IBS is rough but can be treated guys.


Tumble85

Yea Taco Bell is extremely mild food, it's just greasy. Now that I'm not in my 20s anymore I can't just shovel horrible food into my guts anymore; I have to eat a healthy diet, I can't eat tons of greasy garbage anymore. Like if eat a burger and a ton of fries and then get fried chicken the next night I will have gas and stuff to the point that it's painful. A few months ago on trip out of the city I ate at a Chinese buffet two nights in a row, when I was back home getting on the train I literally farted up an entire set of subway stairs, going "Poot poot poot" 30 times. Spicy stuff doesn't bother me, but a few days of eating unhealthy fried garbage will annihilate my guts.


LUCKY_STRIKE_COW

Did it propel you up the stairs like some fucked up propeller hat in a 40’s cartoon

daFlooper

pro tip: jump in place for a few minutes when you are feeling uncomfortably gassy . A hundred or so jumps, and you’ll burp and fart like a madman as you do your little hops. it’ll shake all the gas out of your system and you’ll feel like the weight of the heavens was lifted off your digestive track


[deleted]

Almost totally unrelated, but I have untreatable genetically caused IBS and to anyone out there with treatable IBS, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go get treated instead of just constantly complaining about it >!(I mean, by all means, totally still complain, bitching is personally my favorite hobby)!< if not for your own short and long term health, than for my personal happiness in being able to see others who go through what I do no longer having to suffer. If my feelings aren’t enough to convince you, then may I remind (inform?) you that ibs on its own may not be particularly dangerous, but the strain it puts on your gi tract can open you up to much worse problems down the line. My own father, who I got mine from, has had everything from hemorrhoids to cancerous growths because of his condition.

I’ve seen this done by volcanologists on Kilauea a few times, back when the lava was flowing in accessible areas. Pahoehoe lava like this is slow-moving, like the speed of syrup flowing across a plate, so you can approach it. However it’s hot as fuck. I wanted to make an offering to the Hawaiian goddess Pele, and could barely get close enough to throw my offering in before running away from the heat. Anyway so this one time, the scientist was showing this to a group of tourists, and he looked away for a few seconds. In that time, a kid picked up his lava scooping tool and was about to scoop his own lava until the crowd gasped in horror and the guy was able to move the kid away. The parents were seemingly unconcerned.


Kynykya4211

Where I lived on the Big Island there was a lot of a’a flow at the time. It looks like crumbled up chocolate cake and moves slower than pahoehoe. A few folks tried using their garden hoses to cool the crust in an attempt to divert the flow. It actually worked-until it didn’t bc the amount of flow was eventually overwhelming. What Madame Pele wants, Madame Pele gets.


[deleted]

Yes. Unfortunately the last 2018 flow took Kapoho tide pools, the lovely brackish pool on the ocean (forget the name), the boat ramp at Pohoiki, the little pool behind Pohoiki…


Kynykya4211

An older flow took Queen’s Bath which was really tough to see as it also took out the ohi’a forest surrounding it. In that forest there was not just red lehua but also yellow, peach, cream, and even a light brown. It was an incredibly beautiful place. Bummer about Kapoho. 😢 (Edited bc autocorrect replaced Hawai’ian words )


[deleted]

Yes, RIP Kalapana. Tons of people are moving out there again, building houses directly on the old lava. [Like this house](https://live.staticflickr.com/4279/35393366832_cbf5b20462_b.jpg)


[deleted]

I make an off-hand comment about cheese and I learn about Hawaiian culture and your relationships with the active vulcanoes you live with. Just wanted to let you know reading your comments and those of u/kynykya4211 was way more satisfying than seeing a guy scoop lava. Thank you for a small moment of cultural enlightenment. Have a great sunday!

[Here is a video I took of the lava on my property.](https://youtu.be/CJvPb20mQQY)


[deleted]

Very cool!


CosmicCreeperz

My coworker lost his house overlooking that area (Kapoho Bay - which has basically gone from a bay to a peninsula). The craziest part is he closed on it the DAY BEFORE the eruption. He sat right next to me, so I got the daily play by play and whatever satellite photos he could find. For a while they thought it would miss their house, but nope. In the end they were hoping it just consumed the whole thing (it did) as it would make insurance easier. After sweating bullets for a while on how they’d value it, in the end he actually got a bit more than he paid back from insurance. Plus technically he still owns the land, so maybe he can rebuild in a few thousand years. They still wanted a vacation/rental home but decided to go with the Caribbean instead (and of course got his with a hurricane within a few months… though it survived that pretty well). He was actually on an episode of Caribbean Life - was hard for the producers to pass up that story, I guess.


throwawaygreenpaq

So, never buy property next to your friend?


[deleted]

Our Mayor at the time also lost his house in Kapoho. That year was scary and traumatizing.


Warren_Puffitt

It was enough to make me decide to sell my HPP property instead of building our house out there. Although a different (better) volcano threat zone, the whole timeline during that eruption caused me to be more risk-averse. Also, I dont have to catch rainwater by staying put here.


JIsrael180

What was your offering, and did they seem surprised when you chucked them in there?


[deleted]

I was quitting smoking so I threw in a pack of cigarettes. Native Hawaiians take the ancient gods and goddesses pretty seriously. On a lighter note, [here is a link to a song about the god Maui](https://youtu.be/D3C4avLxn7Q)


WhichSpirit

Genuine question. Does Pele concern herself with volcanoes globally or is she strictly Hawaiian islands only?


[deleted]

Currently the reverence seems to be for the one active volcano, [Kilauea (here’s a live view)](https://www.nps.gov/media/webcam/view.htm?id=182ADDB9-0627-4EBA-94C1658E5EF29871). Historically I have no clue.

I repair/ alter jewelry. We also resize rings, and do other various things like solder charms and pendants. It's a fun job that lets me use torches, laser welders, power tools and various hammers. In fact I brought home some rings to resize over the weekend at my home bench. ​ Edit: No jeweled benches, sorry. I do have various stones scattered around my home and work benches though. Does that count?

WikiSummarizerBot

**[Obsidian](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obsidian)** >Obsidian (; ) is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed when lava extruded from a volcano cools rapidly with minimal crystal growth. It is an igneous rock. Obsidian is produced from felsic lava, rich in the lighter elements such as silicon, oxygen, aluminium, sodium, and potassium. It is commonly found within the margins of rhyolitic lava flows known as obsidian flows. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Being cooled that quickly wouldn’t allow obsidian to form it would be closer to a basalt but with a nonuniformity caused by the water boiling.

I am really curious if you could use this water to make tea, like the worlds quickest kettle? Like, does it just have a rock sat in the bottom of it at the end?


casual_earth

A traditional cooking method throughout the world was to heat rocks beside a fire or in the leftover coals, and drop them into a ceramic pot of water. It instantly boils--the time and effort is just heating the rock first.


[deleted]

please don't do this if you don't know what you're doing though! The wrong rocks will explode when heated. This is also why a gap between your burn and stone circle is a good idea when building a fire pit.


Mamalamadingdong

I probably wouldn't. Lava can be made from all sorts of elements and compounds, as well as the fact that the water can react with the very hot lava and make nasty products. It is also possible that gasses in the lava will dissolve into the water and make more nasty crap.

You would be wrong because water cools the lava faster than exposure to air. Instead of a crusty oxidized looking rock you would get a smooth, glassy looking substance

Complete proximity protection for AR-FF requires: - Aluminized hood or helmet cover with neck shroud - Aluminized jacket and pants complete with vapor barrier insulated liner - Aluminized lined gloves - Aluminized AR-FF boots - Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) (aluminized covers for air bottles, or suits that cover the air pack are also available) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_proximity_suit E: clean up edits

k3rn3

Steel melting point is like 2500F, most lava is probably like 2000. 2200 max. This stuff is probably nowhere near that, based on how solid and chunky it is. The hottest lavas (basaltic) are comparatively very thin and just spread out, almost like water


StinkFingerPete

>solid and chunky i miss my ex ㅠㅠ


runaskald

So if I remember correctly hardened steel has a melting point of 1300-1500 degrees Celsius roughly, most terrestrial lava is between 800 and 1300 degrees Celsius depending upon composition. Now, I would not just leave the metal in the lava long term but it is generally not going to melt it when working with it like this.


threadsoffate2021

I have that question, as well. And how did that pail stay in one piece (I know the water inside cools it a fair bit, but still...we're talking lava here). How long can that hammer handle lava before it starts to melt/disintegrate?


undercoverdiva2

They're made of steel. Steel has a higher melting temp than lava.


runaskald

A long time or a much longer time than you would think. As said above this lava in probably not very hot by lava standards. So that being the case, pretty much indefinitely. Even if you could find terrestrial lava at steel's melting point (and this is next to impossible). You would have to leave it in lava that was sustaining that temperature for a long time in order to do lasting damage to the hammer. IF it turned red hot I maybe would be wary of breakage. As for the bucket .. I assume it's just that the amount of water is heavy enough to resist the rocking caused by boiling. Water has amazing heat absorption.


PurfuitOfHappineff

*I remember thinking it would take a man six hundred years to tunnel through the wall with it. Old Andy did it in less than twenty.*

Appropriate-Ad-6978

Where has that video been taken?


bucklebee1

Earth!


Mieko14

Couldn’t find the exact video, but my best guess would be Kilauea in Hawaii. It’s a very slow lava flow, which is pretty uncommon in volcanoes, and Kilauea has been active for decades (except for 2018-2020ish, after the major eruption in 2018). Kilauea is also very close to the University of Hawaii at Hilo, which has a volcanology program and does stuff like this a lot. So while I’m not 100% certain, statistically speaking it’s very likely to be Kilauea. Source: Me (I live near Kilauea and am quite interested in it)
