This is a very serious question. Since what we usually refer to as "weight" is actually mass if we use weight-loss drugs are we technically using weapons of mass destruction? :3c

I can't believe the people replying to me...

Einstein is famous for E= mc^2 . That's literally the equation that describes how much energy you get from destroying mass. It's the core of why nuclear power produces so much energy. A tiny tiny amount of mass is converted directly to energy. Mass gone. Energy here.

    Fwiw, I was just just trying to be funny, and I think many, myself included, are thinking about the results of setting off such a bomb and the effect it would have on the surrounding mass.
