Author Topic: An experiment in grossness (Read 5029 times)

Crazy Cooter · « **on:** November 09, 2005, 06:54:17 pm »

I chew cherry skoal off and on and had an empty can sitting on my desk for the past week. I yanked out my chew for the day and was going to toss it in the empty can when I discovered I had already done just that about a week ago. The smell is probably the grossest thing I've ever smelled other than "onion-gas".

So this can is going in the garage for a month with two chews in it. What I need is for someone to bump this thread so I remember to take a picture of it at that time.

btw: "Onion gas" is when you bet someone they can't eat four cooked onions like apples. What people don't realize is that onions give you gas like beans do, but the smell is like hot rancid onions and usually makes the person have EXPLOSIVE crap for the next day or two

Holy Crap.

Didn't know that about onions.
Didn't know I wanted to know that.

I want to know how you're supposed to COOK the onions!

Boil 'em?

you know the sick thing? I feel like I have to try it myself to make sure it works

It's times like this we need a USB smelling device to really appreciate where you are coming from.

Harry Potter · « **Reply #9 on:** November 10, 2005, 08:11:20 am »

It's times like these we need a feature to send threads to post hell if enough people vote for it.

This thread won't need to be bumped. It's digusting enough to stay current for at least a month.

I ---smurfing--- hate onions. Just thinking about eating them, in any quantity, makes me queasy.

Stingray · « **Reply #13 on:** November 10, 2005, 10:57:28 am »

I love onions. If I could only email the smell to everyone, I'd give that experiment a go.

ChadTower · « **Reply #14 on:** November 10, 2005, 10:58:47 am »

If you could email a smell you wouldn't be bothering with stupid onion.

Stingray · « **Reply #15 on:** November 10, 2005, 11:02:36 am »

I think I'll just innocently pretend that I have no idea what you're saying.

Jess-- · « **Reply #16 on:** November 10, 2005, 11:03:07 am »

I can think of worse smells than onions to email to people

ChadTower · « **Reply #17 on:** November 10, 2005, 11:03:46 am »

I think Jess is a few minutes behind.

Stingray · « **Reply #18 on:** November 10, 2005, 11:06:23 am »

It happens to the best of us. It also happens to me.

Not that I'd know this... but onion gas will keep overnight in a glass jar... at least that's the rumor.

All you need to do is overnight express it to the first address you find in the forums. Nobody would be able to resist the temptation of opening the jar. Just mark it "Arcade Smells"

. The ass of your pants still smell the next day too (again, I've only been told that).

I see you're bringing more incentive to the table to get me to try this

Since Seph isn't around, I'll offer to patent in her mouth for him.

Him and Chad appear to be MIA today

Stingray · « **Reply #29 on:** November 11, 2005, 03:57:36 pm »

Seph is hungover, which is what he deserves for getting wasted on a thursday. Don't know what Chad's excuse is. Probably something lame like "work".

1 packet of mac and cheese powder
1 cup of sugar
2 quarts of ice water

stir together and enjoy

Crazy Cooter · « **Reply #43 on:** November 23, 2005, 03:35:01 pm »

FLOPPED.

It smells like Cherry Skoal

. No stink what-so-ever. Now I have to come up with a new idea for x-mas presents. I might just send out a glass jars of Onion Gas.
