No, back to MXY's airborn/digested peanut allergy difference. The instance of a case of airborn anaphylaxis is very rare, and only they would have to concern themsleves with the "in the same plant" issues.Quote:

No, the concentration wouldn't be high enough. If it were peanuts, and they were throwing them at you, maybe.Quote:

You're hitting the tip of the iceberg when it comes to food labeling. There's a TON of strange and occasionally-bad shit that goes on when it comes to such things. The worldwide bible of food labeling, under the auspices of the World Health Organization (not the FDA or USDA), is called the Codex Alimentarius. The dynamics of what does and doesn't get labeled and in what contexts will hurt your head. There was recently a flap about "cloned beef" labeling, but it is pointless unless the Codex is updated.
Wait, did he press charges?Quote:

I don't know ONE person (and never have) that is allergic to peanuts.
I know one person who's allergic to peanuts, though it's not airborne or anything like that. I know another person who has an airborne food allergy that can lead to anaphylaxis, and can't be at a fish market or Dead Lobster.
I can't be at dead lobster because I'll starve trying to find something worthwhile on the menu. my only hope to stay alive is the salty biscuts.

My worker said...'I believe if someone uses that word, they should have their ass kicked' We laugh and talk about the drywall job at the new McDonalds up in Vascalinas.
True story...son of a bitch talks to 2 construction workers using ubiquitous. fucking douche bag.
^ reminds me of that story bukdow told us... he said was at the pool hall and construction workers (Michigan "fans") came in and "harassed" him, so he had to put them in their place.
You may have had contact with Josef, dude.
I'd hit him in the fuckin head with a shovel to wake him up.

He won.
Well, for those 17 minutes he was alive anyway.
Ordinarily when I talk to two construction workers I use smelling salts to wake them up from their fourth nap of the day.Quote:

All three will be doing the SB half time show next year.

^ agree, if you need to get somewhere fast, just run, ride a bike, get a cab, drive a car.
Why there was a "Vintage USC Apparel" advertisement on WTFDetroit. If they took even 10 seconds to look at the NCAA thread, they'd know that's not getting them any business.
Why whenever I'm sitting in my bosses office and he's talking to me I start yawning. Every time. Never fails.

We all know his Doctorate is in Postology.
I don't get why the people who are most angry with all the steroid/HGH users do just as bad(smoke, drink, take pills, cheat on their spouse, etc.), if not worse things than roiders. And all of you motherfuckers are on poison just like these roiders. There are roids and other chemicals in the shit you eat and drink. So let the roiders do their roids because we're just as fucked up as they are.
And that's what I don't get.
I also don't get wigs(on people who don't have hair conditions)/push-up bras. Eventually they'll come off, and when I discover that I've been had, I'll dump your low self-esteem ass.
I'd still hit it though before dumping you.
Arch is quite the charmer.
Bill Maher went on a similar rant on his show last week, fwiw.Quote:

Why I have the coldest fingers on the planet. I hate that poor circulation answer that everyone always says - What does that even mean? My blood doesn't circulate well in my fingers, but it's fine everywhere else? From October to May, my fingers are litterally colder than ice.
You been fingering dead chicks, MoTown?
Not since 2007.
I have the world's coldest nose. For some reason, my nose can be cold when the rest of my body is warm. I went to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and stood in front of the thermal imaging camera, and my nose was one of two parts of my body that displayed as completely black. The other one was my dick, lol. But then again, my nose is inordinately huge. lol I need an electric nose warmer or something.
Yeah, the nose is mostly cartilage, not muscle and veins and such--this leads to it not having as much bloodflow and being much cooler than the rest of your body.
