I definitely do eat on the super spicy side. I've had a bout with The Last Dab Apollo and only had issues with it because I ate it on an empty stomach. Other than that, I had no real issues with it. It was just hot enough for me to feel it a bit.

Indeed. I've still never tried the One Chip Challenge. I don't think I'd handle it as gracefully as Clint from LGR did, but I'd be interested in trying it.

That's more than me. I own one of the Bourne movies on 4 different formats (Blu-ray, DVD, UMD, HD DVD). I've wanted to go deeper than that, but I have way too many hobbies going at once right now.

Hmmm. This might be the rare time where I decide that streaming services aren't the devil for once. I'll have to take stock of my money after WrestleCade.

I swear, you and MJ make BritWres look so interesting. Shame they haven't invented teleportation yet, otherwise I'd be over there to take some of it in.

That I can definitely see, yeah.

Maybe they think scare tactics will cause him to fold. Corporations aren't really run by the smartest people a lot of the time. Just the people with the deepest pockets and the biggest connections.

And what he and his people don't understand (still!) is he's outnumbered. He keeps poking the bear and the bear is getting more and more fearsome and eventually, it'll cost him.
One could say this latest saga with a retired military guy in the Senate is what ultimately costs him.

And that's the depressing part. We thought it was bad already, but it was way worse than we could've ever imagined it being. There's no way to get that glory back either. You aren't getting that toothpaste back in the tube.

I often think about Twitter in general back then and how it was so much more fun pre-pandemic. Seems as soon as the pandemic hit, it started going to shit. Then Musk bought the site and accelerated it into whatever the hell it is now.

Indeed. Plus, I also like to use my hot sauces as a condiment, so if I try to use the superhots like that, even my spice tolerance wouldn't be happy about it.

Ah. That'll definitely do it. I thankfully don't have problems like that, but I don't eat super spicy stuff THAT often. I'll eat lower end sauces on stuff, but I usually save the super spicy stuff for every once in a while at most.

I have not. That sounds like it'd be a fun experience, though. Sweet and heat is easily my favorite thing to balance. My favorite thing to do now is to see what a wing place offers as their hottest sauce and see how much it affects me while it spices out everyone else's nostrils.

This reminds me I need to get another batch of hot sauces from Heatonist as a Christmas gift to myself this year. Some of the latest Hot Ones sauces look great.

Well, I do have some experience with superhot sauces. The only reason I had issues with The Last Dab Apollo was due to eating it on an empty stomach like an idiot. Other than that, it didn't bother me. That chili powder you mentioned might be something for me to try.

I feel like my Dad could have some fun making that since he cooks a lot of different things, usually very well.

And I love that he found his groove over there. Funny how both the Canes and Avs won the Rantanen saga with the Canes getting Stanky and 1sts and the Avs getting Necas while the Stars get a player that can't perform deep in the playoffs and plays overly dirty with a bad attitude.

The Short Big sounds like the nickname you give to a basketball center under 6'6 or something.

And clearly hasn't had legit apple pie either.
