Just remember, Hydrogen Peroxide does little to disinfect, but probably slows wound healing. So I'm skeptical that it'd be helpful here, since ulcers tend not to have objects you need dislodged.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Hydrogen peroxide help, and I've heard that rinsing your mouth with salt water does too. Mouthwash might help as well, but it hurts like fuck.
I have a sneaking suspicion that all three would be unpleasant.
Do all three at the same time, it's the only way to be sure.

I had to watch a two hour documentary on the Enron Corporation in school today. What a bunch of assholes.

Also, in marketing class we talked about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, and how it applies to advertisements. When we were being shown ads, we had to guess which stage each advertisement was aimed towards. The problem is that, being psychology, the hierarchy is open to some interpretation. Whereas our marketing teacher was not, so any disagreement with what he decided an ad was meant for was shot down quickly.

It really annoyed me, having taken several years of psychology where it was pretty much nothing but debating, and now I'm not able to.

Especially since Maslow's hierarchy of needs is pretty much the worst kind of psychological and meaningless bullshit.

For ulcers, I usually just rub salt into 'em.
I usually dab them with salt. Weirdly it seems to numb the area for a while after.

Salt has minor analgesic properties when dissolved in liquid. Part of why you can be badly injured while swimming in the ocean and not notice until the water around you starts turning red.

Its great for tooth aches, gum sores and ulcers since your gums absorb so much.

Hydrogen Peroxide is for killing the shit out of bacteria.

Yeah, but it doesn't actually do that.

It actually hinders the healing of wounds. It's a byproduct of natural processes in the body, and all oxygen-using living creatures maintain enzymes to break it down.

Hydrogen Peroxide? The stuff used in hospitals a disinfectant and as an antiseptic?

I have a hard time believing it doesn't actually do much.

It does kill bacteria, but only in the sense it can be used to poison most cells, including human ones. Point is, there are better options for dealing with wounds, and using it in that fashion tends to come from a "if it was good enough for your forefathers it'll be good enough for you" point of view.

The power company that did bad shit. I believe there was theft and profiteering involved. Then they went out of business.
