This really isnt just some kind of joke. Its about facts and what the periodic table is all about (maybe not). Learning have never been this fun with brochures right? Well, let me show you how to.

The elements can be classified as metals, non-metals, or metalloids. Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, and are malleable (they can be hammered into sheets) and ductile (they can be drawn into wire). Most of the metals are solids at room temperature, with a characteristic silvery shine (except for mercury, which is a liquid). Non-metals are (usually) poor conductors of heat and electricity, and are not malleable or ductile; many of the elemental non-metals are gases at room temperature, while others are liquids and others are solids. The metalloids are intermediate in their properties. In their physical properties, they are more like the non-metals, but under certain circumstances, several of them can be made to conduct electricity. These semiconductors are extremely important in computers and other electronic devices.
In 1871, the arrangement of the elements is according to the increasing atomic mass, and the elements with the same properties were put in the same row by Dimitri Mendeleev. Today, the elements with the same properties are put together in one column. Later on, trends on the periodic table was seen by numerous people and are followed to predict future elements. Some are: by Atomic Radius, by Ionic Radius, by Electronegativity, by Electron Affinity and etc. These trends arent always true and can be seen with the current arrangement of the elements.
As you go across a the atoms get slightly heavier, but they also get smaller.
