My kids could use a science lesson today. Maybe I'll have them prepare a summary

When one piece of metal thinks another piece of metal is really hot, it makes the moves.

Let's post pictures of magnets and then do a poll to determine which has the most magnetic strength

A metallic "hot or not" as it were. I think Jefe might disapprove.

Pretty condescending to assume he knows what atoms are

No, that doesn't seem right. I am pretty sure only metals have magnetic pull.

There IS an attractive force between all objects. It's the reason you're stuck

Umm CDV does take his iron supplements, so he is made of metal.

I'm no expert on this, but since nobody has offered an explanation, I'll give it
