I got them for half as much did you buy the gold ones?

they're the most fun you'll ever have with tiny balls.
just, for the love of god, let children play with them.
1) half of them will get lost and will stick to the worst imaginable things
2) if the kid swallows just one, no big deal. if the kid swallows one and then swallows something else that is magnetic (like another one), they will probably stick together through the intestinal walls, which can cause serious infections and death

Those are not bucky balls.

They are spherical neodymium magnets.

Not that those aren't also awesome.

>Even my game-programmer friend in Texas offered me a million credits for one hour on the UC. Wanted to make the Game of Life with buckyballs... Joking, of course.

They can pinch your intestinal lining together and what not.

>> No.2408345

>>2408338
not if one magnet sticks to another when they are at different parts of the intestinal track.

>> No.2408365

>>2408345
They would stick together in your stomach, no?

>> No.2408381

>>2408365
if they attach while both are in the stomach, yes
if there is a lapse of time between swallowing the first and the second, probably not

I fucking love magnets.
But it annoys me slightly that they're be sold as Buckyballs. That's the nickname for buckminsterfullerenes.

>> No.2408409

Get zen magnets, not bucky balls. The quality, price, and company are all much better.
