Was it the blue chip. God Damn the blue one from 2022 was insane, way hotter than the previous years. Luckily I have a stomach of iron, so other than some heartburn I was fine, but the amount of discomfort from that chip is making me think twice about doing it next year

I'd say we communally own the spices, i say "my" cuz i do most of the cooking and i pay for groceries. we don't have separate spices lol.

I'm not gonna take my revenge, she wanted to help me and did a lil oopsie. pretty sure getting pepper sprayed is good enough of a reminder to not use an electric blower anywhere near spices. fuck ups happen, this one happened to be pretty bad only cuz it happened to be with cayenne pepper.

it's odd and not odd at the same time. Cans, once drunk from, are rubbish, and so using it as a weapon doesn't seem a share. DVDs are never rubbish, they are always useful, so perhaps people's minds don't turn to using them as something else! But i agree it's also a bit silly.

A hello also from another that used to work in such a ward. I talked to some amazing people (old chap who liked to clean the table after food, telling me about how they sanded the tables in the boats when he was in the army) and then some upsetting stuff of course (russian lady just screaming all day) and some funny (if you wanted to get out, just shout "there's the tea trolley!" so they all trundle off happily down the hall and you can use the keypad and escape). It was an adventure.

If the bag is hand sized and the container can be filled with all the weight, you could pinch and put the top half of the bag, turn the bag on a 45 degree angle on the mouth container, turn the bag 90 degrees (+ 45 degrees) to start filling the container. If the container can handle the fuller weight, and another 90 degrees to let the rest of the spice out. The container sits down as it is being filled by one hand. Do this in the sink, so left over spices can be easily washed away - water, soap and scrub and water. No funnel need.

Honestly if you just brush their teeth before bed it isn't a problem to give them juice during the day. I grew up in a dental family and was always told to brush my kids teeth as soon as they start erupting. You can even get them used to it by brushing their gums when they are infants so they don't fight you. Juice and cola aren't going to eat your teeth immediately it is when it is allowed to sit on the teeth. My kids go to bed with a waterborne of water and have since they were toddlers.

I used to work in a company that supplied a few mental health hospitals, and it was an eye opener just how many things had to be taken into consideration to keep their patients safe. It's not easy, and I can see why that can's can be dangerous as they can be very sharp if you tear them into strips. It made me feel lucky that it wasn't my burden. I did one hospital some long necked, cemented smoke bins because one patient ate the butt's and was really ill, then the replacement were long necked but not weighted which wasn't an issue until someone got hit on the head with one. So we got the Weighted ones sent out. They did the trick, but there was always something, and no matter what contingencies you put in place, a patient in a manic state can be dangerous to themselves with anything that comes to hand. It's nobodies fault, and all you can do is to make everything as safe as possible before incidents happen.

I did the death but challenge at work and posted about it here too. That poisoned peanut damn near killed me. I wound up puking and shitting my brains out in the office bathroom and almost blacked out.

Your experience, by far tops my own. I did not get pepper vomit in my eyes and no loved one’s birthdays were ruined. Still I know what you experienced in that bathroom and I stand with you in solidarity.

I did the one chip challenge last year, honestly it was extremely hot but manageable.

What killed me was the taste, it was absolutely revolting. Tasted like you would imagine melted plastic and battery acid does. Was way worse than the heat.

Did have bad cramps for a couple days but my insides are fucked anyway.

Story time; I’m at the airport and grab a water to refill my canister…and of course, yep, carbonated. But my bottle doesn’t have a flip straw, it’s a full width screw top. Fast forward, I’m watching a movie 10,000 feet up, gets thirsty. Twissst. Nothing. Super stuck. It took all my strength to get it to budge a centimeter, at which point I realize. When I get this off, it’s going to be fucking loud. Twiiiiiiist. Creak. BAM. It’s like a gunshot, and the entire cabin whips around at me, holding a smoking metal canister like a spent cannon shell. My bad
