DaemonFC | Good riddance. | Aug 22 17:21 |
DaemonFC | If you're stupid enough to drink mouthwash, the world does not require your presence. | Aug 22 17:21 |
DaemonFC | They denature it to get around excise taxes imposed on alcoholic beverages. Drinking *some* shouldn't kill you, it will just make you violently ill. :) | Aug 22 17:22 |

DaemonFC | Listerine wouldn't say how they denature it for mouthwash, but the code of federal regulations only lists one process that's approved. | Aug 22 17:23 |
DaemonFC | Addition of thymol, menthol, and eucalyptol. | Aug 22 17:24 |
DaemonFC | Listerine lists all three as ingredients.. | Aug 22 17:24 |
DaemonFC | Those alone wouldn't kill someone, but be ready to puke your guts out. :) | Aug 22 17:24 |
DaemonFC | There's another process that teenagers are using since the news sensationalized their reporting of it. | Aug 22 17:25 |
DaemonFC | Mix salt with hand sanitizer, and the alcohol will separate from it. | Aug 22 17:26 |
DaemonFC | So now they're pouring it into drinks. | Aug 22 17:26 |

sebsebseb | DaemonFC: here's one though, why is that many peopole hardly ever use their computer | Aug 22 17:39 |
sebsebseb | and instead just use a phone instead for most of the kind of stuff theyh would have used a computer for | Aug 22 17:39 |
sebsebseb | these days | Aug 22 17:39 |
sebsebseb | is Windows really that bad, that running say Android on a phone instead is so much better, by thes people? | Aug 22 17:40 |
DaemonFC | I still use my desktop more than anything else. | Aug 22 17:40 |
sebsebseb | I guess their Windows isntalsl don't run well | Aug 22 17:40 |
DaemonFC | I might buy a laptop in the future. | Aug 22 17:40 |
sebsebseb | and then they got this good OS on their phone and so yeah the phoen | Aug 22 17:40 |
DaemonFC | I really don't like tablets at all. | Aug 22 17:40 |
DaemonFC | or smartphones | Aug 22 17:40 |

MinceR | DaemonFC: i thought that all cigarettes were organic :> | Aug 22 19:08 |
DaemonFC | it means no pesticides | Aug 22 19:09 |
MinceR | sebsebseb: i know a couple of people who are too stupid to realize that winblows is a bad choice | Aug 22 19:09 |
MinceR | but pesticides are often organic too | Aug 22 19:09 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: oh many of those around | Aug 22 19:12 |
sebsebseb | MinceR: most computer userse in fact sadly | Aug 22 19:12 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, Oddly enough, nicotine is a pesticide. | Aug 22 19:13 |
MinceR | :> | Aug 22 19:13 |
DaemonFC | Apparently, the USDA allows it to be used in "organic" farming.... | Aug 22 19:13 |
DaemonFC | So, they could just be spraying the tobacco fields with nicotine. | Aug 22 19:13 |
MinceR | :D | Aug 22 19:13 |
DaemonFC | The whole reason the plant creates the stuff is to keep bugs from eating it. | Aug 22 19:14 |
MinceR | and it isn't working well enough? | Aug 22 19:14 |
MinceR | http://24.media.tumblr.com/04e29d92339f2a0f0ce32908ce5942d3/tumblr_mrxzmgZubs1qdlh1io1_400.gif | Aug 22 19:14 |
DaemonFC | They wouldn't have to grow tobacco to extract the nicotine to spray the tobacco with. | Aug 22 19:14 |
DaemonFC | Several other members of the nightshade family create nicotine. | Aug 22 19:15 |
DaemonFC | I don't think they have other commercial uses. | Aug 22 19:15 |
DaemonFC | MinceR, They like to maximize crop yield. | Aug 22 19:16 |
DaemonFC | If they're losing any of it, they lose money. | Aug 22 19:16 |
DaemonFC | That's why they use other pesticides in normal tobacco farming. | Aug 22 19:16 |
MinceR | using nicotine as a pesticide in tobacco farming would be useless though, wouldn't it? | Aug 22 19:21 |
DaemonFC | Not if the higher concentration kills more bugs. | Aug 22 19:22 |
DaemonFC | They must use other pesticides on non-organic tobacco for a reason. | Aug 22 19:23 |
