I remember my first encounter with black ice, my car not stopping, the abs kicking my foot via the pedal, good thing I wasn't moving particularly fast - only 15km/h
Ps: when dealing with ice of any kind maintain rolling of the tires at all times, because as soon as the tires slip all semblance of control is lost

okay so let me get this straight.....you choose to claim that something is false because YOU have an opinion on a single object. fun fact, being sensitive to bicarb soda is very much a thing and I react to even the smallest amounts. reason I couldn't taste it? other flavours were overpowering it. I guess next time I need to include a 2 hour audio plus 20 pictures and a flavour sample?

I should also mention, while I don’t like going I still go because I know she likes it. In the past month we’ve gone bar hopping 3 times, it would have been four if not for this incident. And she’s only come over once in the past 6 months.

Osmosis is objective physics and baking soda objectively tastes bad.
Edit: but if your claim is that you're too stupid to recognize that there's an ungodly amount of baking soda in something that should have none, then okay. You're either very very stupid or lying.

Well, we grew close when I was living in the dorms. We just enjoyed each other’s company and helped with each other’s issues. She called me several times when her (now ex) was “causing harm” and I would rush over to save her. But she would get mad at me for not liking him after. On the flip side, when I moved out of the dorm, my neighbors were unalived and she let me, my partner and our pets stay with her until the person was caught. We both have estranged mothers. But we started growing apart because I stopped wanting to go to bars and parties. She says my reasons aren’t good enough “excuses” and I got really frustrated with that. So Friday was just the cherry on top

I beg of you to tell me exactly what is hard to believe about being sensitive to something and then experiencing a reaction to that thing. go on.

unfortunately I'm extremely sensitive to it and couldn't taste it until it was too late

Baking soda? Wouldn't that make them taste so bad you couldn't eat enough of them to make you sick? I've dissolved baking soda in water for really bad indigestion-- like more than twice the recommended amount, and didn't get diarrhea from it.

I know you refer to her as your "bestie" but I'm curious where you rank on her totem pole. It sounds like you two have very different likes and dislikes. She likes to party, you don't. She likes crowds, you don't. She thinks hanging out with you at your place is boring. I get the impression that you value her friendship more than she does yours?

You did not run a red light on accident since you admit to speeding. You then hit a pole and was it damaged? If so then you leaving the scene of an accident and you damaged a light pole as well.
Any parts of your car missing? If so then they might be able to find out. Also someone else could have taken pics or photos and reported you to the police.
The good part is you now dont have a car so everyone else is safe for the time being.

This made me glad I'm allergic to peas. Sorry about the butt lava.

If you bump a shopping cart and leave, you've committed hit and run.
You left the scene of an accident that most certainly caused property damage so you could be in trouble both on the civil and criminal side if you're located.

I feel like you kinda did when you said the hitting of the pole was CAUSED by them yelling at you, not by anything you were doing…
You did take blame on running the red light though, sorta.

Ok, so it looks like they should be normal tapioca pearls. So you can try a stove boil and strain, then rinse in cold water to stop the cooking and get some of the starch off. Try adding about half as much milk tea powder to either warm milk, or a mix of fresh brewed tea and milk. That'll probably help significantly.

thank you i’ll keep that in mind and possibly try again tmr when i get home lol ! but the brand is j-basket
RollerRocketScience t1_j0o88em wrote
Ok, so if the pearls are hard, you can boil them on the stove to make them chewy instead of microwaving. Basically you dump them in boiling water and then when they float instead of sinking they're almost ready. What's the kit?
