    • cement: mostly not rocks and mortar mix or whatever the fuck
    • concrete: mostly rocks, mortar mix, and significantly stronger than cement.
    • lava: literally actually just fucking molten rock
    • also lava: buried thousands of feet deeper below millions, possibly billions of pounds of more rock
    • concrete: weights about the same

    shitposting aside this would just spray incredibly small chunks of solidified lava everywhere, for miles.

      Cement is the chemical that cements. Mix it with sand and you get mortar, add aggregate and you get concrete. Concrete is not only made with cement, if you swap it for bitumen, you get asphalt.

      It’s like expecting the pipe of a pipe bomb to contain the explosion

          i think we should build a giant lava canal and store the lava in a pool.

        i mean, it does contain it, so uh.

        It just won’t contain it forever.

      Okay, but what if you push it down with both your hands? Lava couldn’t get out then. Checkmate.
