Is that what you're doing? Making electronics?

[spidermenaces]

Uh, that too. With metal, you can break some down, and then you can have uses in all sorts of things. Copper, you can use in agriculture as a pesticide.

[solitarysoul]

Um.

[He blinks.]

You use metal...to break down electronics? And make...pesticide? What's pesticide?

[Oh he's too stupid for this he shouldn't have asked.]

[spidermenaces]

(oh, that's hard.)

No, to-- uh, fix it. And pesticide kills pests, in agriculture and stuff. Uh, do you know what molecules are?

[solitarysoul]

Uh...no. Sorry.

[He should have just kept walking, he's just wasting this guy's time.]

[spidermenaces]

Ooookay, so, here is the deal. Everything is made from this tiny, tiny thing. Several different tiny things. And when they hold hands with other tiny things - not literally, figurately, they create other things, and that's everything, from the copper, to us. I can take away the hands or give more tiny things to hold hands with, and then you get another thing.

(he did not rehearse this.)

[solitarysoul]

Uh....okay.

[He clearly doesn't get it.]

And you're....l-looking for more?
