Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:Other dudes trying to get that guy to stand up and shake it off like they’re telling him “don’t tell Mom” I vaguely remember a paintball safety briefing which went "if you get shot in the balls, try not to double up and tense because it makes it worse, jump about instead." Is there any sense in that?

Is there any sense in that? Sounds like a good way to make yourself a prime target for another paintball to the nuts.

Is there any sense in that? If I got hit in the nuts with a whole rear end tree, I guarantee standing and jumping would not be an option. My only hope would be that my tears have magical healing properties.

Humbug Scoolbus posted:I have a Gorilla from the Brookfield Zoo that one of those machines made in front of me back in 1971. I had the dolphin from that zoo but I lost it in a move at some point. Last time I went they didn't have the machine and also the rhino was standing with his back to us showing his whole rear end and my group got tired of me singing "lemme see dat rhino butt" after a half hour or so. That's OSHA for you.

Lead chat was a few pages back, but knowing what a drop of water can do in a pot of molten metal, hearing that people drop molten metal into water feels inherently wrong. You'd really, really not want to mix up which is the safe one to add to which.

Scarodactyl posted:This is really cool. I actually recently started buying scrap gallium aluminum gadolinium garnet crystals for use as gems--in industry it has a similar role, absorbing high energy radiation and emitting easier to detect/easier to handle (fluorescence/phosphorescence). In a gem context it means you have an insanely fluorescent dayglow gem which also glows in the dark. This was like two months ago, but where do you get these and do you know if they ship to Canada?

Laopooh posted:Hmm, maybe? I live in an apartment building in Oakland Chinatown. Is it like the elevator I Ching or something? Missing ‘4’ is a Chinese thing. I don’t believe that pushing all the buttons is. P.S.: Modern elevator controllers can ameliorate this problem with “gently caress you. You can only have three floors queued at a time”.

Unless you worked in a shot tower, your atmospheric and environmental lead exposure level would be vastly lower than the leaded gas era. Here's a fun thought: every one of us has microplastics in us. What health effects do you think those are having?

What’s right above the nineteenth floor? Why, it’s the thirtieth. The Thing, but the titular creature is revealed because a Tesla stops for it.

Mr. Fall Down Terror posted:you can leverage an infant's natural ability to swim/float and extend that to cover the dangerous time between when an infant can naturally swim and a small child is taught to swim. it's called survival swimming and it something you can do for toddlers in case they fall into water or something, they won't simply drown It's called ISR. (infant self, or swim rescue) It's a highly effective program that generally runs a half hour a day for 6 or so weeks. We have an in ground pool and we put both our kids through it when they were each 6 months old. It was quite shocking to watch at first but both kids by the time they were done with the class could be tossed in fully clothed and pop up on their backs and float. They're 7 and 10 now and just own at swimming in general.
