No, I havn't had my ear pierced and this little lump seems to be INSIDE the earlobe. When I feel it, it seems to move a bit so it isn't an external thing.

When I feel it, it seems to move a bit so it isn't an external thing.[/QUOTE] I know exactly what you're talking about, I've had it multiple times before (it seems to come and go). I haven't bothered going to a doctor about it but it seems to be completely harmless, and it goes away by itself after a while. (Although mine does seem to come back occasionally, not sure if that holds true for everyone or just some people)
AUTUMN HELP Can I eat apples if they've been in the fridge for a couple of months? Like they're not deformed or anything, the skin feels weird, sort of sticky, but after I rinse it with water it's like normal, I cut them open and they seem normal, I tried a bite and it tasted pretty good.

if it's bad you'll know about it soon enough either way, you'll survive
[QUOTE=suppertime;37237926]I'm pretty sure humans can survive some toxin otherwise we'd be fucking dead by breathing in smog.[/QUOTE] I didn't say you were dead, you assumed eating it would kill you by that logic. I just said that whatever problems coming along from eating a bad apple would happen now, regardless of how much you ate.
Uhm guys if you freeze something it doesn't decompose so how would the apples be bad?

The freezer will make nothing toxic. Never.
so guys, everytime i scratch any part of my body, lots of dead skin falls off, it wasnt like that before, what could it be?
Did you do anything recently that could cause such a response? Like walk through some toxic waster or other dangerous materials? Otherwise and even then you should see a doctor, because it's usually a response to very serious problems.

He said a couple of months and that the texture changed, so I assume he meant freezer when he said refrigerator...

No, but we can take all symptoms into consideration and create a diagnosis based on it. And "a couple of months" is way too long for storing vegetables in a fridge to even consider them edible anymore.
It was fridge, I ate the whole apple before I posted. I am fine. It was delicious. I think I have a magical fridge. [editline]15th August 2012[/editline] Wow apples keep for 6 months between 30 and 40?
apples can last a very long time in the fridge without going mouldy though, they just dry up a bit and the skin shrivels. so long as the skin hasn't been damaged it's unlikely they'll go mouldy for a long time. i wouldn't recommend eating them though, yuck
All this talk of apples... I'm going to eat one now.
NOOO THEYRE TOXIC
Sometimes I feel immense pain in my lower intestines closer to my hip area and it hurts so bad I can't even sit properly. Sometimes it's because I have to poop, other times it just happens randomly. Is this normal?

You can all return to your homes now.
I've had a hard time breathing through my nose for years, I don't have a cold or anything.
When I've been logging and clearing foliage and stuff I've been getting loads of cuts, and I've been covering it with pine sap from the nearest tree, which works great. It works as both a disinfectant and fills the wound, but later I get my keyboard all sticky. Are there any good disinfectants like that that also covers the wound?
mac, i don't know where you're from, but here in the UK we have this stuff [img]http://boots.scene7.com/is/image/Boots/10021134?wid=280&hei=343&op_sharpen=1[/img] and it's very good
I live in Norway. Thanks, I'll look for it, I just hope it works as well as pine sap cause bandaids fall off the instant I do any sort of log chopping or even attempt to clear the portage and then the wound is all exposed just waiting for an infection.

Actually tree sap is not disinfectant im pretty sure.
Actually it is. Woodsmen have been using it for decades. They can be bought in bottles too now I think. It's a phenolic substance that kills most hostile bacteria and protects the tree, and subsequently humans, without being particularly toxic.
Im pretty sure its used as cough sirup.
