fructose corn-syrup or some bs.

    Add some corn. That might help.

    But did you get high?

    (Most AC recipes are for rec drug use.)

    • nickiwest@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Apparently not.

      I had some friends in undergrad who tried several of the recipes, and they said it was a huge waste of time. (These guys were honors students in science majors, so I wouldn’t chalk it up to user error in all cases.)

    You’re supposed to go off script and build your own recipe with your own will that’s your issue.
