‘If you’re the kind of guy who’s always ‘giving people a hard time,’ please know you’re the most draining sort person to be around, and people are actively avoiding you.’
Depends, there are some people who give others a hard time and are absolute blasts to be around.
There are also others where you wish they’d get trapped in an elevator with an energetic puppy for an hour to waste their energy.Also what’s with the apostrophes? I don’t really understand what they mean here.
They’re semiquotes.
That’s the goal.
At my job there this almond flavored coffee pods that when brewed smelled overwhelmingly almond-y. My cousin works in metal reclamation an they work with a LOT of cyanide, I tell him if he ever wants the day off, I’ll get him a pod, all he needs to do is spill that coffee and they’d shut down the entire floor to double check things.
(context if you’re lost is that cyanide smells a lot like almonds)
NileRed did a video on how it smells ‘chemically’ and nothing like almonds. In the US you can buy cyanide without restrictions due to how easy it comes up on toxicology tests so if you have the money, buy it and smell it yourself. He also tasted it too.
I was a refrigeration tech in a place that made high end refrigeration equipment. Fun fact, when some refrigerants get too hot, they break down into hydrogen flouride which forms hydroflouric acid when it comes in contact with water, such as the water in your respriatory tract. Acids taste and smell sour. Being that I normally worked with brand new equipment, I had never dealt with burned refrigerant before. This resulted in me wondering why the hell the refrigerant in an RMA machine had a sour smell when purged the lines on my manifold. Like the dumbass I am I wound up smelling a fair bit of that refrigerant trying to identify why it smelled sour before it finally occured to me that I had been practically snorting hydrogen flouride. One hospital trip, a few chest xrays, and an ECG later I wound up being fine. The next day I came back to work to find that my smartass boss had put a bag of sour candy on my desk.
Fun fact, wild almonds have lethal amounts of cyanide, it’s only through selective breeding that we can eat them
Who the hell thought, “OK, so it killed Bill, but I think there’s something here. We just need to keep trying.”
There are lots of wild foods that are poisonous, but that didn’t stop our ancestors from figuring out ways to make them edible. In the case of bitter almonds I can find a reference to baking and boiling being effective methods of reducing cyanide content. Cold leaching might also work but it would take a lot more time.
I have to imagine that dire necessity was a catalyst for these discoveries. I’m guessing the thought process was more like “These are bitter as shit and they killed Bill, but we’re gonna starve to death if we don’t find some food, so let me try boiling these to see if the bitter goes away.”
Boiling also works to make acorns
edibleconsumableless lethal. They still taste kinda bad though.
Because almonds are tasty as fuck. As long as someone else is testing the new strains that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
I imagine wild almonds probably taste like burning
Also, everything gets taste tested during a for real famine.
I don’t really think almonds taste good imo. They’re pretty bland to me.
You are entitled to your own opinion irrespectivly of how wrong it is.
fair enough haha
I’m not a big fan of almonds by themselves, but I love almond butter, almond milk, and roasted almonds.
Okay, but why not just breed the almonds? /j

Nile has basically killed his sense of smell from years of smelling chemicals he’s made. Don’t trust his nose for anything lol
Bro looks like a fluffy Randall, from Clerks.
I thought it was Mitchell from Mitchell and Webb
Wtf you right?! Weird
Randall looks fluffy in Clerks 2
A surprisingly ok movie.
I loved Randall messing with the transformers kid, but not much else. Oh and the ass to mouth discussion. I haven’t watched 3 and I doubt I ever will.
probably the only quantifiable attention he gets
