   Hottest/Spiciest item you've ever had? 1 2

   Been watching this Youtube series called Hot Ones where some dude interviews comics and celebs while eating hot wings that run from simple Sriracha to ghost pepper/reaper pepper levels. Went to Buffalo Wild Wings since I was craving wings and had that blazin' sauce that is their hottest. That shit should be illegal or for cleaning the inside of an oven. I had that thing happen where it tasted good (some overly hot stuff has that "this is going to burn like shit" smell and taste), but then 15 seconds later it kicks in and everything from watery eyes, super flushed skin, and legit sweats while the inside of the mouth almost goes numb with fire. There's literally no nee…

   Who takes them, what do you take, what are the benefits, and what are the tricks/recipes? I just started taking vitamin D and Turmeric. I'm also trying to figure out the whole coconut oil thing. I have been mixing liquid Turmeric into my tea, but recently heard that I need either pepper or some sort of fat to activate it. I tried doing a half teaspoon of coconut oil in the tea, but that was gross a ****. Any suggestions?

    What celebrities have you seen while traveling through an airport? I've seen... Josh Lucas and he was with his now ex-wife - Jessica Ciencin Henriquez Erik Estrada Bill Walton Jeff Hornacek Sugar Ray Leonard - He was on the same flight as me... when I walked past him in first class, I said "Hey Champ!" and he gave me fist pump. I thought I'd limit it to the airport... but you guys do what you want to do (like you wouldn't anyway)...

    Now that my daughter knows how to ride a bike, my wife and I are looking at getting bikes so we can all ride as a family a few times a week. We would just be riding them on the local trail and maybe on the side streets around here. No rugged terrain or steep inclines, etc. We aren't looking to spend much, maybe $300 each. The local Dicks has a couple different Nishiki and Diamondbacks in that price range. Just curious what everyone thinks, if they have a preference or anything they suggest avoiding. I am more interested in durability and comfort than lightness or number of gears, ruggedness, etc. I have owned several bikes in the past and probably the two …

    Anyone ever try this? Got an absolute steal and picked up the Anova precision cooker from Target for $50 (normally a $200 item). Brand new in the box still. Tried it last night for the first time and cooked the best steak of my life. Picked up a couple of prime rib-eye cap steaks from Costco (always wanted to try those, never had them), seasoned them with some coarse salt, fresh cracked pepper and fresh thyme. Stuck them in a foodsaver bag, dropped them in a stockpot with the Anova cooker at 129 degrees for 2 hours (probably could have gone a degree or two higher, they turned out a little closer to rare than medium rare). Since they come out of the bag after 2 h…

    Make a wish, and the next person grants your wish but it has a negative twist. FOR EXAMPLE: Person A: I wish the Angels would finally make the playoffs. Person B: Your wish is granted! The Angels finally make the playoffs ... one year after you die. I'll start: I wish gas prices would go back down to $3 per gallon tomorrow and for the rest of all time.

    So of you fellas out there that made the huge mistake of not wearing a Jimmy or pulling out, what consolation prize of a day are you expecting tomorrow? For me I think I get to sleep in until 7:30 and then listen to my kids fight and whine until I let them go in the pool at like 11. After we get in the pool I’ll put on some cool tunes on the BT and think this is a fun day and then my older kid will try to drown the younger one at about 11:15 and there will be lots of yelling and everyone will have to exit the pool and dry off (but not before the puppy who has been swimming and is soaking wet gets past the screen door and ruins the wood floors and couch). …

    I’ve been on this forum for a long time (since 08 at least) and mostly just lurk. Posted a bit way back when but busy jobs, kids etc. kept my from being as active as I’d like. I moved to Hawaii, Lanai specifically, in November and find myself with more time to be an active member. Any other Halo fans living in the islands on here? I can’t say enough about the lifestyle and quality of life here. I went from busting my ass and never having enough time to even breathe to a much slower, more humane life. So far, so good:)

    It seems like every day I'm going back to rewipe after shitting. And I wipe until there's blood most times. How does this happen? I'll get up and my ass feels like it popped a grease balloon. It's nasty and then I'll have to wipe like 5-6 times to get clean. I'm getting frustrated.

    About 3 months ago (maybe 4 now), I had my landscape guy put in new sod. Marathon 2. Brought home a new puppy... than another... Obvious pee stains and some dead spots... Thats not all. Whole lawn died within 2-3 months. All of it. The dogs killed some of it. But its either my gardner cut it too low too soon. Or i overwatered. Or i fertilized too soon. Going to try St Augustine sod next. Anyone have any ecoerience? I think its tougher so the dogs wont kill it as fast. Fake grass would probably make more sense. But i paid my guy to out in sprinklers... and i think it gets too hot for dogs... so gotta try real grass at least one more time

    I will be retiring from state service in order to pursue a different professional opportunity. After 21 years, I will no longer be locked up on the job. It came down to me finally getting sufficiently fed up with the poor management and virtually nonexistent communication in my division and the condescending treatment of facility medical administrators. An APRN who I worked with at DOC got similarly fed up, and he took a job with a hospice company. Said hospice company interviewed me and offered me a job on the spot. My hope is that I can work for these people for 2-3 years and do sufficient damage to my bills (with both Social Security and state retirement coming in) to …
