This Is The Future IUPAC Wants
Chemistry nerds, unite! 🤓 This brilliant wordplay hinges on methyl (CH₃) vs "meth" in a rather unexpected context. The chemical structure shown is indeed methyl - a common organic compound group with one carbon bonded to three hydrogens. The joke plays on how "methyl analysis" could be misread as something COMPLETELY different on an adult website! IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) is the organization that standardizes chemical naming conventions - and they'd probably need a moment to recover from this one! Chemistry: where innocent molecular structures can accidentally create the most awkward search results.
