Most bar ice machines are full of snot like microbial jelly. Even if the ice machine is properly deep cleaned it will be back to some extent within only a few weeks.
In reality it’s harmless (if the machine is regularly and properly cleaned) because it’s mostly just yeast colonies caused by yeast being flung into the air from the beer. Yeast loves ice machines for some reason and grows very quick. Assuming the ice machine is properly cleaned regularly and not subject to overly filthy conditions then there shouldn’t be anything actually concerning growing in there. But now you are forever cursed with the knowledge that any ice you get in a bar likely came from a machine full of biological slime.
Also the issue can be mostly mitigated by built in air sterilization units or completely prevented by feeding the machine with ozonated water, but I’ve never met a bar owner willing to pay for those options.
fountain soda machines do the same in a way if not cleaned regularly. i’ve had a few jobs in the food industry where i would break down the soda fountain and other employees, even managers, had no idea the nozzles would come off and once they did at those places, it was obvious they hadn’t been cleaned in years and would be full of crusty sugar, bugs, mold, it’s horrifying.
No restaurant worth their salt is unaware that soda fountains can be broken down. Weekly cleaning minimum, if not nightly, is standard in any clean restaurant.
Knowledge even God carved from their own mind.
You, my friend, are a prophet of horrors unknown. Hail to you, harbinger of nausea.
The amount of salt and butter needed to get certain foods to taste like restaurant food. My mother in law nearly fainted when I started cooking for her, but she loves the way it comes out so she let’s it be.
Also the reason bar cocktails taste so good? Boatload of sugar
What the Lindsey Graham ladybugs thing means. Once known it can never be dis-known.
The ladybugs are buried six feet under now. They can’t hurt you anymore.
You’re saying it isn’t slang for an obviously gay man who parades around like a straight republican?
Thanks for that. This thread is going to suck.
Whoa.
A single tick bite can lead to you becoming allergic to meat for the rest of your life.
One of my mentors in a trade got a tick bite in 82’, and for years couldn’t stand or walk, or fully close his hands. Never again could he fully close his hands, having to hold hammers and chisels with his thumbs only, making them extremely exhausting to use.
The nerve damage is still getting worse, and now his only goal is to wrap up all his final projects before he physically can’t use his hands at all anymore.
They scare the shit outta me
That you actually should know
I’d rather not know of these terrors.
I have several friends with this syndrome. Has led to them introducing me to some fine vegan cheeses!
How to play Scrabble competitively.
Once you know, you can’t play against normal people anymore, they’ll hate it and, if it happens often enough, you. You can only play against other Scrabble bastards, and you’ll hate that and, very quickly, them.
This is why Scrabble is not a good game.
Mercaptan (the chemical used to give natural gas an easily detectable smell) is not regulated.
What a human body looks like after being dead for 5 days in the July heat in an apartment with no air conditioning. The smell is also something I wouldn’t wish on anyone either. Even worse, actually knowing and liking the deceased.

What the murmurs in the void are saying.
Don’t try to figure it out. Just. Leave. It. Alone.
(moo.)
There are some atrocious actions people have done to other people and themselves that I wish I could unlearn. Not just the genocides, slavery, and mass rapes across history and currently but the individual stuff like what happened to Furuta Junko (nsfl). I used to think learning about the more morbid nature of humanity would be helpful to understand but it’s hard not to become cynical or misanthropic after learning about some of the worst stuff.
Mm hmm
1 guy 1 jar (nsfl)
The jar doesn’t make it.
Doooo NOT watch it.
My brother-in-law sent it to me maybe 20 years ago now and every horrible moment of it is still there making me flinch and pain.
The code for the nuclear weapon is 3144
Why people allergic to cockroaches can’t have coffee
let me guess, because there are remnants of cockroaches in ground coffee?
The easiest primary explosive to synthesise at home is HMDT (Hexamethylene triperoxide diamine) The second easiest is TATP (Acetone Peroxide).

If you know, you know.
If you dont, it’s probably better off.
Unfortunately I do T_T
