Name the elements

Who, What, Why: How do elements get their names? - BBC News

A big decision now lies ahead - elements 113, 115, 117 and 118 need to be given their official names and symbols.

113 is f**king useless, annoying and a drain on humanity. I propose Cameronium. Symbol

I prefer the old school version

Air, Fire, Water and Earth!

Boomeranium

Can grow in mass by sucking the energy out of other elements. Tends to dominate the periodic table. Actually it owns the table.

Scientific symbol: BLT

[DimPrawn]

Scientific symbol: BLT

Sandwiched on the periodic table between Boomium and Bustium.

Hipsterium

Does not appear to do anything useful.

Makes an annoying whiny noise when pressure is applied.

If left alone it will make itself look increasingly more stupid - this characteristic appears to be infinite as we still find more and more stupid looking ones each day.

Or something

Careful boy! we are watching you.

PS Or would be if we hadn't mislaid our glasses again.
