Butter has an energy density roughly six times than that of TNT.

EDIT: Which really means we should be measuring the strength of nuclear weapons, meteorite impacts, or supervolcanoes in terms of how many million tons of butter, or MEGABUTTERS, they are equivalent to.

"The Tsar-Bomb was the most powerful nuclear device ever detonated on earth, equivalent to 8.3 Megabutters."

Burn that butter for power stations, measure the output in PaulaDeenaHertz - or in milliMyocardial Infarcations.

I could never be on the cast of a TV show/film franchise. I would be "accidently" leaking fake spoilers all the time to wind up the fans

Hi Lyft Driver!

It sure is weird that you chose birth control methods as a topic of conversation, but I guess I can see how we got here. We started out talking about kids and... well, it didn't naturally make it's way there, when I think about it. Kids to birth control is a hard jump, and I think you brought up the kid thing.

Anyway, I'm not squeamish and I am polite, so god damn it I am gonna have this conversation with you, but I am going to talk about it in the abstract. "Yes, these various methods exist, one might be interested in trying this particular method." But, if we're going down this fucking road, Lyft driver, you're gonna need to heed one very simple rule: Never ask me

“What does it feel like?”

And when I demure from this line of questioning with something fairly explicit, such as "I don't want to talk about that." (because in addition to everything else it isn't even noon yet), this is not a more acceptable followup:

“But does it feel good?”

It's too bad I have to wait for the ride to be over before I can rate you, but here we go:
[star] [star] [empty] [empty] [empty]

...Because I mean, you didn't make me hold your sandwich like Healslime's driver did.

Yeah, I think it's time to rewatch MST3K again. And this time, include all of the Joel episodes.

The Nintendo Switch's carts have been specifically engineered to taste terrible, to make sure no child swallows one. This was a deliberate decision and outcome, the entire implied process is hilarious to me.

This was either specifically in a design doc somewhere, and/or came up in a meeting and invoked very involved discussions about how bad it should taste, how it should be incorporated into the manufacturing process, all that. Presumably, for at least a week, this was somebody's primary job and task. They came to work, every day, to work out--either through meticulous selection or engineering--the specifically worst-tasting substance they could coat the Switch's games in, which was also not dangerous to the console (or presumably for people ingesting it). They probably went through several candidates, in fact.

Was the birth control method abstinence?  Because I've not had sex before a couple times.

It was awful.  I really don't recommend it.

I like to think that it was done like a clinical drug trial. There were groups of volunteers, each one being made to lick a different tasting cartridge and fill in a questionaire afterwards. "Okay, so the cartridges aren't delicious or harmful to the rats, let's see how the humans react."
