Does DMT dissolve in DMSO?

I imagine it was intentional, good sir. He was performing what is colloquially known as "a mario", where a person "one-ups" another.

I'm really glad this appeared in SMBC!

The procedure is actually "cryonics." "Cryogenics," as far as I can tell, is the whole practice of freezing and reviving living tissue as a whole, including just organs and things. The practice of freezing an entire person is "cryonics."

So sorry to be a big evil stickler about this!

We have come such a long way from the guillotine, now the only countries that kill its citizens pump their veins full of poison or crush them with stones.

And those people who have their heads cut off by the guillotine? Not dead until they stop blinking.

That one wasn't as popular as some of Nirvana's other songs.

Hey, loads of parts of coma patients still work.

Like their kidneys. The dead don't even have that.

Erm, Zach, I think you may be confusing "dead" for "too damaged to sustain life without external support until repaired by external forces." If we went by the definition of "dead" implied by this comic, comatose patients on life support would be "dead."
