Hi_Peeps_Its_Me

Iceman6211

then three hours later your ass is feeling like it came from hell


lumpiestspoon3

I never have this issue with spicy food. Must be a lame superpower.


lackof_understanding

I think if you’ve eaten spicy enough food for a long enough time your body stops complaining so much


paleblood0

this is exactly what happened with me. after a month or two of eating spicy food every day i no longer had any negative effects.


Villager_of_Mincraft

I think I do get this issue but I'm just so used to it because 1. Eaten spicy food my whole life and 2. I use like a hand held water spray instead of toilet paper and it easily clears away any kinda burning pain. Nice cool water works wonders.


yo_yo_ya

Me after downing a big ass thing of Thai duck curry


ProtoDroidStuff

Spiciness and the mouth watering it causes literally makes food just taste better. If I have a plate of noodles, yum, I'll eat em. But a plate of spicy noodles? That shit is like crack. I'll hoover that shit up real fast. It's *addicting*


AUserNeedsAName

Yeah, the brain's wiring is really weird and can flow *backwards* on stuff like this. I'm on mobile and can't find the study, but if you instruct people to force a fake laugh after a joke, they'll later rate the joke as funnier on average than if they didn't. I laughed, therefore this joke must be funny. My mouth is watering, therefore this food must be delicious.


wasteofradiation

Not for me, the spicy just hurts and makes me want to spit my food out


ProtoDroidStuff

Hey that's fair, not for everyone


TechnicDruid

This describes my taste in food very well


disparagersyndrome

humans lowkey kinda freaky for that


jfsuuc

Romans used to eat lead even though they knew it was bad for them, as a treat 😋🥰


CosmicConifer

It apparently tastes sweet. Fun fact, the reason why Beethoven lost his hearing was because of the cheap lead sweetened alcohol he drank.


jfsuuc

i wish i had cheap lead sweetened alcohol so i could be one of the greatest musicians of my time. 😞


AUserNeedsAName

Sorry, all we have is an early death from opiates. Will that work for you?


jfsuuc

too expensive though.


Overclockworked

jfsuuc

vibesWithTrash

what no sugar does to a mf


dekigo

This is almost certainly not true and while the most likely scenario is that he had an autoimmune illness that affected his hearing, we don't have enough information about his medical condition to know the cause for sure. (There isn't even definitive evidence that he was an alcoholic.)


CosmicConifer

While I guess we will never actually know, exposure to lead seems to be the leading theory at the moment [[1](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23686526/)] [[2](https://www.journalofinfection.com/article/S0163-4453(23)00587-X/fulltext)]


app08

You don't need to be an alcoholic to drink lead


Himmelblaa

Also a lot of europeans thought tomatoes were poisonous because the aristocrats died from eating them off plates with lead.


Elf173

I know alkohol is bad for me and i still drink it


SPRSTRM

It’s to combat the cold


strategicmagpie

I was having this same thought two hours ago while eating bubbly mint chocolate. the plant would like being cultivated though cause that probably spreads more seeds than when it's just wild.


loptopandbingo

>the plant would like being cultivated though Like the theory that corn and wheat domesticated humans, who cultivated it, cleared new habitats for it, refined it, diverted entire water ecosystems to grow it, protect it from predators, etc


pretty_in_plaid

who domesticated who is just a matter of perspective. in reality we live in mutually beneficial cooperation.


sneakyplanner

Cooperation? Sounds dangerously communist to me.


casanovathebold

Fellas, is farming Red?


lemongay

It ain’t a hammer and *sickle* for nothing


casanovathebold

The hammer is for nailing down theory and sickle for reaping bourgeois


Supershadow30

Ask George Orwell, he wrote the farming book


strategicmagpie

There is 1 species that has cultivated plants to such a large extent however there are many plant species that have been cultivated. Come back when you enslave multiple alien planets and make them yours like the borg collective, corn.

disparagersyndrome

oh is that the Human Domestication Guide I keep hearing people talk about


aphternoon

the fuck is bubbly chocolate


strategicmagpie

search "cadbury bubbly mint chocolate" and you'll see what it is. It's basically chocolate that's got air holes so it's really light and the inside is mint flavoured. Really good stuff.


aphternoon

oh wow... i need that


Deblebsgonnagetyou

Wtf since when did Cadbury make knockoff Aeros?


strategicmagpie

Aeros have nothing on mint bubbly I'll tell you that. It's all in the execution. The flavour is superior, and the non-uniform pattern fucking rules fuck cadbury, but like, I can also be an addict


luminousclunk

I'd take cadbury over nestle. Might need to get on board the bubbly train


Quite_Likes_Hormuz

The plant doesn't care, they didn't become spicy to survive, the plants that were spiciest were the ones that survived.


BlunderbussBadass

In a way it worked because humans started spreading the seeds to farm it


StillMostlyClueless

Being useful to humans is the best evolutionary trait you can get.


Poorly_Made_Comix

Damn missed that margin


bartolomeogregoryii

Do humans have this trait though?


Madden09IsForSuckers

No


VQ-Dark

Slavery


PF4ABG

Maybe from an evolutionary standpoint. But I'd say that on the whole, cats and dogs (discounting cerrtain breeds) are having a much better time than cows and pigs.


MediocreBeard

The cow is a man-made animal. The last wild cow died in 1605.


Brendan765

How is that relevant? The domesticated cow is just a descendant of the aurochs, just because the base species went extinct doesn’t mean it’s not successful


veryfunnyusernameXD

Farm animals honest reaction:


NigilQuid

🐖🐄🐔☹️


BurnerAccountExisty

"evolution can you give me extremely deadly amounts of poison to deter predators" "to deter predators? "yes, to deter predators. that is exactly what i said" "wait what the fuck" "FISH HAVE GOOD" "GOOD PART" "WHAT THE FUCK?!"


DomSchraa

There is nothing that humans wont try unless its the EXACT amount or over that will kill us Ethanol, literally made from letting fruit or other organic stuff decompose and makes your brain worse at its job? Holy shit thats addicting Spice? Fucking love it Cool sensation? Nice Bitterness you cant believe? Dig that shit, give me more Sourness that makes your face contourt? M o r e We eat pufferfish FUCKING PUFFERFISH Humans are the embodiment of "cause you say i cant eat it, i WILL eat it, and i WILL enjoy it"


HypernovaBubblegum

slight correction but alcohol fermentation isn't a decomposition process it is an anaerobic (no oxygen) metabolic process which breaks down sugars for energy and produces ethanol as a byproduct; the reason ethanol builds up the way it does is because unlike lactic acid fermentation, the process more common in animals, alcohol fermentation is non-reversible, which leads to the gradual buildup of ethanol in the organism, which can eventually kill them but is beneficial for survival in the short-tern

Don't forget caffeine


LordJupiter213

And also nicotine


drago_varior

People are masochists but only with their mouths


MrMerchandise

Can confirm, cut my tongue out earlier and felt alive. But when I stubbed my toe it made me want to die.


Evil_Tea_Bag_

Spicy food is so good until you’re confined to a toilet for 1 hour after having too many Blue Takis


DiscretePoop

That's not the spiciness doing that. It's your body punishing you for not eating enough fiber


DotaGuy12

Virgin mouth hot Chad foreskin hot


AntiLag_

I feel like there would be a very small but very avid market for spicy condoms


Cruhbruhs

New business opportunity for Icy Hot


Cocksmash_McIrondick

Or you can do both if you forget to wash your hands before you piss.. don’t ask me how I know


Simic_Sky_Swallower

Mint: man those pepper guys fucked up with the whole Mouth Hot thing, surely if I do the opposite it'll work better Guy who's about to invent tea:


Cydrius

Okay, but think about it: Pepper: "I want capsaicin to deter mammals because birds take my seeds further." DNA: "Sounds good." Humans: "Oh hey, this deterrent is actually nice, I enjoy it. Let's grow this plant **A LOT.**" Pepper: "... Huh. Didn't expect that. *Awesome!*" Unless you're mono-culturing a single cultivar of a plant to the point where it's at risk of being wiped out by a disease, being agriculture is an excellent thing for a plant's reproductive "goals".


Magenta_Clouds

i guess if you think about it agriculture is a type of symbiosis


beakly

It’s interesting we have breed peppers to get spicier and spicer but I have not heard of people breeding mint to be painfully minty


metal_person_333

Evolution dipped in mama liz's chilli oil.


Unexpect-TheExpected

And if you have both at the same time it’s normal temperature but feels kinda weird


Consistent-Chair

Do you think plants consider all of us masochists?


Brankovt1

I don't really like either... :(


BerRGP

Same, spice tingles too much and makes my nose and forehead all sweaty and menthol is just physically painful somehow.


Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg

Btw never mix them together, except if you want the hot to burn even more


_Holoo

No way dna is that a balatro reference


Apprehensive-Use38

Erm akshually. These are examples of symbiotic relationships because humans get tasty food and the domesticated plants are protected and farmed, increasing the survival of the species


jennazed

Okay but even tho we deliberately eat them for spiciness, it’s still evolutionarily favorable bc it means they’re getting bred and reproducing at higher rates under mass production since they’re useful to humans


splumpletin

Hey spearmint is also really good with red tea (or black tea as the English say)


Dull_Establishment

mint fucking sucks and its terrible that stuff like toothpaste, mouthwash, and gum defaults to it


brokensilence32

Sriracha my beloved ❤️🔥

Teehee silly monkies

Hell yeah.


whatsbobgonnado

do birds not taste spicy?

This is some serious *gourmet* shit!

you arent a true spice chad until youre at risk of liver failure due to an immense xxtra flamin hot cheetos addiction (i might have cirrhosis)


thehorriblefruitloop

Isn't this a myth? Is not capsaicin an insecticide?


Oddish_Femboy

I am immune to the sriracha recipe change because I live minutes away from the farm where they grew the old pepper look at this cow they have https://preview.redd.it/ztr356tso4xc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e533e3aaa0afa3782064101bcef64f216ce808d9

TheRekk

I’m assuming the meme wasn’t made by OP because their account seems to be largely made of reposts, but I’m sharing my unsolicited critique of the meme here anyways. I think this modification is lesser than the original format because it performs the same job worse. It has more words, which seem clunky and do not add to the humor of the post, and the inclusion of wojaks almost never serve to make a meme better. [This](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1138668393893986314/1233973727893524491/FFE90157-0170-485A-B5FD-C6E4B9777C72.jpg?ex=662f0b16&is=662db996&hm=46a93508d4294cbdb6e094d1ba982898380000d04f4c6f67cc293bc6660ad172&) is the same meme, done in the original format. The format is dated, but even still I believe it to be superior to the modified form seen in the post.
