They say hydrogen is an odorless colorless gas which, in sufficient quantities, given enough time, turns into people. I’m sure the same could be true of resistors.
You get stable things heavier than iron, and they're more common than you'd expect. It's possible that they form in neutron star collisions, which are complete anarchy in atomic terms.
So wait, if they resist the statement that they're a resistor, are they a resistor or not? I think they're a semiconductor. Maybe they work at a railway junction. :D
