Hn, we keep the eggs we're using in the fridge but extra cartons go in the cupboard. There's not much reason to refridgerate them as they won't go off unless broken or left a long time and we eat enough eggs that the latter will never happen.

Yeah, basically what Mech#4 said

Eggs are refrigerated here. I always assumed they'd go bad sooner if they weren't.

Not that I often see a rotten egg.

Depending on where you are from store bought eggs are generally about a month old and are usually good for at least another two weeks outside of refrigeration. Refrigerated eggs are good for between 3 and 4 months from the day they are laid. I stuff my eggs into the fridge since my chickens lay between 6 and 9 a day. I can't eat that many eggs every day.

I also sell my eggs, and people are a little put off if the eggs have not been stored in a fridge for some reason. You can also freeze eggs, which is a good thing to do if you don't eat eggs often and don't expect to go through a dozen or so within a reasonable amount of time It lets you get good deals on eggs without worrying about eating them all right away, or using up fridge space for more than a few eggs at a time.

I've had a lady at the supermarket I work at insist that our eggs were 'near-frozen' and that this was terrible somehow. I desperately wanted to say 'Yes ma'am. That's called refrigeration.'

You should get some eggs, leave them under a radiator or out in the sun or sth, then offer her those if she complains again.

Or probably not, I don't know how funny your boss would find it.

This entire site.

Simply learning that people refrigerate chicken eggs was... woah O.o

Besides that, running outta helium sounds wtf too D:

That thing about the helium running out? It scares the fuck out of me to consider that breathing in just a little bit to make your voice high and chipmunky will one day be an experience relegated exclusively to the bourgeoisie.

I see no issue with doing the exact same thing with hydrogen. Sure, it burns, but not explosively, and we will never run out of hydrogen.

At least not until we use all of it in fusion reactors. But then we'll have helium again, so it's okay.

[Rose]

If we run out of sources of hydrogen, we'll have bigger issues on our hands.

Bacon and maple syrup ale.

Yes, I've seen them advertise that at one of the local liquor stores.  I won't go near the stuff, it just sounds nasty.

[Reelya]

Is it as bad as 'Viper'? (doubles as a response, and a WTF? in itself)

Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe? Never underestimate man kinds ability to exhaust a resource!
Humanity: We take it, because it's there!

EDIT: Dammit kaijyuu, don't edit your post making mine less relevant!

I woke up at 7:38. I leave for school normally at 7:40. I scrambled to get ready, and made it to school before the bell. Then I looked at my phone. It read 6:54. Que me just sitting there, staring at it for a good couple of minutes. Now I'm back at home, in glorious warmth.
