I'm just excited for who put an element that is not in fact a noble gas.

Windy?

 

[Dali Llama]

Ugh, my first thought was proximity to US for the country question but went Mexico instead of Canada.

I went Canada because it has less people than Mexico

 

[terps2001]

Franco
Argon (alphabetical fail)
Mexico

 

[JamesSokolove]

Ive never even heard of James Franco

 

[deactherunner]

There is a minor case to be made for the other noble gases
Ar-most abundant
Krypton-might draw in the comic book people?
Xenon-funniest name
Radon-might be in your basement
Oganesson-heaviest atom to ever be created

 

[deac_tracy]

Lebron James (I agonized for a while about whether last names would count, but ultimately he was way more famous than James Franco or James Taylor)
Neon (As a chemist, I would be remiss if I didn't remind people that argon was the third most abundant gas in the atmosphere. Neon is better for both non-chemists and chemists, who would be drawn to a specific column on the periodic table by "noble gas". From there, it was just looking one space down from helium)
Canada (proximity)

I said Lebron too

It's Sheep and he said "Not Helium". You just go to the next one after Helium

 

[Wakeforest22890]

Damn I almost put Oganesson too.

celebrities are not just famous people, they are people who can’t go to the grocery store without being bothered. Ain’t no paparazzi hiding in bushes to snap pictures of James earl jones

That's Darth Vader to you bro

 

[deacdiggler]

oof. harden doesn't seem like a good guess, esp when i originally went lebron

 

[PhDeac]

I didn't even think of Lebron or any athletes. I went with Franco. There aren't as many famous Jameses as you'd think.

 

[deacon14]

I'm shocked this many people are saying Lebron is one they thought about or did actually put. Putting someone with the last name of James never even crossed my mind.

 

[BeachBumDeac]

Do famous Jims or Jimmys count?

I thought about this, as well. But then the answer would be James Dean, right? Other than being dead, that dude is iconic.

James Franco hasn't done shit in like 5 years.

 

[mako1331]

Went Mexico over Canada, but I spent way too much time thinking about it. I'm sure I fucked that one up.

Same, uh oh.

 

[DeaconCav06]

James Earl
Neon
Mexico

 

[DeacsATS]

Do famous Jims or Jimmys count?

Only if other people thought they did.

And they didn't.
