    Many times we've been out drinking
    And many times we've shared our thoughts
    But did you ever, ever notice
    The kind of thoughts I got?

    How much butter could a butter churn churn if a butter churn could churn butter? I asked AI and it gave me this big long explanation that started with the history of butter churning and ended up with some facts about the traditional way of making yak butter which I did not even know was a thing but it is and that thing is butter.

    Cooking dried carbohydrates such as pasta and rice generally depends more on temperature than moisture. You could use instant noodles but definitely not an egg or rice noodle.

    In fact, Rice cooks above 100C meaning in order to slow or prevent the water from boiling away without cooking the rice you need to either add pressure or salt to increase the boil temp.

      Dude. You can cook rice noodles in cold water.

      I usually put large rice noodles to cold-ish water for about 45-60 min depending on the noodles.

      So having a hot shower with rice vermicelli in your nipples will definitely cook them and in a matter of minutes.

    You can, and it kind of does. Back in my 20s, when my nipples were still pierced, I tried this when I was really drunk. Thank goodness, the pictures have been deleted.

    So much for “thoughts I’ve never had before”

        I want you to know that I glanced at your comment as I was closing the thread, and then felt compelled to reopen it so I could read it properly.

      For individuals with inverted nipples, it may aid in form them, by the scar tissues.

      And many do it exactly for sexual stimulation, personal affirmation or just aesthetics.

      Why the emphasis on judgement? You don’t like it, just don’t do it. People have the right to dispose of their body as they see fit.

              why would someone pierce their nipples?

              This is genuine curiosity.

              what does it do besides mutilating an erogenous zone?

              The moment you assign a negative conotation, you are passing judgement.

              Others have replied saying that having such piercings did not hamper their sensitivity or even increased it.

              I mentioned it can even serve to correct inverted nipples.

              I respect you do not see such practice in a favorable way but if you don’t like, just don’t do it. Nobody is advocating for it.

      It’s stupid cute, and my nipples are still super sensitive so it’s hasn’t really been a detriment. Idk, I love mine, I’d pierce them again if I had to.

    I think I would prefer a simple nipple piercing pasta portioner, cause I always have a hard time figuring out how much to cook.

        True. I think it depends if pasta is the main or just a side dish. But weighing spaghetti on a scale is pretty cumbersome.

        I’m just imagining the infomercial of some guy knocking the plate off the scale and then spaghetti is all over the floor saying there’s got to be a better way and then another guy comes up, and rips off his shirt to reveal his spaghetti portoner nipple ring.

    What if one day you woke up and your nipples were completely gone like no scars or anything just flat skin and then once you leave your room you find out your dad died last night and several days later you find out that your entire life he had been sneaking in your room while you slept and sucking on your chest to make two gigantic hickeys where your nipples should be because you were born without them not for any sexual reason just so you would fit in…

    Well, it obviously wouldn’t boil, but if you left it in water long enough, it will rehydrate. I’m not certain that we actually do anything by “cooking” spaghetti other than rehydrating it.

      Noodles are composed mostly of starches and heat causes gelatinization: which gives noodles their texture, taste, and holds them together. It also kills off any pathogens, which is a good things since it’s fairly common for raw flour to be contaminated with E. coli and Salmonella.

      Cold water causes them to revert back to wet flour.
