hot topic metal

Bands who sell merch at Hot Topic and pander to bandwhore teenage girls. They are cliche "pop punk" or "post hardcore" by title. They all sound alike and their fans like them for the sake of band fandom, hence why their fanbases are all like "omg bandz omg lelelele so coot"
All Time Low , Pierce the Veil , Sleeping with Sirens , Forever the Sickest Kids , all that SHIT. Hot topic metal

Alkaline Earth Metal

Any element of the periodic table which is in group 2.
In order of proton number, Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium and Radium are all Alkaline Earth Metals.

They are characterized by all having 2 outer-shell electrons (two electrons in their valence shell), alas their placing in group 2 of the periodic table.

They are all silver coloured, soft metals which react readily to form ionic compounds.

The name 'Alkaline Earth Metals' is derived from the fact that the oxides formed by the elements in this group produce basic Alkaline solutions, and the melting points are such that the elements remain solid (Earths) in fires. Alkaline Earth refers to the oxides themselves.

x + 2H2O --> x(OH)2 + H2

2x + O2 --> 2xO
2xO + 2H2O --> 2x(OH)2

Where x is an Alkaline Earth Metal.
Both processes are relatively efficient unless you consider Hydrogen, which is produced in the first, to be a waste product. The second process only produces the hydroxide.
Magnesium is an Alkaline Earth Metal - it, and its oxide, react with water to form a basic alkaline solution.

Mg + 2H2O --> Mg(OH)2 + H2
Magnesium + Water --> Magnesium Hydroxide + Hydrogen

2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO
Magnesium + Oxygen --> Magnesium Oxide
2MgO + 2H2O --> 2Mg(OH)2
Magnesium Oxide + Water --> Magnesium Hydroxide

The electron configuration of Magnesium is 2,8,2 - two electrons in its outer/valence shell

Metal Head

Kay, I'm sick of looking at the difinitions of how a metal head lives, that's like trying to describe how to make a cake. A metal head is someone who listens to metal. That's all there is to it. You need not to dress a certain way to be a metal head, this isn't MTV, you feckin clowns. You don't need to wear hoodies or ripped jeans and have long hair to be a metal head, you could shop at JC Penny and still listen to metal. By stating a lifestyle of a metal head, just makes it a potential fad. 'Metal Head', like any other subculture is just a title.
lmao, how do you use an example for a metal head?

'metal head': oh dude, today I dropped out of school and smoked some dope while listening to judas priest.

metaquestion

MEH-tuh-kwest-chun

A habit of speech and conversation whereby a questioner asks a very unspecific question of a questionee, or series of such questions, leading up to the actual question which the questioner would like the questionee to answer. A waste of conversational bandwidth, be it spoken or digital.
"Can I ask you a question?"

useful retorts:

"You just did."
"Yes, but only one, and you already used it up."
"No."
