An old joke, possibly originating from somewhere in the basement of a DuPont facility:
How can you tell a chemist apart from an engineer?
...
The chemist washes his hands before he takes a leak.

I’ve eaten nearly exclusively spicy food for many years and have only been eye spiced once. I generally don’t even wash my hands after, and often touch my face and eyes while cooking because of my hair. It almost feels like a fairy tale to me, the idea of getting eye spiced. Are people irritating their eyes with peppers spicier than serrano, arbol, and pequin peppers or are my eyes just impervious?
But I would like some advice for an ongoing issue, I still can’t figure out how to prevent my home from filling with painfully spicy air when I stir fry. Any advice on that front?
just impervious; hood fan.
Oh jeez, our federation is borked. It took hours to get this notification. But yeah, at this point, upping the power on our motor seems to be the only immediately apparent longterm feasible option
Yeah, federation is a trip. Time zones probably influence it? I wasn't kidding about the respirator, btw. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6682244/
we discuss an unusual exposure of capsaicin to the vaginal mucosa with successful treatment.
Before I read any further, I’d just like to point out my supreme confusion at how a respirator might help in this situation. I first imagined a patient in an urgent care being prescribed a respirator to treat their nightmarish groin pain.
Edit: by god, they must have been screaming from the speculum. I nearly audibly screamed as I read through this. What fresh, undeserved horror this person lived through.
My point is peppers are used in pepper spray. Respirator because you may be especially sensitive. People actually die from reaction to capsaicin.
Oh, I’ve understood that for ages. Back when India was trading the record for hottest pepper, you’d find dozens of videos of folks eating them. Some died from aspiration. Others from swelling in the gut. I take it seriously.
Face touching sucks, but penis is worse
Reapers man, let’s just say I wash extremely well these days after cutting them up.
I feel there is a traumatizing story that is meant to follow.
