Parodic Table of the Elements

Mrs. Krabappel: Who can tell me the atomic weight of bolognium?
Martin: Ooh! Delicious?
Mrs. Krabappel: Correct. I would also accept "snacktacular."

—The Simpsons

The periodic table of the elements is one of those mysterious things that everyone sees in science class and almost nobody actually understands, so parodies of it are common. The Parodic Table of the Elements generally breaks down into these categories:

Puts non-elements into locations in the actual Periodic Table, so that their names reference the names of the original elements. Generally, this ignores the actual point of the Periodic Table (namely, the fact that elements are not arbitrarily placed, but placed based on their common characteristics). This may overlap with Elements Do Not Work That Way, and sometimes E=MC Hammer.

Tables that put new "elements" in columns based on common characteristics. You know, like the real thing. More often than not, these will have a shape unlike the real Periodic Table.

Examples of Parodic Table of the Elements include:
