It took the Ars staff a few minutes of grappling with Poe's Law to figure out if they were serious or not. On the one hand, how many parents would really mistake thermal compound for a medical syringe? On the other hand... the world's a big place, and as recently as 2015, I needed to tell parents en masse that the most prevalent server operating system on the planet isn't malware, so who knows? But Cooler Master is probably just joining the likes of Wendy's, Denny's, and Old Spice on Snarky Brand Twitter.

Won't surprise me if that's true and not just them. Anything that takes standard needles has used for drugs. Just like "Forever Rose" sold at many gas stations etc. Is a fake flower w/ a small glass tube many say is just to snuff coke etc. and want to ban them.

Great for Valentine's Day Ogre.. Just make sure you get the ones that are in limited quantities (don't delay! 2 billion or less) and come with a numbered & certified (by 'someone') letter of authenticity. Don't forget to get a hand crafted (by Amish craftsmen of course) wooden base for it.

This is a typical tube of thermal paste:
If anyone thinks their kid is on drugs based on that, they are probably right. The kid is on drugs because his parents are idiots.
We need a facepalm icon for post titles.
