I ate some 0402 LED, now I glow in the dark whenever I eat tacos.
I am available for freelance work.

The tiny bits of solder stuck to SMT parts is unlikely to do any harm, because not much of it will be absorbed. You will simply shit it out.

Another issue with small parts: company cleaners don't dare to clean our desks because they're afraid to wipe parts away... :-//

OMG! Reporting this to moderator as off-topic!
I hope you are joking.


Have you told your mom? Can you video tape it, when you do? Just kidding!
Tell her what? She was there!



Your mom must have either no taste buds, or a steel stomach. (Or are we being spared the reaction?)

I've accidentally gotten "blue cheese" in my mouth before, and EEEWWW (even the tinyest bit)! It's up there on the vomit meter (suprisingly I didn't), putridly bitter and sour (uric acid).
I spared you the reaction, or rather, I left it up to the imagination for dramatic effect. ;)

(For those without the capacity to extrapolate: It was not one of happiness and joy!)
