Best Sex Position.

Best method of cooking potatoes.

This information will make me a better person in a lot of ways.

[Arx]

Silesian dumplings with some kind of meat sauce and some kind of salad/relish or butter or actually anything, even just Silesian dumplings without anything else.
They're so fucking cool, you can even eat them when they're cold, but they get a bit stale. Still cool.

Well, I decided to do some empirical testing, and made some Klöße (with gravy) for supper. I messed them up a bit, it being my first time and all, but they were pretty good. I'd say they're even with mash.

Rösti. [/thread]

New topic?

New topic?

As long as we all agree spuds are best

Errr... Preferred method of suicide? Mine's long drop hanging: Quick, effective, relatively painless, and fairly clean as long as your head isn't ripped straight off.

[Loud Whispers]

The obvious ones are:
*Ill prepared expedition up a mountain or into the north pole
*3 whole Heliums
*Into the ocean holding a cannonball

[Bumber]

Well, I don't know how practical it would be, but some kind of instant brain explosion would probably be the most painless. You could light a stick of dynamite in your mouth, but that would be messy.

*Ill prepared expedition up a mountain or into the north pole

Are you planning on letting the other guy die with you?

[Strife26]

Gunshot. It's traditional and effective if you're competent.

[Graknorke]

Being in a room full of carbon dioxide, probably. Literally painless, just like going to sleep. Plus there's not really a concrete "point of no return" to get anxious about.
This is a weird conversation though.

[Sheb]

Boltgun to the head, followed by a gunshot or something? I mean, those are pretty much designed to kill large mammals as efficiently and painlessly as possible.

AFAIK carbon dioxide does hurt - a lot - because carbon dioxide in your blood tells your body that it's not getting enough oxygen. Some other inert gas would work though, nitrogen probably is the most easily availible option.

[Sheb]

Maybe he meant carbon monoxide though? That is supposed to work pretty well: we regularily have people dying from CO poisoning because their heater is badly maintained: the thing get on you and you don't even notice you're falling asleep.

There's no mechanism in the body for detecting low oxygen, but being oxygen deficient for a long while can cause vomiting and stuff, so I guess that would be bad. But if you were making an effort at killing someone then they should be unconscious before that stuff starts.

[Sheb]

You don't directly detect low oxygen concentration, you detect CO2 concentration (via pH chance cause by the formation of H2CO3) as a proxy. So if someone was getting tons of CO2, he'd feel as if he was suffocation.
