Campbell's makes a ghost pepper chicken noodle soup. We call it "The Soup of Suffering." Once I prepared one can of Soup of Suffering with a second can of regular soup, and added a mess of hardtack to it.

It was exactly as way too spicy in this form as it is all on its own.

In Illinois, at least, your motorcycle has to be 150cc to ride on the interstate. A Chinese GY6 scooter might be able to do 50MPH with a tailwind. You'd get killed on the interstate on one of those, yet, fully legal to do it.

“But you know what I would do if there is a shark or you get electrocuted? I’ll take electrocution every single time. I’m not getting near the shark.”

Hear me out: Put Trump in a leaky electric boat in shark-infested waters. For science.

Edit: He's still painted black from last time, so it's harder for the sharks to see him.

At the tail end of last week, Microsoft finally admitted – as it pulled 24H2 from the Release Preview Channel – that the Recall feature, which takes a snapshot of whatever is on the user's screen every few seconds, was going to need some changes before the preview ships on June 18.

Or like the one at my house, takes up a roost in a hanging flowerpot and refuses to leave even when you take the flowerpot down to do planting.

(Yes, this is happening right now, no we did not disturb mama bird's nest, no need to send in the feds.)

What are these "people" to which you refer?

Fucking' pinko lefty potatoes.

Any time I try to think as stupidly as so many people apparently do, I get a MAGAraine.

That's because the inside of a raw egg is soft, and the inside of a raw potato is hard. Boiling water brings them both to a similar texture.

Edit: Not to mention that the inside of an egg is mainly protein, while the inside of a potato is mainly starch and cell membranes. Heat causes proteins to tighten, and causes starches and cell membranes to break down.

The effects of the environment on each of these things have everything to do with what the things are.

After you get too far away signal just drops, if you're willing to put up with higher noise level range of normal AM radio is basically global

This depends very highly on the condition of the ionosphere and its ability to reflect the signal. This doesn't make its useful range global, even if you can pick up very distant broadcasts occasionally.

I'll never stop complaining ~~about Y axis that don't start at zero.~~

~~If that means the change isn't noticable, then the change isn't noticable.~~

To be fair, I mainly commented above to use the phrase "Onionton Window."
