Okay, so I was cooking earlier. I had some spices, seasonings and oils going. I looked on my counter, between my sink and stove, and see a button-sized glob of yellowish thick liquid right beside the bowl I was mixing stuff into. Considering what I was making, I simply thought I'd spilled some olive oil or sauce, and so I stick my finger in it, wipe it up, place it into my mouth and swallow heartily.

No, it's a big stray drop of Joy lemon dishwashing liquid from when I'd washed two bowls and a glass a few moments earlier.

This has been nearly four hours and everytime I swallow, gulp or burp, I taste Joy dishwashing liquid.

At least I'll have a squeaky-clean, grease-free mouth!

I immediately started drinking water, and then I realized "what if I start sudsing up from within?", so I stopped. Because I didn't want to "bubble out" everywhere (but I drank enough, I think, to dilute it).

It's not as strong as it was, but it's still there.

Moral to the story...don't stick your finger in yellowish thick liquid and eat it without first making sure what it is.

I know...it's one of those things you wouldn't think you'd have to actually say or make clear. It should just be "one of those automatic rules of life".

So sorry about that. At least you'll be joyful for tonight.



Besides, be thankful it wasn't Comet that you tasted. My sister ate it. Twice. To think that she's still alive is something of miracle.

Eat some dirt or grease.

If you eat enough then the soap will all be used up neutralizing the dirt / grease. When your mouth tastes neutral, stop!

Lots of profanity.

Your mouth has been soaped already, so you might as well let loose like a sailor.

No offense to you pscates, but just based on how you post here, I imagine your curses consisting of words like "shucks," "phooey," "gosh darnit," and for truly egregious situations, "fudge."

Hey, I take that as a compliment. It means I don't have to constantly wallow in the gutter to express myself.

And on the rare occasion I let a word slip by, it probably carries a bit more impact because it's not the 38th time I've used it that day (or post).

Doesn't take too much art or skill to say "fuck" (and all its variations) all day long, in every single post. The trick is not doing it and still conveying outrage, bemusement, passion, etc. Thank God for smileys, that's all I can say.



BTW, no weird effect from the Joy. I didn't eat a huge amount (just a "glob" about the size of a shirt button). But it sure does linger, the taste. I no longer taste it, but it hung around for several hours last night. But, I'm happy to report, no gastrointestinal distress or crisis. Whew...I dodged a bullet! And no...no expulsion of bubbles from either end, I'm happy to report. I wasn't a human Mr. Bubbles.

Ok, just for good orders sake, here's the proper order as it has been established though natural selection:

1. Does it look suspicious?
2. Does it smell suspicious?
3. Does it feel suspicious?
4. Does it taste suspicious?
5. Did it make you feel suspicious?

Good job skipping from 1 to 5, pscates!

I know.

Any other time, I would not be so quick to stick an unknown substance in my mouth (no jokes, please).

But I'm standing right there, whipping up some delicious dinner and I (understandably) thought "oops, I dripped some sauce...". It didn't occur to me - until I swallowed - that it could be anything other than that.

Then I did one of those classic "freeze and retrace" moments...I stopped, had my tongue out and was spitting in the sink, drinking water, etc. all while remembering back to 20 minutes earlier, how I'd washed a few dishes in that same spot and realizing what it was that I'd ingested.

"Hey, I'm officially an idiot!"

It is indeed "ultra concentrated", because for such a little glob, it packed quite a punch in the "lingering aftertaste" department. I can personally vouch for the "concentrated, strong cleaning power" of Joy.

I'm so happy, I'm bubbling over. And I have a squeaky-clean, fresh lemony scent!

So there's that.

"Studies show that 100% of participants reported being so happy, they were bubbling and general feeling of squeaky-clean with fresh lemony scent. We therefore recommend that Joy be added to the municipal water supply."

Maybe you should talk with their marketing department? Just imagine a TV ad where you stand there telling your story. Joy: "Very concentrated, but I didn't get sick." Or perhaps something along the lines of that stoned girl in that old Apple advert?

This thread is like the best non-drunk post ever. <3 paul.

And some of us do like wallowing in the fucking gutter to express ourselves, thank you very much.

But I like smileys too. Wee!!!

and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong

Tell who?

Obama?

I can see him holding a press conference:

"This is a era of hope and change. If we are to change, we must let go of our old habits. Therefore from this day, we will not say the f-word. We will say "Change!" We will not say J-word. We will say "Hope!""
