Periodic table regions (xkcd) #chemistry

From explainxkcd - "The periodic table is used to arrange chemical elements based on their properties. This comic groups them together into regions with labels humorously reflecting their properties, characteristics, or uses."

Labels include:

SLIGHTLY FANCY PROTONS

WEIRD DIRT

REGULAR DIRT

ENDS IN A NUMBER, LET IT SLUMBER ENDS IN A LETTER, NOT MUCH BETTER

BORON (FOOL'S CARBON)

YOU ARE HERE

LAWFUL - NEUTRAL

SAFETY GOGGLES REQUIRED

VERY SPECIFIC HEALTH PROBLEMS

REGULAR METALS

BORING ALLOY METALS PROBABLY CRUCIAL TO THE SPARK PLUG INDUSTRY OR SOMETHING (BUT ONE OF THEM IS RADIOACTIVE SO STAY ON YOUR TOES)

DON'T BOTHER LEARNING THEIR NAMES -THEY'RE NOT STAYING LONG

WHOEVER FIGURES OUT A BETTER WAY TO FIT THESE UP THERE GETS THE NEXT NOBEL PRIZE
