A subset of the phases of matter, fluids include liquids, gases, plasmas and, to some extent, plastic solids.
Fluids share the properties of not resisting deformation and the ability to flow (also described as their ability to take on the shape of their containers). These properties are typically a function of their inability to support a shear stress in static equilibrium. While in a solid, stress is a function of strain, in a fluid stress is a function of rate of strain. A consequence of this behaviour is Pascal's law which entails the important role of pressure in characterising a fluid's state.
Fluids can be characterised as:

@johnsonvision eep! Do all the preventative stuff; fluids, EmergenC,etc... hope Brandi feels better.

I think I've successfully showered off bodily fluids day at work. :barf: HA. Litterally. That was nasty.

daughter is much better @Jo_Adelaide she's now eating a little bit and taking fluids. Well on the road to recovery now. Very much relieved.

Iso/Thixotropy - This experiment demonstrates iso- and thixo-tropy properties of certain emulsions (fluid mixtures).
Science Snacks About Fluids - A set of very simple experiments featured by Exploratorium, each one with details on materials, assembly, how can be done, and an explanation of the physical laws involved.
