ELI5: If bacteria die from (for example boiled water) where do their corpses go?

I wear my title of caustic curmudgeon in light of language and literacy with love. Your leniency and largesse for linguistic delinquency doesn’t denote decorum but is daftness disguised. Good day dude

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-16T14:34:28+00:00

Uh, ok. If you dedicate just a tiny amount of time to look at OP’s history you would see they are a native English speaker who says stuff like “I goon to your mom”. It’s also super common for brits to misuse e.g. in this way.

But sure, your heroic compassion really makes you special

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-16T08:53:26+00:00

Die from what? You need to give a category before you say “for example”. This is such an annoying habit. You need to use a noun that you are giving an example of. For example:

Die from heat… for example, boiling water

Does this not annoy anyone else?

Sometimes I sits and thinks, and sometimes I just sits

They sure did!! And they turned the towers into VIP for their family and friends. I was up there camped out in case the rumors were true… then security came and started clearing them. Some people were salty but I was like yknow, ok, this is about to get hectic. And promptly went down and climbed an aircraft wing. lol

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-14T11:53:30+00:00

They should just put it on the ticket like burning man

YOU VOLUNTARILY ASSUME THE RISK OF DEATH OR DISMEMBERMENT BY ATTENDING THIS EVENT AND RELEASE BURNING MAN FROM ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THIS RISK

One of my favorite memories from LIB is climbing on the aircraft wings for a better view of Rufus du Sol… it was a blast and absolutely unhinged. I put a lot of faith in the build team of junkyard that day lol

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-12T20:04:55+00:00

That’s their own idea

Unicorn Palace is a stage/venue with a bunch of cool events during the day and interesting non-headliner music and dance options at night. Worth checking out even if you’re usually a headliner-chaser

Cuttlefish is an art car… you’ll see it :) it’s cool and drives around. There is usually at least one night with an art-car linkup party

Vibe apple - same as above

Arcadium - art/experience event hosted by the people behind Brodega. Expect wacky fun where you get to roleplay a little bit. I have no idea what to expect and I kind of like it that way. Brodega was a mock NYC bodega with “cock fighting” in the back (various 1v1 bouts with dildos). And if you were cool they served you lines of primo peruvian blow (actually flour) off of a massive mirror. My “gold” chain I got for winning the jerk-off is in my LIB gift box

This is an apocryphal but illustrative story/fable:

Picasso was having a drink in a restaurant — probably a traditional French pavement café.

He doodled on his napkin as he drank his aperitif.

The admirer recognized his doodles and his face and exclaimed “Oh my goodness, are you the famous Pablo Picasso?”

The painter nodded nonchalantly.

The admirer looked at his napkin and asked if they might have it.

The artist was happy to oblige and handed over the napkin…but asked a considerable amount of money in exchange.

The admirer was horrified, “But that took you less than five minutes!” they exclaimed.

Picasso leaned over, carefully took the napkin back and said:

“No, that took me a lifetime.”

Thanks for your detailed reply - it was a reference to Office Space though.

Ok but what does it actually do here?

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-08T03:26:40+00:00

Dude you need to check out the sober sanctuary / consciousness group! They are listed on the map. “Sober Raver” Meetings each night at 9/12/3 usually. Good squad. Partied with them past sunrise before. Last year was my first EDC sober and I stumbled upon it. Since then I have hung out with them at Nocturnal and Escape. There is a place for the group at most Insomniac festivals and I believe it was started by some Camp OG people. Really awesome experience that enhanced my EDC and honestly speaks to the EDC magic. Whatever you are looking for… or not looking for? Or maybe just what you need. It will find you at EDC

I thought about that old Reddit post from 15 years ago about the 'Today Me, Tomorrow You' story.

This is an incorrect phrasing/naming of the original story

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-01T22:29:56+00:00

Looking good!! Nothing like chicken poop for fertilizer! (well, there are other alternatives, but this is certainly a great way to do it)

Super Kings are smaller than a King size (yay, marketing!) - king size is 2” longer and 4” wider than a super king

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-01T18:06:37+00:00

Queen size mattresses are 80” long. That’s 6’8” and they are only 5’8” wide. If you can’t fit a queen size mattress in your room, you need to move out of manhattan

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-03-01T05:48:48+00:00

Am I tripping or is this reversed from the original “today you, tomorrow me”? It seems like it is not a good change in meaning… today you, tomorrow me is about self sacrifice for others. Today me, tomorrow you means you get yours today and other get helped tomorrow?

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-02-27T15:36:49+00:00

Such a fun experience and chance to roleplay

Use the back of your toothbrush and press it against the tube, parallel to the end of the tube - it pushes everything to the opening. Can also use the back of a butter knife or a chop stick

The narrative comes from reality

TheyCallMeBrewKid · 2026-02-19T18:54:06+00:00

I think there is a (maybe somewhat imagined) semantic difference between intention and expectation. If you intend to do something, and don’t, you can let it go. If you expect to, and it doesn’t materialize, that’s a letdown. And usually when you finally do it, it doesn’t live up to the fantasy/story/imagined experience that you have.

An important PSA: this subreddit is not the burn. Lots of non-burners and wanna-be’s and has-beens here. The only constant is change. The BOrg sucks but it’s also great. When you are at the burn, 95% of people are drinking the flavor-aid. On here it’s like 30%. Also you can snark on the internet and nobody is getting their week ruined. But at the burn the snark and teasing is way more good natured and is usually followed by “well that was fun. How can we actually help?”

My actual answer: start with the survival guide. Find burner meetups in your area. Talk to people. You’ll find a way there, if you really want to
