You can get something like an old dentist chair and put it in your living room.
This is great.
Damn it.
What looks cooler than a periodic table?
Or a flask?
Or a Petri dish?
Or a beaker?
[glass shattering]
How many beakers are there even?
[glass shattering]
I didn't actually fall or break anything.
I just walked into that room, and I saw one of those big metal shelves just fall over into another one, and it was like a domino effect, 'cause then it hit into another one and another one and another one.
That's science.
Great, so I'm gonna take one of these beakers.
How much is it?
It's $400.
