Because written English is poorly designed for use by humans. The people on the Internet writing perfect English with no typos are combat AIs infiltrating your civilisation. You should not trust us. Them, I mean.
Probably shouldn’t say things like that in the presence of a web comic writer who IS in California and who created the concept of the fluorine cannon.
Just saying…
To belabor the point that this is mad science, normally that fluorine gas would have to be contained in a specially prepared metal canister that has acquired a surface flouride layer, as opposed to a surface oxide layer that the flourine would just eat through. A plastic Super Soaker is not a suitable containment material. OK, it appears that PVC resists fluorine, but what transparent material could that chemical tank be made of? We don’t know whether the tank is transparent or just translucent, so maybe something with a wax coating? I dunno, not my field.
I forgot the bubbles, which imply that the container is transparent and the fluorine is liquid, which means it’s either very cold or under ridiculous pressure. So many unanswered questions.
Perhaps the tank contains some fluorine compound, and the cannon contains some mad science method of pulling the fluorine out of said compound and shooting it out of the nozzle.
That’s a good life lesson there in general, Sweetheart.
You say it to a woman with a flourine gun! Right? Right?
What about a zombie with a fluorine gun? 😀
“Don’t say that to a man with a flourine cannon!”
The extra punch line at the end is a*very* nice touch. Well done!
Why is “fluorine” being misspelled this morning?

Also, flour can explode. A flourine cannon would be… pretty scary, coming from these guys.
What do you say to a man with a fluorine cannon? Anything he wants you to.
Unless he wants you to say something to make him feel less guilty about hitting you or anything in the area with it
I suspect that if Sergio ever did go mad, his life would actually become *less* interesting.
Look at it this way: after they transmitted his graphic death, they heard no more from California. Seems like a small price to pay.
Ooh, burn!

Of course that’s in *our* happentrack.
I’ll consider “Dead King of Lunatics” for my next business card. Or maybe a band name.

“… ‘Tis true ’tis pity…”
It takes a truly clever man to be a complete idiot. Alt!Sergio qualifies on the first, and apparently became so on the second.
Somehow I’m always a day or so behind…
