Unionized

[nielsbohron@lemmy.world]

See, but I'm a chemist, but I also believe in the power and importance of organized labor, so I still read that as unionized.

Plus, I think most chemists would say "neutral" or use protonated/deprotonated rather than un-ionized

Too legible; needs more Facebook emojis

Needs less quality

I think the reference is to "pipe union" adapters. Not sure the chemistry reference.

uni-ronically funny

Holy fucking shit. I almost was exposed to a swear word on the Internet by some asshole cunt. That bitch didn't know it's fucking illegal to swear on the Internet. Thank fucking god someone put a box over it so it's only heavily implied making me entirely safe from the scary-as-fuck word and distracted me from the area by circling the punchline that I would have never seen without it. I was about to shit a brick.

fuck

Also un-ionized as a hyphen (which you used when writing it) and unionized doesn't. Which is probably why you, and most chemists, would read it as unionized as well.

[nielsbohron@lemmy.world]

It does get legitimately used both ways. In a chemistry textbook, seeing it written as "unionized" is pretty common, and wiktionary says that the hyphenated form is predominantly used in contexts where it might be confused with "having a union" (which matches with my experience).

However, I still assert that it's just not a word chemists use that much as there are other, less ambiguous synonyms available.

[test_tickles@lemmy.world]

Yes comrade, clearly any pure blooded, land of freedom American, would know that un-ionized is not correct. It is instead union-ized... which is what happens when you cut onions.

At least they cens0r€d their username

My favorite was how German spies in WW2 were easily caught because they'd just show up in beachside towns out of nowhere (right off the u-boat) in suits and carrying briefcases stuffed with cash.

Another way to tell the difference is tasting them

It's a Linux joke though

I'm unsure if that's a filter, a capture of RF out, or just an OLED smartphone screen after a year of use.
