    As Tom Lehrer said, "Base 8 is like Base 10, really... if you're missing 2 fingers."

    :D Does your cat byte?

    If each joke is a gigglebit then wouldn't 8 billion gigglebits be a gigglebyte?

    Or do people just not find base 8 math funny anymore?


    Cat gif! Must --- not --- press --- 'like'.

    Too late...

    Don't most of those artists already appeal mostly to that generation...

    @LadyRhian , I shared your music ones with my musician friends on Facebook. Thanks for brightening up a rainy day with a smile. :)
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    I'm glad you liked it. :)

    Today while preparing dinner, my dad came across some mystery peppers from the community garden. He can't stand anything spicy, and my love of Jalapenos (I can't handle anything hotter) makes me the best candidate to test something that could be spicy. So I volunteered to test it and he cut off a, shall we say GENEROUS, slice. Turns out it was a Habanero. Half an hour later, I can feel the inside of my mouth again.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @ThacoBell OW! I feel your pain. When I went out to a place called Mama Buddha in NYC with a friend of mine, I ordered General Tso's Chicken. And it came with these cute little red peppers in it. To paraphrase Aladdin. "Teeny Tiny Peppers- AWESOME COSMIC HURTING!"

    These ones: image

    I really like eating spicy food. But I almost never do, because the aftermath

    just

    isn't

    worth it.
  • ThacoBellThacoBell Member Posts: 12,235
    NEVER trust tiny peppers. On a related note, I have a powerful weakness for spicy chicken sandwiches.
  • LadyRhianLadyRhian Member Posts: 14,694
    @semiticgod To quote a book I read once. "Napalm shits"

    Burns just as bad going out as it did on the way in.

    OWowowowowowowowowow....

    A lot of people who do these extreme food challenges or professional eating of hot things force themselves to vomit afterward so that they don't have to deal with... the aftermath.
  • FinneousPJFinneousPJ Member Posts: 6,455
    Isn't that just as bad though
  • voidofopinionvoidofopinion Member, Moderator Posts: 1,248
    Well, its already burned its way through that piping. Why make it do the other leg of the journey?
  • ThacoBellThacoBell Member Posts: 12,235
    Things burn MUCH WORSE coming back up than going down. I'd rather deal with the napalm.

    I love spicy food. Everytime I get my hands on a new kind of pepper or hot sauce I always test it out by either straight up eating a whole damn pepper, or eating a bit of the sauce by itself.
    This is not a smart thing to do, and 90% of the time I end up regreting it. Don't be a dumbass like I am.

    Just this past Saturday, my lovely girlfriend got me a special sauce made with Piri-Piri peppers, and I can honestly say it's the hottest damn thing I've ever experienced in my life. I ate a drop of it and I wanted to die LOL.

    I've wanted to try a Carolina Reaper for ages, but they're pretty much impossible to get in my country without spending a ton of money.

    @ThacoBell Oh man, I've never eaten a habanero pepper but I've eaten habanero sauce and it was hot. I feel for you, specially if you can't handle anything hotter than jalapeños.

    @LadyRhian Those look like Malagueta peppers, though there's so many varieties of peppers that one can't really be sure by looks alone.
    If they are though, they're pretty good. They're hot, but not the it-feels-like-i'm-eating-napalm kind of hot.

    Do I smell a forum poll coming up? or out...

    Ps: The above is also a valid entry in the “10 words about BG2 anniversary contest if you havent posted one yet

    Peppers are weird, they are DELICIOUS but man do they burn.
  • Dev6Dev6 Member Posts: 721
    Poor peppers... They developed hotness as a defense mechanism so they wouldn't get eaten. Then lo and behold, humans come along and they eat them because they're hot.

    When eating extremely hot peppers have this page in mind.

    And if you're insane enough try some CaJohns Black Mamba 6... this thing scores 6 million Scoville Units... Habanero is in the 100,000-350,000 range depending how it's prepared....

    ...I can't help but ask myself if it's even edible at that point.
