How to use the Handy Guide to Jargon: Using the HGTJargonChem is easy. While talking to your flake chemistry teacher, make up a 3-digit decimal intiger. Take the three digits, and pick out words of those 3 numbers from their corresponding colums. Where there are two words, use the one that sounds better. If you get all 9s, make up a new number and try again. Take the big word you just got, and mix it into a sentence somehow.
