ethergoth

Ethergoth is a subgenre of gothic fashion & music. The name stems from the ethereal music scene that began in the 80's. It can be characterized by it's serene, ambient qualities & unusual, often hard to define lyrics. The fashion of an ethergoth is more subtle or toned down than other versions of goth. They wear simple, all-black outfits that channel medieval or romantic gothic styles. Bell sleeves, amazing hats, & elegant skirts are common among girls in the scene, while ethergoth men wear poet shirts or tee shirts with simple black jeans. Jewel tone colors can be found among ethergoths quite commonly. The personality of a person who enjoys ethergoth music & fashion tends to be a quiet thoughtful soul who would rather read a good book, sip tea, or take a walk in the park than hang out at a noisy club. They love to surround themselves with the unique beauty they see in the world & can be found creating, painting, collecting crystals & bones, & burning incense. Ethergoths love to educate themselves on matters of philosophy, literature, mythology, nature & the supernatural & can be a wealth of information. Some goths who normally wear more dramatic fare dress like ethergoths when they need to be more toned down for work, family reunions, etc. It is also a good way for young folk who are interested in becoming goth to dip their toes into the subculture without horrifying their parents.

Look! There's an ethergoth photographing a bird skull she found on a hike.

Diethyl ether

Diethyl ether is a solvent that is useful for grignard reactions. It's also an anesthetic. Diethyl ether is highly flammable (even electrical outlets and too high temperatures can ignite it. Diethyl ether must be stored with butylated hydroxytoluene to avoid peroxide products which are explosive. Diethyl ether is also sometimes used for extractions, but other solvents like ethyl chloride, chloroform, toluene, hexane, and dichloromethane are generally preferred. Diethyl ether is synthesized by reacting ethanol with sulfuric acid. This reaction must be carried out at temperatures lower than 150 °C in order to ensure that an elimination product (ethylene) is not a product of the reaction. At higher temperatures, ethanol will dehydrate to form ethylene. The reaction to make diethyl ether is reversible, so eventually an equilibrium between reactants and products is achieved. Getting a good yield of ether requires that ether be distilled out of the reaction mixture before it reverts to ethanol.

I reacted ethyl magnesium chloride in diethyl ether with acetone, then reacted it with hydrochloric acid, and got 2-methyl-2-butanol.

etherkiller

Device for instantly killing computer equipment: an Ethernet jack on one side, spliced to a power cord on the other end. When plugged into an internet port, floods the computer with electricity, thus destroying it. Invented by the BOFH (Bastard Operator From Hell) from Simon Travaglia.

The IT guy was pissed off about being fired, so he took his etherkiller from router to router, frying them.
