I would spam B
dude forgot Rule 2
Hot 🔥

Bitch, you came looking for silver and found gold.
She recognized the gold.
She now wants his filthiest pickup line.
It better be about dead animal bones and forging too
Hey, you’re hot like a forge. Wanna bone?
(Never said it’ll gonna be good)
You don’t know if it’s good until you tried it
Baby, I want to burst open your dam … and watch your river flow

She’s concerned because he also loves talking about Rome and 40k
You need to be able to pick the recipe option then. If someone knows recipes from ancient Rome, they might just be a harmless history nerd. If someone knows recipes from WH40K, well, I don’t know what to say.
Wouldn’t 40k, depending on who and where, be something like, “Open meal package. Place 200g water in package. Close package and shake for 40 seconds. Open package and eat.” Civilian worlds you can just make up whatever, just like the scenario designers do. Want a US-lite world? Got one. Want a world reminiscent of 1800s UK? Got two.
Why would anyone need to pick another option? That would seduce the heck out of me
I would agree if not for the flagrant grammatical error. That is a huge turnoff.
Because this is fake.
I do not know, there could be the option of a very sexy cheese cake recipe.
So, like… a cheesecake recipe?
If I wanted to eat slightly warm or cold cheese, I’d pick better options than cream cheese. You gotta dress up a cheesecake to make it anything but mundane.
I think you can also interpret it that she wanted to hear what she missed.
Well that’s just greedy. But I’ll accept it
That’s when you slap the “one per date” card on the table;)
Smooth
She wants the recipe
So she wants the D?
Jokes on her. The recipe is iron and animal bones to make a sweet axe.
That would be a great follow-up joke.
Now if she chooses the dirty pickup line, you respond with “girl, are you a viking steel crucible? 'Cause I’d put a bone in you.”
And then if she chooses the cheesy pickup line:
Girl, are you made of iron and animal bones? Because you’ve got all the elements to forge a bond stronger than a Viking axe.
LOL
I believe the proper response is “No”.
pick B a second time
Can I pick a another option
Is this actually true? Because all the YouTube videos I’ve seen of people trying to make iron in primitive ways have the issue of too much carbon in the iron. This causes the iron to be very brittle and hard to work. The trick about making good steel is to get just the right amount of carbon.
You know you are in for a good time when you get to the chapter called “Sexual connotations”.
I’m not an expert on the field, so I’ve read the paper, but am not qualified to draw conclusions from it. But as I read it, the focus is more on the role of ritual and religion in the making of the iron. And the transfer of knowledge through this process and hypothesize the addition of the burning of bone is actually beneficial.
However they do not approach this from a material technology standpoint. So I would love for someone with knowledge on this point to chime in. It’s very interesting if the people back in the day knew how to make low carbon iron and the little bit of carbon they did add came from the burning of the bones. But as I see it the burning of the bones is more a ritual kind of thing and getting all of the carbon out of the iron is the harder thing to do, not putting the carbon in.
Bone char isn’t super high carbon, so it’s possible that either the calcium phosphate or calcium carbonate is playing a roll.
But honestly, you’re probably not getting very much of it mixed in from primitive smelting or forging methods.
I am by no means a material scientist or biologist, but I have studied a lot of them and have some curiosities.
It would be interesting to see how calcium doping modified the properties of the alloy. AFAIK the temperatures that iron smelts at is to high for the carbonate or phosphate bonds to remain stable, so most of it should have ended up as free calcium or phosphorus.
I also imagine that the type of bones have a lot to do with it, since avian bones have a different composition and density than say, a moose bone. Different kinds of animals also have evolved different metal doping concentrations.
You’ve studied a lot of material scientists and biologists? What we talking here? Questionnaires or binoculars in the bushes?
Do you not have a collection of scientists pinned to your wall for display purposes?
Shhhh. You will scare them.
Low carbon is actually a good thing to help avoid including too much and making the steel brittle.
Also remember that carbon is lost as the metal is worked, so the strength can be increased simply by working the metal longer. This is how wrought iron is produced, although wrought iron ends up having a much lower carbon content in the process of removing slag.
