Our readership does not include any chemists (sorry Mark, your bathtub crystal meth operation doesn't qualify you) so you likely don't have the periodic table memorized, making the joke hard to discern.
Still don't get it? Here's a Muppets-style cartoon mashup (featuring NSFW lyrics) to jog your memory.
"Tattoo on tittie sayin' B.I.G." gets me every time.

Mo' money, mo' problems.
that was a ballpunch of a loss for the bruins
That's the clip I would've chosen as well
zman and/or Mark - what do you know/think of Atmosphere? and this dude Slug? been listening to some of that yesterday and today
Jason Reid's Washington Post article about John Wall's tattoos is one of the more asinine things I've read in awhile.

Atmosphere is one of my favorite indie rap acts. Slug's dope. A little emo at times but he pulls it off. I've seen Atmosphere live 4 times and its always a good show. I believe Rob has listened to a little Slug due to his collaborations with Murs, Felt: A tribute to Christina Ricci and Felt 2: A tribute to Lisa Bonet.
Favorite Atmosphere album: God Loves Ugly
Read that article on Wall last night. Powerfully stupid.
And I've moved the meth operation to a shed in the backyard, thank you very much. Expansion!
I can't belive we've never used the "dropping science like Galileo dropped the orange" tag before.
well, now we have
One more thing on Atmosphere. Rob should try and see them live during his frequent travels to Minneapolis. They're from there and play live locally on a regular basis.
The Stones knocked my socks off. I haven't seen much better, and I've seen a fair bit.
Also, the Avetts announced some more tour dates. Opening act for part of them? Trombone Shorty. Whoa.
As a kid I never realized that the Baroness was stacked, an evil Daisy Duke if you will. Thank goodness for yootoob.
Nice Whitney.
I think it's great that a group of 69 year old men can still rock harder than most any other group on the planet.
And I wouldn't have thought Trombone Shorty and the Avetts shared many fans, until recently.
They picked up where your precious Echo left off.
A Cosby swettah, a COSBY ssssswettAHHH!
I know this will shock all of you but apparently Chris Berman is a terrible commencement speaker.
Funny that those two comments appeared in a row because Bill Cosby was the commencement speaker at my graduation.
...and also not shockingly, the Cos was really enjoyable.
I saw Berms as a keynote lunch speaker at a work conference a few years ago. He gave a decent talk, reviewing the early days of ESPN. But he closed out his speech very poorly, abruptly transitioning into reciting his favorite baseball nicknames (the ones that he himself created years ago).
The Bert Blyleven joke didn't go over well in a mixed rowd, even when he explained in detail how he came up with the jokes. Awk-ward.
I have many bad things to say about W&M but when it comes to getting commencement speakers they really bring it. I recall Cosby, GHW Bush, Scalia, George Will, Mags Thatcher, Sandy Baby O'Connor before during and after my time in the Burg. Mostly Federalist Society types but impressive nonetheless.
Don't forget Jon Stewart, née Leibowitz!
Pretty sure we had a dud our year. It's all a hungover blur though.
I friend of mine had Dikembe Mutombo as his commencement speaker. No word on if he asked anyone to sex him during the speech.
Like Jerry, I have no clue who my commencement speaker was. Wouldn't have mattered. I had headphones on and was listening to Stankonia.
Was he graduating from Pete Newell's Big Man Camp?
I almost certainly had some Stankonia wafting around my general vicinity.
bob gates was mine. and clarence's first.
Bon Gates took Clarence's virginity?
Some boring donk who wrote a Thomas Jefferson biography was my graduation speaker. After puking in the parking lot per-commencement I really don't remember much else. But hey, at least it wasn't 95 with 90 percent humidity...oh wait...
i just heard a kid at ian's piano recital sing that element song. very impressive, but singing about chemistry is never going to help you score chicks (unless it's part of the rock'n'roll triumvirate).
SUNY Cortland, Jerry.
summer dave was working in a post, until he got too inebriated. first night of summer . . .
Alright, Rootsy's confession time: A bass player I know invited me jam with him and a couple other guys tonight. I wasn't sure what to expect, but what I got was a grueling session of dad rock. I feel gross.
what constitutes dad rock? counting crows? train?
Wilco and the Naional, definitionally.
Bethanie Mattek-Sands is stretching the limits of Wimbledon's dress code.
Rob, you did NOT have Bob Gates as your commencement speaker. You are nerdy enough not to get that wrong.
Shit, I don't even know what most of it was, other than being dad rock. I know some of it was one guy's tune sketches, each one sounding like the last. I'm going to take some Robert Pete Williams and try and sleep it off.

Love it when you get through airport security and realize phone is in car. Made it though. Tsa improved their stock in my eyes....when I showed my boarding pass again which was already sharpie'd I explained that I had to go back to car for phone....he said "yup, I was expecting you".
