azidoazide azide is a material composed because it seemed possible and then experimented on to see its possible applications, which all concluded there was basically no useful application for this thing that explodes in response to:
- Physical agitation
- Changes in temperature
- Changes in light level
- Nearby sounds
- Turning on observational devices
- Being left alone
