[quote name='mr ryles']my dad just tricked me into taking a bite of a habanero pepper. This was just 10 minutes ago and I am now trying to recover from the damage done to my mouth.
In that 10 minutes I've had 3 ice cubes, drank a bottle of water, ate 4 saltine crackers, and am now working on my 2nd mountain dew.
My tongue is still on fire and my nose is running.[/quote]Everything you did was completely wrong. Water, for some reason, makes hot stuff worse. Ice cubes are a form of water. Would've thought Mountain Dew makes it worse, but after 3 its probably just time taking away the spicy. Crackers were the only smart thing but I don't think they meant saltines for that. This is basically a "what not to do" situation.
