Anon hates aluminum

These two clearly don't know about titanium.

Aluminium

very clearly the best metal is mercury because it's the only one you can drink at room temperature

Really? No one's on the Tungsten train over here? Highest melting point of all metals. It's also called 'the devourer of tin'. Now that's metal for ya.

I only fly in airplanes made of 100% American steel.

The true tossup is actually mercury or lead.

Both insanely useful metals with a massive variety of helpful traits.

And the universe made them poisonous to us as a big "FUCK YOU".

Amateurs! It's gotta be silver!

Looks nice in jewellery
Antimicrobial properties
An essential component of camera film
Highly conductive (e.g. used for electrodes and thermal paste in computing)
Catalyst in many chemical reactions
Used to make mirrors
A critical component of solar panels
The only metal capable of incapacitating werewolves, and also somewhat effective against vampires

Iron and bronze have entire ages of history named after them, so…

Aluminum "rusts" as well. White rust. Aluminum oxide.

You should sneak into his garage in the night and sabotage all his aluminum ingots by hitting them with a hammer until they crack. When he tries to break into your garage to get revenge, he'll break his hammer and hurt his wrist because iron ingots are superior in strength. That'll show him.

Carbon is the best metal, ask any astrophysicist.

Fuck you, titanium rules.

Gallium or bust.

It's not really useful but it looks cool and it'll eat away at both if their metals.

God damn rustcucks can't deal with their own inferiority. When's the last time you even used pure iron for something instead of alloy, you fucking loser.🤡

Still the most normal conversation on 4chan

i like uranium better.

Cursed as fuck metal.

Why is nobody here for-copper?

Aluminum is great, until you want to machine it. Then it's a gummy piece of shit.

Zinc is by FAR the best element. I also like Plutonium. It's just fun to say. Plutonium. How's your Plutonium? Good thank you.

Sad to see so low level of intellect in the comment section; can't even spell the element aluminium correctly

I would listen to this person's extremely specific rant.

Aluminum has always been my favorite element and metal. I feel the urge to punch this anon in his aluminum-hating fuckface.

aluminum actually corrodes quicker, but it oxidizes to a layer of aluminum oxide that seals out air and water, whereas iron has a permeable oxide that lets air and water get to the iron under the oxide. So in practice it doesn't rust nearly as fast as iron

Iron is dogshit compared to aluminum

Counterpoint for iron, stainless steal. Or 1014L (the L stands for lead) its .14% carbon and the lead makes it more dense and resistent to rust

Everyone knows magnesium is the superior metal.

I thought Ozzy was the best metal

brass is tha best change my mind

Al i want yo know is how is it prnounced. Is the last i silent?

Foiled again, drat

Uranium gang rise up 🍄‍🟫

Mistborn moment

Frank Costanza?!

I hate aluminum too! It's the plastic of metals.

People really think some element born within a star or supernova is the best? Even tho none of them even have a Nirvana song named after them? The best ones are obviously those created either during the primordial nucleosynthesis or by spallation, when atoms are hit by cosmic rays in colder zones.

Boron yo
