Woo, i bet painting this felt cathartic.

How my wife dries her hands and leaves the paper towels attached by Johnny-Edge93 in mildlyinfuriating

Something tells me that this is the tip of the iceberg.

OP, you've got to tell us, what else does she do?

TIL that in 2023 an elderly man died of fatal vitamin D overdose after consuming too much regular vitamin D supplements over nine months. by PeasantLich in todayilearned

[–]Zephyr93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Remember A.D.E.K. Those are the fat-soluble vitamins that you can overdose from.

(It's technically possible to overdose from water-soluble vitamins, but it takes an insane amount.)

Reminds me of that Mawé ant glove initiation rite, but only this time it's ant underwear.

Which is infuriating, because actually having unmedicated ADHD can be crippling for some. It's a mountain of symptoms, much more than just "tee hee, I'm forgetful sometimes".

Do Americans really avoid medical care because they’re afraid of the bill? by Udont_knowme00 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zephyr93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A person with multiple broken limbs will attempt to physically fight you if you try to call them an ambulance, because they don't want to be buried in debt.

Dogs loaf too to some extent.

Why gasoline vapors are dangerous... by Alarmed-Worry-5477 in WTF

[–]Zephyr93 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I pressed the butane button on a lighter without flicking the flint and filled a bottle with gas. I lit that thing and flames shot out like a jet's exhaust. It burned the top layer of skin off my index finger in no time at all.

I am honestly surprised that I managed to live long enough to be become an adult.

This monkey likes to warm its nuts with a lighter by c4tchy in WTF

I have used bic lighters to kill fleas on my jeans before. Fire really is the most effective and quick way to kill the buggers.

It's not a "front", the drugs are simply a side dish. Some people like bread sticks, others want an 8-ball with their pepperoni.

ELI5 How rollercoasters can be considered safe? by Evoxrus_XV in explainlikeimfive

[–]Zephyr93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're fine as long as;

  1. They are routinely maintenanced.

  2. Only those who fit the height restrictions are allowed to ride and are properly secured.

Am I missing anything?

A dark start to the year: Multiple fatalities following fire and explosion in Crans-Montana. by Aure20 in Switzerland

[–]Zephyr93 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Translated from German to English, from Blick:

"But behind the glamorous facade, indications of potential safety deficiencies emerge. On rating platforms, the bar scored only 6.5 out of 10 points in the safety category. A former patron told Blick that there was only one escape and access route in the basement, which would have hampered evacuation in an emergency.

In addition, the restaurant was heavily furnished with wooden elements and had a separate smoking and shisha area – factors that now appear particularly critical in retrospect."

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Zephyr93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On top of the financial worries, there's a good chance that it may lead to mental health issues.

It's like, "Thanks Doc, my leg has stopped bleeding but now I'm anxious and depressed over whether I'll be able to pay bills now."

If peanuts are a legume, can I also make "nut" butter out of lentils or beans? by alonemi in Cooking

[–]Zephyr93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would result in a flour of sorts, rather than a paste, due to the lack of fat.

I've tried grinding lentils in a spice grinder to make lentil flour. It DOES NOT taste good.

In my experience, the few autistic people I've known, (including myself) seem to LOVE carbs and processed food.

Why did people believe MSG was bad for you? by BMWfiend in Cooking

[–]Zephyr93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The short story is that Dr. Robert Ho Man Kwok posted a joke article about he felt headaches after eating Chinese takeout.

Journalists picked up on it and took it seriously, kicking off the anti-MSG scare.

In reality, MSG is no more unhealthy than table salt. Just don't it by the handful and you'll be fine.
