Hey kids, today I'll be discussing the alcoholic equivalents of the various allotropes of carbon. - For those of you that don't know, an allotrope is just the various forms that carbon atoms can arrange themselves into. But anyway, let's get started. - So, amorphous carbon is like beer. It's the first form to ever be produced by humans, likely by accident. It's also the weakest form. It has a bunch of varieties, most of which taste terrible, and you need a whole lot of it if you want to have a good cookout. - Graphite is like wine. It's almost as old as amorphous carbon, having been used by humans since ancient times. However, it's significantly stronger. Up until recently, only the rich could really get much enjoyment out of it, but today most individuals can use it if they choose. But not all varieties are equal. - Diamond is like vodka. First of all, it's very strong, the strongest form that's likely to be found in the average household. It's typically valued based on its purity and clarity. The flavored varieties do exist, though. It can be manufactured right here at home, but most people seem to prefer it when it's from far-off lands. And remember, never use too much of it, or else you might regret it later. - Graphene is like brandy. It's similar to graphite in structure, but it's put through a process to make it more pure, and as a result, it's much stronger. - Fullerenes are like absinthe. It's not as mainstream as the other varieties, mostly only being used by the intellectual types. It's also claimed to have a bunch of properties not shared by any other form out there, but despite all its hype, it has little real-world application currently. -...
