Yeah, just bury it and make it someone else's problem in the future.

I've seen this train of thinking somewhere. Spoiler alert, it was a bad idea.

Nope, if you bury it in a few inches of concrete it's literally never a problem again unless society somehow completely collapsed and all knowledge of nuclear waste is lost

I've seen this level of confidence from people who don't know what they're talking about before. Spoiler alert, it's embarrassing for you

Ahahahahahah! Oh the irony! Drop the smugness.

Dude, you don't know as much about nuclear energy as you think. But you know even less about concrete.

I'm putting this one on Facebook for my civil engineer friends to laugh at. It's going to be a riot. Concrete is pourous as hell and doesn't last much on a grand scale. And on top of that you think a few inches is enough? This is nuclear waste, it's not Emma Dorothy from Sunday school!

Stop embarrassing yourself.

Nah, you want to start it when you're talking out your ass, imma keep it when I'm correcting you.

Oh wow, good scientific counterpoints! If only you could Google it and find out for yourself...

Stop embarrassing yourself

You really should, 5s in Google and I found exactly what I'm talking about:

I simplified with just using "concrete" because "they fill a container with inert gas and pour concrete around it and it's fine" is easily shortened to "dump concrete around it"

Shit, theres a YouTube video of someone kissing one of those, standing next to it for the whole video, nothing happens at all. You have no idea what you're talking about
