    Ohm sorry to be the voice of resistance here, but I don’t think this joke has much potential in its current state.

      I know someone with the surname “Ohm.” I asked him if he would marry me, but he objected that he was already married and I was (at the time) in a committed relationship.

        Don’t know why you got downvoted. That’s a neat and relevant anecdote.

          All good. I appreciate the honest feedback from whomever expressed their opinion. Hopefully I caused them no harm.

          Thank you also for the positive response!

    I have a bag of batteries that need to go to the tox drop, thanks for the reminder.

    I labeled them “BAD-tteries,” though. My daughter did not think this was very funny.

      If it elicits a groan, it’s peak dad humor.

            I was really hoping someone would say “Dead batteries” and I could do the whole, “I don’t know what I expected” bit.

                You didn’t. It was a calculated risk, and I am very bad at math.

    I was told you’re not supposed to dump your batteries into a bucket like that

      Just cover the terminals of any 9V battery so they don’t short.

      They should probably tape off the contacts to reduce the risk of forming a circuit, yeah.
