I genuinely like Tabasco's habanero sauce, am I a joke?

Honestly, it's not a dick-measuring contest. I mean, there are plenty of examples of "really-not-that-hot" hot sauces in this thread that people love. Most people aren't Texan chili-heads and want something that includes good flavor without cauterizing their tongue.

Edit: If you want a real joke, go to Jack In The Box and get their "Jack's Blazin' Chicken Sandwich" topped with "ghost pepper ranch sauce." Saw that and thought "I'll believe that when I see it." Sure enough, same 320 Scoville units that you get with every other "spicy" fast food offering on the planet.

I was getting at the fact that it's mass market corporate stuff more than anything else. I assumed it would be considered bland at best by most people who are really into hot sauce - taste wise as well as heat wise.

Has anyone tried God Slayer from the Wiltshire Chilli Farm? I threw some into a burrito I was making the other day and should have worn a gas mask. The room was near enough filled with pepper spray for an hour after. The food itself wasn't bad but gently caress me my tongue burned for twenty mins and don't get me started on the shits. Weirdly the taste behind the heat was pretty good. How does that stuff compare to other sauces? It's 6.4million Scovilles according to Google. Can't imagine there's much on top of that?

(Also how are you supposed to use these ultra hot sauces in an actual serious cooking way? Or are they entirely there for bravado competitions and related bullshit?)
