  • Well, at least you didn't pass it on. Some small satisfaction can be had at the end of a shit day if you can go to sleep knowing you didn't screw someone else to make up for your bad luck. I think we are at our worst when we feel we have been wronged by fate. C/O "And beer tastes better when you're pissed off"
  • Wow I knew about the speed, but the rest is news to me. It never fails to amaze me how someone who had such a huge effect on the world became such a sucker for things like teutonic shamanism, and dubious drugs. C/O "No, we will not be playing fluffy bunny meets the cannoneer tonight Adolf, the vile wind that issues from…
  • The product from using canabutter is more aesthetically pleasing, and the taste is better, but I just ran off a batch of some killer oat squares, so I'll pass on the method. I used a bagged oat muffin mix, one that was complete and required just water. I wanted them dense and flat, with a lot of fiber, so I added some…
  • Don't worry, at least not till you have a good reason to. I give you considerable respect for having the brains to bring it to the attention of your doc, you have passed a Darwinian test, of sorts. Is it right on one of your boys, or just your sack? If it is just under the skin it is likely a small cyst, basically a sealed…
  • I think what you crack the egg on is very important too. If you use a flat surface, you will create an oval shaped fracture on the shell, increasing the odds that a chunk of shell will drop with the egg. If you use too sharp a surface you have the same problem, only with a smaller piece of shell. Something with a tight but…
  • Asian sesame salad dressing. A good version has been defying me for a while now. I have tried sesame/hoi-sin based vinaigrette (hoi-sin is an awesome emulsifier, stuff never separates), I have tried running freshly toasted sesame seeds through a spice grinder and adding them to a basic rice vinaigrette, this was better.…
  • That seems very familiar, I think you said exactly the same thing when I was offline for a while the last time. +3 for consistency. To be honest, I have trouble accepting the diagnosis. I did have a somewhat fucked up childhood, but it is nothing compared to what some friends of mine had. I was never raped, beaten, or…
  • Jah, that fucking levamisole. I have heard what that shit does to people who are sensitive to it, skin lesions, allergic reactions, nasty, and it is in the product from the first press. I am not really sure about that acetone wash, most of the common cutting agents like glucose or manitol are not soluble in non polar…
  • LOL, fuckin' ell. I actually did both of these, I went on a 5 day tear where I was either drunk enough to sleep, or so tired the bed didn't bug me, I gave it up because my work was suffering. So I bought an inflatable mattress and threw it in the spare room, and for a couple of nights I managed to get some good snooze…
  • Third Rock; Good on ya! Both myself and my girlfriend are taking our Lvl1 and Lvl2 first aid courses next month, for a lot of reasons, one of which is to volunteer with St. Johns first aid at public events. I intend to volunteer as a human cookbook for the living books program at the new library down the street, as well.…
  • Odd that you should mention sleeping on my front, I have started doing this again, on softer mattresses it made my lower back hurt, but on the marble slab it's not bad. Ah well, a hard bed, good sex, a challenging job, a lack of hard narcotics, life is better, more sustainable, and somewhat bland, I think I might take up…
  • I did several CWE extractions on OTC codeine, 8mg codeine, 30mg caffeine, 100mg APAP. This is the only form of OTC codeine available in Canada, and it has a ton of stuff in it with the same solubility as the codeine. I got it down to a pretty fine art, but the end product still made your heart beat mad bats, so much…
  • Thanks for that one, I had always wondered if there was a way to increase the bioavailability of codeine
  • Looks like something from a 70's Expo, holy fuck what a dump. This is what happens when nobody has the balls to tell a rich guy he is being an idiot.
  • I have tried CWE with 8mg codeine, almost not worth it, too much caffeine, and other crap. 30mg is definitely enough to play with, 3-4 refined with some cold water, and a couple of benzo's and you will be nodding like a hobo on holiday, I would half that dose if you want to make sure you live.
  • Apartment chemistry, sounds like fun, I am not up on the most recent methods, but I can offer a little advice; Evaping solvents in an apartment is dangerous, I was making some oil using simple iso alcohol once and the fumes were detected in another unit, resulting in a visit from the local fire department. Nothing like…
  • Yeah, those are good nights, two or three guys really making each dish perfect, the type of care that you just can't put in when you're getting raped. Some fancy garnishes, some extra time, some really happy customers. Unfortunately if I caught someone doing this now I would have to urge him to stick to the standard…
  • TDR, Psychotogen, take it outside please. ITT, bits of tasty goodness wrapped in a re-purposed Chinese pasta and deep fried.
  • LOL, thanks for showing up dude, was that Jake?
  • KEEP IT RELEVANT, COCKSUCKERS! ANGRY COOK!
  • Good thread, wrong place. Get a book called "The Audobon Guide to Wild Mushrooms", they tell the straight dope about what is edible, poisonous, or psychedelic. There is no sure way to tell unless you are very well informed. I have picked a lot of shrooms for culinary purposes, but despite living in an area where shrooms of…
  • Nice, I love crab rangoons, but I make little logs. Those wonton wrappers are the shit, they are good for so many things, a nice convenient pasta product that works boiled or fried. You are a little right about the fact that people seldom follow methods posted here, but they do add to the collective content of the site,…
  • Ditto. A nice basic puree soup with lots of room for creativity, thanks for the method!
  • Right on, I have met a ton of vegans that had shitty diets, coconut milk was the culprit in a lot of them, and a lack of variety. For refried beans, my latest kick is adding pickled garlic, and I like black beans because they don't look so nasty. As for the skins and chewy bits, soaking the beans before cooking will help,…
  • I like it nuked waaaayyyy too long, till the sauce almost becomes a glaze, and the pastas kinda chewy. Funny how a lot of cooks eat shit food rather than cook for themselves when they get home, but I don't think carpenters want to come home and bang up a shed in the back yard after work either. I like to buy those little…
  • Comes with own sauce, no heating required, may be less filling in cold weather. Nasty, BK, nasty.
  • There seem to be a lot of "relaxation" drinks around these days, I have read the labels on a bunch and the active ingredients are usually L-theanine and GABA, both are neurotransmitters, and both are related to amino acids in structure. Most also contained sugar, which seems silly, and one contained caffeine. I don't think…
  • Very true, I had a friend that worked for a mattress factory, they would do a run of a thousand or so mattresses, then sew different labels onto them for different clients. in the end, the price would vary by as much as 50% for the same product. I dig Tim Hortons coffee, because they kick you out of Canada if you don't. I…
  • What an odd necro. Interesting to read what I wrote, sure felt right then. I am neck deep in kitchen again, but now that I'm actually getting somewhere It's not so bad.
  • Pho and salad rolls.
  • Well, I still haven't used since I decided to lay it down. But the cravings pop up in the oddest places, and maybe because of the importance smell has is my day to day professional and personal life, it is usually a smell that triggers a want to use again. Quitting smoking is much harder, you can't make it more difficult…
  • If I did have some kind of an afterlife, I would hope for something that would give me the option of hanging around a bit before I moved on, or at least extend some tendril of influence to the physical plane. I would like to look after those I left behind, and help out the cooks. In fact spending a few hundred years as a…
  • Interesting article, but please start such posts with something personal like why you feel it is relevant, and your opinions regarding the content. I like that you have taken an interest in OI, but info is available everywhere, and what makes totse great is user content. I encourage you to continue to contribute, but one…
  • Your content is appreciated, but please don't take credit for copypasta as your own work. Cool thread though, the bit about mushrooms is crap, you need a proper mushroom guide to pick wild mushrooms, I recommend "The Audobon Guide to Wild Mushrooms". I have eaten many cherry pits too, with no ill effects. There is a bit of…
  • That's cool, we used to dumpster dive the bin outside the local milk bottling plant in the winter for expired ice cream, probably not the brightest move, but when you're 12 free ice cream is worth the risk.
  • Iso alcohol would be good too, but it might harm the finish if it is a wood pipe.
  • Cool, I found frying the heck out of that veggie ground beef and putting it in tomato sauce of some kind to be pretty good for veggie food.
  • I have usually gone more for effect than taste when it comes to both tobacco and alcohol, but I see the days coming where if I continue to use either, it will be in a way that is more appreciative to what both bring to the table by way of taste and social ritual. So a couple of questions regarding pipes and pipe tobacco;…
  • In some places they bury suicides at crossroads, so those who had the strength to go on walk over them every day. Ride the ride, no sense getting off until it stops.
  • Great minds think alike, fools seldom differ, pretty much a toss up. As for the idea of cryonics, it would be useless without some way to record the quantum state and energy potential of the brain before death. A person can be dead for quite a while without any information being lost, but information in the brain is stored…
  • :hai::fap: MANHOOD!!
  • This guy is looking for people to sit around a fire, jack up speed, and masturbate while listening to Nickleback. Wow. It's moments like this that I realize I am actually rather sane and normal. I suspect it is real too, and have no doubt he gets responses. I also have no doubt he waits till the circle of iron fisted…
  • So suck it up. If you had read a little more carefully, you would have seen that the job and the girlfriend are the reasons why I'm putting it down. Hell yeah I can get away with a lot of shit because I can always get up and still be half assed good to go, but if it goes too far, I step on it. I hope the fact that I'm…
  • Sweet ass tits! By all means, lets make with the Radar Love! I gotta figure out something really good for this one.
  • Annoying, I could smell it constantly, even in food. How horseradish can smell like crack is beyond me, but when I tossed a few dip cups with traces of horseradish on them into the dishwasher, the steam that came out smelled like crack to me. Bitchy, cold, and my sense of humor took a turn for the very unfunny. I am going…
  • Boursin is my favorite processed cheese, the black pepper one is great. I just got some cheese from the little grocery section at Ikea, it is called 'grandfathers snap cheese' or something with way too many consonants. It is very good, well aged, and very sharp, it would make a great addition to a blend of cheeses for…
  • I have worked shifts I barely remember, I'm not bad when juiced, but I avoid it these days.
