    I’m guessing it’s trying to make fun of fissile atoms. But I see two problems with this.

    1. It’s not specified what type of atom it is. Most atoms in our surroundings do not release energy when split, but instead requires a, comparatively, large amount at energy to undergo fission.
    2. Even if they found a uranium-235 atom, one the most fissile elements found in the earths crust, the energy released by a single atom is miniscule. You need a huge amount of atoms to make anything akin to a bomb.

    And yes, I’ve been hugely popular at both parties I’ve attended.
