The very many questions-not-worth-their-own-thread question thread XXIV

Well for one thing, NOT choke your family jewels to death, as briefs are wont to do.

Then get briefs that fit. Or wear no underwear. It's surprisingly comfortable.

@caketastydelish: That episode was based on a true story.

Or wear boxers.

 

[Lord Baal]

Or wear boxers.

I wear boxers at night sometimes, if I need to cover the crotch but it's too warm for more clothing. They get thrown away before bed. But boxers are very uncomfortable to wear as underwear. With nothing else (maybe a shirt) they're fine. I don't wear boxers outside because I don't tend to go outside without pants terribly often. YMMV.

I heard that there was a soup nazi in NYC that had to leave after somebody gave away his recipe. Is this true?

People really need to watch more than one episode of Seinfeld.

 

[bhsup]

I heard that cold water can shrivel stuff?!?

"It shrinks?"

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

Why is that?

He's just down the street from me!

I heard that if everything I do is wrong, then doing the opposite must be right. Is that true?

 

[Arakhor]

No, because that would imply a strictly binary state to the world and, as we all know, it's entirely possible to be wrong in many different ways.

 

[rugbyLEAGUEfan]

Dude, you're killing independent Mise!

 

[Borachio]

If everything you do is wrong, then doing the opposite must also be wrong.

 

[SS-18 ICBM]

Why aren't there any 1337 montages of Crusader Kings? Is that series not as MLG as Europa Universalis or Heart of Iron?

 

[Chukchi Husky]

How is it that companies like Coca-Cola can keep their recipes a secret? Wouldn't there be problems if one of the ingredients in their secret recipe caused an allergic reaction in some people?

AFAIK, they release ingredients lists, but not the recipe for combining them and making coca-cola.

 

[Quackers]

This is how you make it:

[Lord Baal]

AFAIK, they release ingredients lists, but not the recipe for combining them and making coca-cola.

There's also the small matter that anybody else in the US would be breaking the law if they possessed all the ingredients to Coca-Cola. Customs tends to take a pretty dim view of people importing coca.

 

[Borachio]

Didn't they change the recipe in 18something or whenever?

 

[Farm Boy]

Didn't they change the recipe in 18something or whenever?

Caffeine was added to replace the coca(ine), yeap.

 

[Borachio]

Which kind of ruined what might have been an interesting drink, imo. Still, I've never fancied it. All that sugar and carbonated water. Not my thing at all.
