I didn’t see the post nor the hilarious responses to it.

My middle name is Unsymmetrical Dimethyl!

I was more familiar with MMH during my years of employment. Not so much UDMH. LOL!

Some of my earliest work after college was on the Gemini launch vehicle program. Been so long ago that I don’t remember the propellants exactly, and have to look them up:
Google confirms my recollection - fuel was UDMH and hydrazine; oxidizer Nitrogen Tetraoxide.
Had to wear protective gear to do a test with Nitrogen Tetraoxide once. Long time ago.
