My son: Have you ever had a habanero pepper before? I ate an entire one at work tonight - it was orange so I thought it wouldn't be as hot as a jalepeno. You know how your leg falls asleep? That happened to my entire body, my face turned white, and my ears literally felt pressurized for at least fifteen minutes.
Me: Let me guess - this was for money?
He: Yep. $3.00.
I raised my eyebrow at him, giving him a little "I'm-so-glad-I'm-not-a-boy" look.
He: ...in quarters.

I used to be able to eat really spicy food. My friends mother made salsa with habinaro peppers and I could only eat a little of it. I always paid later as well. So for 3.00, not sure I would, tell him next time to smell the peppers. You can smell how hot they are.
That just show initiative, YEP! That boy is gonna go places... Probably in a few hours the bathroom, then maybe the drugstore for some kid of ointment, then to the bathroom again to apply the ointment. Maybe if he has time the arcade to spend the rewards of his intiative.
You did tell him the fun was only half over right? That when the pepper came out the other end there would be flames??
HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!
Boys...and we wonder how they grow up to be the strange men we end up dating....
It explains so much.
Damn if you don't have a set of kawhoonah's!!!
Ahhh boys. Three whole bucks huh?
Darren, that was the funniest comment! Thanks, I really needed a laugh.
(What's so funny is that it's sooooo true!)
BIG HUGS, Steph
oh my god I'm going to cry.. Sher is so right! He's going to be screaming from the toilet!!! hahhaaoooooo that's so freakin funny!
ok, so I'm about ready to loose my marbles and that's just sooo funny!
The description of the aftermath is fucking perfect. He's so your kid. Ooh, he'll be hurting later!
All: I've never eaten anything hotter than the (accidental) tiny bit of juice from a jalepeno, so I had NO IDEA he would be spending the foloowing day in the bathroom. But that's exactly what he did. $3 probably didn't even cover the cost of toilet paper ;)
Yep the hotter the food the more chances in the bathroom later that night or following day. LOL Hope he learned.
AWEsome! I did the same thing last year...it was orange and I am really tough.
I cried. And drank lots of milk. The next day wasn't toooo bad.
Won't do it again. Not even for $3.oo!
#2 Son once drank a bottle of "something" that was left on a bus during the summer.
He got paid $20.
Hah! My son's smarter (er, I mean, greedier) than your son!
p.s. He lived, so: meh. Twenty bucks is 20 bucks.
Today's word verification sounds like something that ALL young boys do during the night:

I'm so classy.
Damn. I grow habaneros, and even I won't eat but a tich of one and it has to be mixed with other food.
