      You ain't no shit of coke. We here in cali used do eight balls in one hit. Well try to. We usually get to bout 2grams before we back up n dont cough on the line. Good times. 5years clean off coke

    • @fuckyoutube5584
      @fuckyoutube5584 2 роки тому

      Also coke effects everyone differently. I have multiple medical problems brain wise so coke actually helped a bit but after long use I went crazier. 5 days 4 nights I stayed up on coke. I heard people calling my name talking to me who weren't there. I'd black out not remembering half the stuff I did. I once gave a gram coke to a seagull in Mariana bay in San leandro/Lorenzo area. Man that bird acted as if his legs weren't there. Man those were some times. Now with fent I dont even kick coke bags on ground. I look n watch from a distance who picks it up. Drugs effect everyone differently and the dosage is different. I never had a nose bleed, but god forbid my right hand goon. Every time he'd do a gram, boom nose bleed. Once in a while he would be too slow and ruin a batch coke cus it became bloody. I became responsible and told em nah home straw bumps now. I'd cut a straw load a quarter inch of it with coke. Put it in dudes nose and tell him lean back and sniff. I'll tell you after the first time that those guys only wanted straw bumps. Quicker and heavier during first few hits. After that its like novacaine in the nose. Shit all numb

    FYI: as someone who is missing an ovary due to a cyst, specifically a teratoma, it does not reduce your chances of getting pregnant. Your other ovary just takes over and works double time. Just throwing that out there. Signed: 8 months pregnant in a heat wave 🥵
    Edit to say: I am not referring to those with chronic cyst issues such as PCOS. That’s a completely different issue. I’m referring to losing one ovary with nothing wrong with the other.

    I mean no disrespect, and I've loved brain blaze for over a year now, but I miss the format where Simon is reading from a tablet or paper. To me it has a more organic feel, like he's reading something in a newspaper and look up to go on tangents and discuss the content. Idk, the promt reading feels good for presentations, like the million edutainment channels Simon also has, but BB is a bit more laid back and casual. Much more a one man podcast, and less of a formal presentation. Just my 2 cents :)
    BB will forever be my favorite Simon production

      I think a lot of people miss the old BB style, the tangents are still there sometimes but the energy is so much lower. Guessing with two little ones now plus everything else maybe it just got a little too draining. Either way the topics are still interesting, Danny is still one of my favorite Factboy writers of all time. Even if Simon seems to have starved him in the basement so that he's only capable of 2500 words per script these days. Kevin was good too, More Kevin! And of course the wonderful Memeology of Sam. Still entertaining, and maybe once in a while, if we are lucky, we will get an OGBB style episode with a 10 minute intro, with Simon free ranging the set, going on epic tangents while waving his paper script around, doing rim shots and wearing zebra head masks. And that would be extra special.

    @doctorlolchicken7478 2 роки тому +94

    In Danny’s defense, I’m not sure where I would have placed the suicide story. It’s hard to ignore it, since everyone would be mentioning it in the comments if you did. It can’t be the intro because it might scare people away, and if you don’t put it last then everything after is is going to seem mild and in bad taste. There is some irony in a story of a tv presenter committing suicide as a protest against exploitive news stories being part of a series of exploitive tv stories.

    As a former long-term cocaine user, the amount that the chef was doing was definitely NOT a huge amount, at least not by the standards of a regular user.
    The chef's eyes absolutely look to me like he had already done a few lines prior to the camera landing on him.
    As far as doing lines with large bills goes, that's definitely a thing. Even if I was by myself, if I had several denominations and they were all equally crisp, I'd use the $100 - just because. Otherwise, if I had to use a bill, I'd use whichever one was the least mangled by circulation so that the majority of the coke went into my nose rather than getting stuck in the creases, folds, and dimples of the bill. To me, this is why a cut straw is preferable.

    For a more light hearted story: Nikel Pallat, former member of the German far-left punk-band "Ton Steine Scherben" was once invited to a talk show to discuss some political nonsense. At some point, he randomly pulls out an axe, which he somehow managed to smuggle into the studio and tries (and fails) to destroy the table they were sitting at to prove some point that probably only he understands. Afterwards, somewhat upset, he starts to steal the microphones still standing on the only mildly damaged table and walks out of the studio.

Simon and I would have been in the same year group at school in the UK and I reckon everyone in their mid-30s who had a TV recieving the BBC out of all our 4-5 available channels would have watched that segment.

    The reason you hear about "paid leave" after someone does a bad is because there frequently is language in collective bargaining agreements that specify a union member is entitled to progressive discipline (as opposed to being fired on the spot for having a pink shirt or something). Under some circumstances, the contract specifies paid leave until the investigation is complete. Not great in a lot of cases, but IMHO it's a fair trade for protection from capricious termination. People complain about it, but remember, the employer has way more control over the employee than vice versa, and someone being out of work for six months unpaid while some bullshit allegation is investigated tends to ruin them financially. The same amount of money is way easier for an employer of any significance (like a municipal police department) to absorb. No sympathy; for years American employers have not only been able to control your ability to eat and pay rent, but also tell you what doctors you can see, when you can sleep, and can force you to work 24/7 with no repercussions. Then fire you for being 15 seconds late with no recourse.

    About Life Insurance: Get while you are young and healthy, term life insurance 10x your income. Do not just use your employer. Using the employer is fine, but have a 3rd party policy because when you leave your job, you lose your life insurance and if you developed a condition during this time, it is now a pre-existing condition that can exclude you or increase the price of your life insurance policy.
    I am so thankful that even though my husband had life insurance through work, we decided to get additional coverage shortly after he started at his job. He was there for 8 years, and in that time, he became ineligible for life insurance due to his Crohn's diagnosis. If we hadn't decided to get additional coverage while he had employer insurance, he wouldn't have life insurance. We have a child with special needs, one income just isn't enough. If he were to pass, due to illness or accident, my son and I would really struggle.
    This isn't just for men either. Most homes are dual income, but you'd be hard pressed to replace the child care provided by the at-home parent. Both parents need life insurance. I am the primary bread-winner at the moment, I employer furnished and private life insurance. It took me two years to get the private life insurance because they were convinced I had Sleep Apnea, I don't, and wouldn't grant my policy. Persist. Term. Not just through your employer because you may lose your job.
    Sorry for the PSA but this is really important. Most families don't think about this until it's too late.

    • @TheCastIronChancellor
      @TheCastIronChancellor 2 роки тому

      Also, if you have children, make a will. If you don't have a will, the state determines who gets your kids. Most of us have a plan for our kids if we don't make it, just write it down and make sure it's notarized so that those you have chosen to look after your kids don't have to jump through legal craziness to actually care for your children.
      Life insurance and a will are the two most important ways you can protect your family.

    When I was a kid, I clearly remember watching a live New Years special where some escape artist was supposed to escape from a giant glass of Champaign. The whole multi hour build up was people walking by the giant glass and pouring bottles into it. When it finally came time you could clearly see the guy submerged, and he works the key to his cuffs out of his mouth with his lips, drops it, and proceeds to panic. The last thing you see before it cut away was a dude running up to the giant glass with a sledge hammer to break it.
