Call it "Rainbow Wine". This is how you'd make it:
Call a chemist. "Hello, chemist here."
"Hey chemist, I need some chemistry."
"Ahh, excellent, how much chemistry will you be needing
today?"
"Enough to have a glass of wine change from red, to
white,
to blue, to pink and maaaayyybeeee,
how about green
once you expose it to air by pouring it in the glass."
"Hmm, that's tricky, that'll require quite a bit of
chemistry.
Luckily I'm a chemist and have plenty of time, especially
on weekends while everybody else is out dating chicks.
Do
you have money?"
"Uhh... sure."
"Very good, I'll start working on it now."
NOTE: This has nothing to do with the link shown where
somebody adds something to the drink to change the
color. This cycles through different colors as it reacts to
air once poured into the glass.

This is perfectly practical; it merely involves changing the oxidation states of some organic dyes, using various metal catalysts. |

You're not bothered about, er, toxicity at all, are you ? |
|
| |
The excuse is entertaining, but this would have been nearly trivial to flesh out. [-] |
|
| |
//You're not bothered about, er, toxicity at all, are
you ?// |
|
| |
I never said it couldn't be highly toxic. You should get
a good buzz out of it though. |
|
| |
You really are an obnoxious boring asshole. |
|
| |
If only there were someplace where people could
post half-baked ideas and engage in friendly, light
hearted chats about them just for fun. |
|
| |
That's a great idea, [Doc]. You could post it here as a new idea and then everyone can kick the virtual crap out of you for posting such a half-baked idea. |
|
| |
Guessing that people who like to kick "virtual crap"
out of strangers are probably frustrated because they
wouldn't fare too well in a real life, face to face
conflict. |
|
| |
The toughest, smartest people I know are generally
pretty nice folks. |

Chill - Only Trump holds that particular title. |
|
| |
What about us ? Don't we get a look in ? |
|
| |
Can we at least be "as bad as Hitler" ? |
|
| |
OK, if not Hitler, then how about Himmler, or Heydrich ? |
|
| |
"If everybody is Hitler, then nobody is Hitler." |
|
| |
So everybody should dress as Hitler? |
|
| |
//you’d have to make sure your chemist-induced
color change doesn’t introduce any off-notes.// |
|
| |
I see the idea is finally sinking in as you're changing
the criticism from "already exists" (it doesn't) to
"Might taste funny." after playing the "You called
me
Hitler!" falsehood. (I never have.) |
|
| |
Let me clarify, I've modified the original idea. This
would be highly toxic by design. |
|
| |
//if you insist on discussion...// you're kidding
right? |
|
| |
Ha - a puny attempt to divert the topic away from
the "who's more like Hitler debate.... Trump or
kdf?" Meanwhile 8th is crying like a cow that's just
peed on an electric fence. It's enough to drive you
to multi coloured wine. |
|
| |
Xen, just between me and you, please don't drink
this particular multi colored wine. Here's the review
from Fancy Wino Monthly: |
|
| |
"A highly toxic formulation with hints of death and a
nose that hits the pallet like napalm. Although well
balanced, the balance is between brutal 3rd degree
chemical burns and instant death. Rated 4 stars out
of 5 on the toxicity scale." |
|
| |
//You're an idiot// a useful response to any social situation! |
|
| |
PS [8th] can be assigned to be almost as bad as Goering's secretary's aunties cleaner's cat-groomer |
|
| |
Anyway I don't want my wine to change colour but I will acknowledge that other drinkers may. |
|
| |
As I've mentioned before, I am completely stupid when it comes to
alcohol, its taste and appreciation. The only thing I've ever learned
for certain about any alcoholic drink is that a particular brand of
beer comes from Clydesdales. |
|
| |
That being said, I know that I have seen websites touting the idea
that certain colors of wine go best with certain foods; and if your
wine is going to start changing colors when dispensed, you (a)
probably don't want to dispense too much of it at once; (b) might
need to have small sip-sized drinking glasses so you can down the
dose at just the right color-moment; (c) might need several glasses,
each with its own color-chart/timer to keep the meal from stretching
on too long from having to start the timing over after each sip. |
|
| |
Judging from the popularity of the risk of toxicity of fugu, I would
guess the best thing for this would be some parallel chemistry that
leads to a (nearly) non-toxic moment right around the correct color-
mark. |
|
| |
Some accelerometers and tilt-switchery along side the timer and
colorimeter circuitry, and, in case of misjudgement, the glass could
place your 911 call before you even put it down. |
|
| |
// 8th usually gets a pass for death and torture suggestions because he's clever, humorous, and works out the details. // |
|
| |
Is that meant to be some sort of compliment ? It sort-of reads like one. Sort of. But not entirely. |
|
| |
// almost as bad as Goering's secretary's aunties cleaner's cat-groomer // |
|
| |
Not bad enough. Nowhere near bad enough ... |
|
| |
// unfair to both 8th and cats // |
|
| |
Unfair to us, certainly; nothing wrong with being unfair to cats, evil disease-carrying flea hotels that they are ... |
|
| |
// Judging from the popularity of the risk of toxicity of fugu // |
|
| |
... in a culture that espouses a whole range of bizarre social behaviours. Not that we have any objection to anything that holds out the prospect of killing off a few more of the evil, perverted little swine. |
