When I saw the title, "Got Acid," I thought it was another anti-drug strip. 
The voting incentive.....HAHAHA...SO FUNNY!!!  Literally ROFL...

Trichloroacetic acid?
Oh, yeah, that is a good one!
I bet you know what it is used for normally and that's why you decided to include it in the strip....
By the way, even though the molecular formula you used in the comic is scientifically correct (HC3-CL3-O2), the one that is commonly used is CCl3COOH, because the Trichloroacetic (AKA trichloroethanoic acid), unlike sulfuric acid, for example, is an organic compound. |

Hey, Wingsofwrath, good to see you again.
As far as the acid is concerned, though, I'll have to admit that I didn't know what it's usually used for - I was really just looking for a strong acid with a cool Latin name. 
I looked it up, though - that really makes it better. |
