I am currently fighting a personal emphysema or asthma issue due to recent work around diesel fuel fumes. I cannot believe idiot teens would do this on purpose.

Would any freeper that can relate to ‘fuel fume’ breathing problems, please freep mail me.

Cinnamon is TREE BARK!..........

[Vendome]

Why not gargle with peanut butter???

[goodnesswins]

Oh, FGS....I suppose now we’ll have to show ID to buy cinnamon?

I don’t know if you know anything about inhalation or aspiration of other substances but I have a friend who is a youth leader and regularly does something with the kids where they launch “bombs” using flour in balloons. I told her I thought this could be dangerous if someone inhaled the flour dust particles. She ignored me. I admit I am very safety-conscious, but I used to work in an industry where people were exposed to fibrous dust and ended up getting illnesses such as mesothelioma and pneumoconiosis.

Let’ recommend this game to college “professors” of the liberal ilk.

They’re vulnerable anyway, and besides, know absolutely nothing about science.

And - added bonus - it’ll improve university IQ.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Even when I was a kid, I thought these sorts of games were stupid.

Just have never gotten, why people think its funny.

Ok, I admit it, I never ever wanted to be like everyone else, never went along with the crowd...follow me fine...I do not follow you. (Sorry Mom)

Noxious fumes can trigger asthma attacks. Emphysema is something different entirely and unless you fill your lungs with a gallon of diesel fuel, you didn’t get emphysema from it

Reminds me of when I was a kid - 3rd grade I suppose. My older friend (5th grade) knew all about heroin, and how it was made from poppies.

We snuck into my mom’s spice rack and “stole” a few poppy seeds - but he warned me not to take more than three as we might overdose.

I SWEAR I had a bit of a buzz on after I downed those three!!

[Straight Vermonter]

I think this fad played itself out about 2 years ago.

[Hardraade]

I like my rice pudding with at least a three-mm layer of cinnamon.

Huess I have a high allergy treshhold.

Kids today are weak, in my day we did it with asbestos.

The wages of cinnamon are death!

[Gamecock]

We played with mercury!

(actually, that may explain a lot....)

[Ben Mugged]

Get a safe fad, like swallowing Goldfish.

[Obadiah]

LOL

Darwin may have been on to something, eh?
