Something I've Been Wondering About...

[chessforlife]

lol!

hey, along these lines. i've often pondered how efficient it would be to have a valve surgically placed entering my stomach, that would allow me to just inject mush that contained optimum health requirements.

of course chicks would be freaked out by a valve on your stomach though.

what do you think about this?

If you're interested in saving money, castrate yourself.

Although I have read that you can add like 15 years to your life by getting castrated. I believe i made a thread or poll about it here months ago.

You know the menthol oil (Albas? Do you have that in NA?) you can buy you put on a hanky to sniff when you got a cold?

Well my grandpa told me he sniffed the oil straight up his nose, and claimed he lost his sense of taste.

Don't know if he was kidding me though, I was quite young at the time. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Could you give us his exact words, taking care to imitate exactly whatever wacky Brit-variant accent he might have possessed?

re: spicy foods, a buddy of mine went into the army, everything was godawful, he spiced up 3 meals a day and now his tongue might as well be plastic wrapped. Everything tastes like paper to him.

Not an epicurean eh? I see the rationale, kind of cold though no?

That being said, I recently was curious if there was some procedure in which I could totally kill my sex drive and become totally unsexual, which would in essence give me an unclouded mind and I could enjoy other things more. Despite their bullsht though, Im far too obessed with women to go through with it.

Again, I see the reasoning, but I think you'd regret it later.

It's South London, similar to East-End Cockney (it's as good as if you're not from London), probably the most notable person you'd know with the accent is Michael Caine. Vinny Jones also.

I'll do my best, but only the opener...

'Allo, Treacle Bollerx, wo' you bin doin? Did eye evah tew you abaht the tiyme eye...


Treacle Bollocks was a term of endearment for small boys when I was growing up.

Most of your sense of taste actually comes from your nose, so the snorting menthol is probably the most likely to work. Eating a steady diet of constant foods won't really kill any taste buds, it will just dull the flavors of less extreme foods. I would think you'd need to keep eating the spices, though, as this doesn't seem like a permanent solution. Something you might want to try is holding your nose while you eat; this won't totally kill your sense of taste, but it might dull it a little bit.

Personally, though, I think tasting good food is worth at least a grand a year.

Let's hope Michael Jackson doesn't read this.

Yeah, because then he might, uh, start molesting children?
