Funny, wish I hadn't been reading all the craziness you have been posting over the last few months. Judging by the videos you made before and this one, you seem like a very nice, likable, well spoken, intelligent guy.

The internet is a fucked up place.

Nice job.

Pretty much all I wanted. I am not solving world hunger here, or figuring out a solution to why 30k children die every single day worldwide from easily preventable/treatable causes, nor am I solving a 20x20x20 rube cube so whatever, take it for what it is. I wanted some street cred and to do something no one I know has or is capable of doing as I did with the cinn challenge. Crushed that shit, crushed this shit, and there will be others in the future.

I need a better camera and Vwls I am hoping to make MONEY somewhere, somehow, and am not doing a good job at all so far. Drk gave me an idea about monetizing my youtube account, I did so, and have no clue how to extract revenue or what the next step might be. Open to anything here, putting best foot forward and asking at the same time, I can beg but what's that going to do for me?

Help please?

I KILLED my toilet just now, the dogs at my moms ran for the hills when I opened the door. I honestly felt pain on the way out similar to on the way in so ugh NOT doing that again for a while.

I am still in pain, hit the can three times all requiring double flushes and I have whimpered like a little baby several times.

Not fun, not fun....

Its like an 80 proof pepsi challenge. Grab a handful of different brands, do the blind taste test, and rank 'em best to worst. See if the price increases are worthwhile.

Precisely

I need a solid lineup tho, which is where I need help. I know pretty well what Popov tastes like, Sky and kettle1, also Stoli and Crystal Skull.

If ya'll could put together a solid lineup I'll get to graping and have the roundup done in less than a week.

See if you can get better results than the folks that tasted the following: Absolut, Popov, Ketel One, Smirnoff, Vox, Grey Goose, Skyy, and Belvedere.

In addition to rating them best to worst, see how many you can actually name correctly.

It can't be done accurately, Limitless. Been proven over and over. Odorless and nearly flavorless liquid, people. It's all brand hype and clever marketing. Mostly.

vodka's are made with different materials so there definitely is a way to judge them against each other. Some have more "bite" and burn too.

Some give me tremendous hang-overs. Others do not.

The strangest thing, my genitals are on fire right now, and my stomach, from having touched myself to go to the bathroom earlier and some of the juice being on my fingers. This after I washed my hands TWICE before going to the bathroom mind you. The pain subsided for a while, and then began to burn again AFTER I ATE THIS PEPPER

Wtf is all I can say, and I RESPECT hot food x10000 now.

Camerman is Mike, 408mikes long time friend/neighbor/landlord/father, the plate on the table had the rest of the peppers (that pile of disgustingness went RIGHT INTO THE GARBAGE after I did the video) and yes, I was shaking my leg so bad I was bouncing the table around. Ya'll have no idea, the smell! the smell... .... wow....

i can't believe you would throw faduniak's work in the garbage

man is the god of chilis, respect his work or pay it forward to someone who would

i thought you had a meeting with the san jose pepper mafia coming up anyway?

edit:
also, does cameraman mike read skatz?

how much have you told him about scuter?

I have one more harvest left with about 6 Butch T's. If the san jose pepper mafia is making a visit, I can send you a fresh shipment that hasn't molded on you.

Ok vwls, I shall begin procuring said vodka's, not sure I will be able to name the taste since I haven't drunk several of the options, but will certainly get to tasting and judging etc vsoon, week tops I hope (lacking $$ badly here)

If anyone has any of these vodkas and would like to submit a bottle or three to the cause, please pm for my address, and Godspeed.

Mike went to Dr. appt, when he gets back I will ask him.

Btw, wtf is up with the mold? It was obv my fault, what did I do wrong?

Also what is needed to plant these things? Is it the seeds or do you plant a stem or something?

if you end up doing this, there's one more step you can add for fun.

Take the popov's, or whatever cheapest kind of vodka you get, and run it through a Brita filer 3-4 times. Test the filtered against the regular.

I do have a brita filter.

Thought vodka was filtered with charcoal or something like that?

What does tito's use? I forget.

Also of interest, nicer vodka's use better water, there is a vodka from texas I need to get and add to the list, Dripping Springs or something I think (need to google, basically a friend who recently passed in his sleep at 35 used to swear by it, he lived near Austin RIP) which used spring water and was supposedly heavenly.

Hows about I evaporate the shitty water from the shitty vodka and replace with spring water and then taste test?

This is actually going to be pretty cool IMO, it's certainly developing nicely. Better camera in the works as well.

The mold was from either shipping or keeping them in a warm moist area (the bag i shipped them in). I'll send you a few more fresh from the plant tomorrow if I run past the post office.

And you plant the seed mike...although these were grown in the open next to each other so there is a good chance there was cross pollination. So you might think you are planting a butch t and it come out looking nothing like a butch t.

I'm pretty sure you just need carbon to filter water.

Alcohol (ethyl) has a lower boiling point that water. It will turn to gas before the water does.

thx for the 411, I have no desire to plant any of these things but the pepper guys def will. all of their crops have numbers and code for names, they consider themselves very sophisticated and apparently your butch t's are several notches above what they can grow.

also they are into making pepper jelly, ice cream, butter etc, so maybe some recipes will trade hands up to you all.

I am doneskies right now, my anus just barely stopped burning like hot fire, I cannot eat anything hot at the moment.

gotta admit, that was freaking TOUGH to get through.

SHIT JUST GOT REAL...

Sriracha Packets-To-Go

Why have we not heard of this before?! Clearly, here at HuffPost Taste, we love sriracha. We wrote a love letter to this hot chile sauce. We're always looking for new ways to incorporate it into our recipes. And we definitely squealed with delight when someone invented sprayracha (the sriracha bottle hooked up to a spray nozzle). Now, we've stumbled upon the genius creation of sriracha to-go packets. This is going to change everything.

The sriracha to-go packets means every single piece of food you eat can now be topped with this chile sauce. Getting a salad at lunch? Dress it with a sriracha packet. Morning bagel? Forget the cream cheese, use your single serving of sriracha. You could even add it to your coffee -- if that's how you roll.

It's true that sriracha to-go packets are not a new item, in Thailand they hand them out at food trucks. Some Asian grocers have carried them as well. But that's not consistent, or easily accessible -- instead we recommend ordering it online. You can get your to-go sriracha packets online for just 10 cents a piece. And we suggest you do, because why leave home without it?

LOL!!! While cloning would be ideal for certain plants, the fact that peppers have a shitload of seeds inside of them makes this question that much more idiotic.

Guess that's me being an asshole again :)

You dont need the whole stems. You just need the stem cells for reproducing the plants.

Don't mean to call you out here mike, but I've got a life outside of message boards. I'm not ignoring you bro, but you also kinda weird me out here recently with your lunch meat stories. I'm emailing the Pepper guy today to talk pepper talk to him and see what he knows.
