On that note. Don't ever leave a cup of shrimp Top Ramen sitting in a room for over 5 days. The resulting fumes are capable of burning your sinuses....

....I really need to clean my room more often.

I once accidentally left broccoli in the back of a locker for three months. (I'm not kidding!) I didn't even open up the container - just threw it all out, and rejoiced at the fact that the mysterious smell was gone.

I'm back! It's going to take forever to catch up... I'm going to regret this, I know it...

How could you waste three month old broccoli, there are starving kids in Somalia!

I found a five year old cookie in a drawer once. It was still edible, too....

When I moved to my current apartment...I found a forgotten bag of carrots in one of the bottom drawers in the fridge in the apartment I was leaving. It had become some spongy mass of festive grey, black and green fuzz with weird sorts of sprout-like tendrils coming out. Thankfully it was all contained in the plastic bag still...

I saved a water balloon for about 3 years once. I got rid of it when the latex started to decompose inside it. You could see stuff floating around inside the balloon. Ick.

We still have a Chuppa Chups lolly pop from when I was, oh, maybe 11 or so. It came with a video game that my brother got. Man, those things never age.

You know, good bakeries are really hard to find here in the midwest. Sniff.

I work in a bakery. You come to hate the smell of baking bread.

But you never get sick of eating a nice waaaaaaaaaaaarrrm just out of the oven roll/loaf of bread. Or muffins. MMMMMM MUFFINS. Or the croissants...... or scones.............. or cookies...... T__________________T

I can't decide if I love or hate my job!!

Don't hard boil eggs, and then go downstairs and play computer games and forget the eggs until every last drop of water boils out of the pan.

Because then the eggs begin to explode. And I do mean explode. As in, <WHUMP!> noises from upstairs. Oh, and the smell... the house smelled like burned eggs for two weeks.

I think the wife's reaction would be worse than the smell.

That could be a question for RC: "Why do eggs explode?", or "If an egg was exploded in space, how far would the pieces travel?"

No.

But you have to admit the physics behind a pipe bomb are fascinating....

Expanding gas explosions. Gotta love 'em.

I prefer BLEVE explosions (Boiling liquid, expanding vapor explosion). You get those from wrapping pellet gun CO2 cartridges with cannon fuse. Bigger explosion - it can move the back end of a car if you slide it into the exhaust pipe.

Not that I've done that, of course.

I don't think RC should be explaining how to make explosive devices.

Not if I want to retain a PG rating.
