Sorry for the late bump but this just happened to me and I thought of this thread,

In the thread about dry ice, a couple of people mentioned the new to me word “[leidenfrost](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leidenfrost_effect)”. A few minutes later I opened a bumped thread from 2011 and find out we had a poster back in the day named [LeidenFrost](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ever-heard-of-anyone-on-opiates-doing-this-and-why/601826/2). Can’t get more trivial than that.
