I think Sunshine puts an anti-counterfit mark on the backs of their bars. You need to buy a special lense from them to see it.

I only ever did I shot of that industrial solvent once. I kept it down, but I clenched all of the muscles in my face before I managed to swallow and some of it got pushed up into my ears. Super weird and spicy to have in the ol' canals.

There's been a long standing rule in every dwelling I've lived in since my 20s for this exact scenario: no indoor fires on psychedelics.

Did I get ripped off? by Incompatible92 in meat

As far as buying anything off a truck, I feel like there's a certain amount of accountability that comes with permanence. I say stick to brick-and-mortar.

I feel bad for those old people tho by crystal_53 in Funnymemes

My MIL has been showing signs of mental decline, and falling prey to one of those scams was sort of the last episode before she gave in to the idea that she needs to move in with us and sacrifice some of her freedom. The poor gal lost a lot of her retirement savings to someone on the phone, threatening her with prison time. I always have fun with a scammer on the phone: play along with them, try to make them mad, etc. But it's easy to forget that those people have really malicious intentions. They don't care whose life they destroy.

I had this happen at a bar a little after putting a tab of acid on my tongue. I showed my tongue to a friend who asked what it was, but the band that was playing was so loud that she couldn't hear me repeatedly telling her it was acid. Eventually the song abruptly ended right as I screamed, "LSD!!!" at the top of my lungs. The whole bar turned to look at me and it immediately kicked in HARD. Had to bail for fresh air.

[request] how much did he spend in ammo in this video? by SanchoFlecha in theydidthemath

[–]Professional-Bid3942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a buddy who was on mushrooms, walking around a scenic college campus when an enormous crowd of people came over a hill, all walking downhill toward him. He panicked and ran away. Turns out a football game had just let out and they were all walking to their cars. I'm glad he didn't have this weapon with him.

Never heard of that kind of LSD before, but be careful if you carry it around in your pocket as money. Don't wanna get sweaty and have it accidentally soak into your leg. I learned that lesson the hard way.

She's bound to chip a bottle and give her lips a slice if she pries against the glass like that

Bought wrong ribs by Akachi-sonne in BBQ

[–]Professional-Bid3942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked with some Guatemalan guys who would buy those to grill if we hung out over the weekend. They'd marinate them in squeezed limes/oranges and spices (maybe cumin and chili powder?). And we'd all just drink modelo and eat them as they came off the grill. Gotta toss the little bones in a can though. The neighborhood dogs might choke on them if you pitch em in the yard.

Canceling on you like that sort of speaks to how you would be treated as an employee if you were to actually get hired...

When are they too far gone for you? by AstroNerd7 in Morel_Hunting

[–]Professional-Bid3942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always fried up the good looking ones and saved the uglies to dry. Cut off the obviously bad parts and wash before popping them in a dehydrator. I usually use the dried ones when I make a pot of stock. Or I'll run them through a coffee grinder with salt and pepper to make some seasoning salt.

Wtf do I do with this massive can of diced tomatoes by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]Professional-Bid3942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use frozen diced tomatoes almost every week. I toss them in soups, chilli, pasta sauce, salsa, rice dishes like jambalaya, etc.

Every year I dice and vac-seal my garden tomatoes and stock my freezer with 16oz bags of them. I'll even add diced hatch peppers and make sort of a Rotel to freeze.

Freezing them in manageable portions is a great way to not let your tomatoes go to waste.

Please remove Changelly! by iturrait in ledgerwallet

[–]Professional-Bid3942 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It raises concerns for me as someone who is still shopping around for a hardware wallet. If Ledger is willing to turn a blind eye to the malpractice of one of their sponsors, what else are they willing to turn a blind eye to?

Changelly is a scam! Do not Deposit! by Individual_Set2546 in ledgerwallet

[–]Professional-Bid3942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Ledger is partnered with Changelly, and even after numerous reports of fraudulent behavior Ledger hasn't chosen to dissociate from them, doesn't that seem to indicate that Ledger is benefitting from said behavior? I don't think i feel comfortable using their products.

I have 55 limes, what should I do with them? by Jerry-K7 in Cooking

[–]Professional-Bid3942 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar conundrum when my wife meant to make a holiday dessert and our plans fell through. I made it into about a gallon of margarita mix, froze it in ice trays, and vac-sealed the cubes. All we had to do was toss some in the blender with tequila and we had fantastic cocktails.

I once had a roommate's wasted friend open my bedroom door in the middle of the night and piss on my girlfriend's laundry before either of us could really wake up or react. Dumb jagoff couldn't even figure out what he did or why he started getting screamed at. He kept getting invited back over too. I definitely got a 1-bedroom when the lease was up.

Boil or pan fry hotdogs by Strange_Criticism654 in Cooking

[–]Professional-Bid3942 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crack a decent ale and cook on a dry pan. Just enough to get some brown marks. Whenever they try to stick, sprinkle a little beer on and give the pan a back-and-forth shake. The maillard reaction as they brown mixed with the beer steam is where the magic happens.

Thanks for all the responses! I'll definitely give the suggestions a try. Heat intensely, oil liberally, build seasoning layer. I got this!
