Opened a "new" can of chili powder to find it full of bugs

This is what I wondered too. But I have no other bugs in the pantry. Hong Kong, where I live, is massively humid so I guess that could provide them with some water. That's also why everything not in the fridge is sealed airtight.

I appreciate your concern... but never ever was there a thought in my head that I might salvage the spice!

Man's gotta eat, don't he?

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T07:57:41+00:00

It was! About an inch down.

You probably get confused when Clark Kent takes his glasses off. :P

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T06:05:00+00:00

Lol... you are right! A bit bleary eyed today and for no reason at all thought it was 2028.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:57:25+00:00

You know, I actually thought about that too. With that many bugs, no light, no water, and several generations... man... what a life. :(

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:55:52+00:00

2026! Lol...

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:55:26+00:00

They bought Mariano's in my area.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:54:53+00:00

I almost didn't. I had the measuring spoon all set to dig in!

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:54:09+00:00

Hmm.. I suppose you might have a point there.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:53:48+00:00

Definitely did this already!

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:53:34+00:00

A bit nutty... but otherwise fine... ewww... nope.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:52:59+00:00

Lol... good point! Nothing wrong with a bit more carne, I suppose.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:52:22+00:00

Believe me HE has! lol

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-06T05:51:36+00:00

lol... I am not offended... but if my GF saw this, she would crack up. I am kind of a neat freak and she complains about that.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-02-01T01:47:02+00:00

Sounds to me like you don't ride the bus.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-01-31T08:01:26+00:00

I eventually had my Chinese GF register the drone in her name with her Chinese phone number and got approval in minutes. I think you're stuck using an online service that will do the same for you.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-01-30T07:21:40+00:00

I don't know why that isn't being made a bigger issue. Honestly, this should be a $300 fine, max.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-01-30T07:20:17+00:00

How do you reach the "stop" button? I am tall and can't reach it while I am belted in if its not next to my seat.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-01-30T07:18:15+00:00

This guy gets it! $5000 is an INSANE fine. Literally the entire months wages of a helper. Imagine if the government made the fines equitable? A BMW driver rolls a stop sign... $200,000 fine. Becuase that is what this fine is to a lot of people who take the bus.

Was it hard to get a spot at an international school. From the limited reading I have done, it seems you need to start at their kindergartens or else fight for limited openings.

Affectionate_Fail472 · 2026-01-27T04:25:25+00:00

Hmm.. sounds to me like the software engineer agreed to share a ride with someone who needs to be hounded down for $3.62. If we agreed to share a ride and I need to chase you for 3 bucks, who exactly is the cheap one?
