Get the weapons of mass destruction mug.After I ate a burrito from Taco Bell and released a Weapon of Ass Destruction, everyone in the room was left unconscious.

Get the weapons of ass destruction mug.A potentially dangerous substance that has been refined to the point where that potential is fully realised.
This term was originally applied to both uranium and plutonium. U235 is the fissionable isotope, but makes up less that one percent of natural uranium. This has to be increased to 90% (by an extremely laborious process) to produce weapons grade uranium. Plutonium for weapons is generally produced in nuclear reactors (the far more commn U238 is easily transumuted to P239) but again it has to be refined to about 95% purity before it can be used to make a nuclear weapon.
Nowadays anthrax is often referred to as being of 'weapons grade', but the usual term applied to chemical and biological agents is that they have been weaponised. Weaponisation describes the process of making them more potent or virulent, and packaging them for efficient delivery to the target. Weapons grade is the more colorful phrase that looks good on a headline and sounds oh so cool when used by a teen to describe a fart, say, or a fiery chilli. Already a cliche.

A resident of the town of Zmeinogorsk in Altai has handed eight containers of weapons-grade plutonium-239 to the police. Each of the containers handed in by Leonid Grigorov held 50 grams of plutonium. Grigorov planned to receive $8.25 per milligram after reading about rewards for surrendering radioactive material in the local media. However, criminal proceedings were instigated against him for “illegal storage of radioactive substances,” ITAR-TASS news agency reported Tuesday.

Get the weapons grade mug.WMD- weapons, such as ICBMs, that can wipe out huge numbers of people in one fell swoop, causing massive loss of life and huge amounts of collateral damage
In August 1945, the United States dropped the first atom bomb deployed in combat on Hiroshima, Japan, causing over 50k people to die and the destruction of a good portion of the city.

Get the Weapons of Mass Destruction mug.Knowingly and deliberately misconstruing another person's words in order to generate and direct false outrage against that person or that person's views.
By twisting my words into something I clearly did not intend, my political opponents are deploying weaponized obtuseness to attack me.

Get the weaponized obtuseness mug.George Bush's (pick one)excuse for going to war to scoff up some oil, regardless of how many people have to die for it.
Soon to be former President G.W. Bush used the Bush trademark "Weapons of Mass Delusion" to rush into a war that the rest of the world was trying desparately to stop.

ZOOM! Right in the kisser...I will not wait for that to happen. I must do the right thing and kill off hundreds of thousands of innocent people at once...so as to free Iraq.
