Me and my buddies have been drinkin for about an hour or so, so we're all feeling pretty good... One guy walks out, comes back with some unidentified chili peppers fresh from the downtown mexi-market. He holds up 2 of them and says, "Who's a man?"
Not to be outdone, I snatched one up and we both took them down in one bite. I was chewing for approximately 3 seconds before I regretted everything that had happened in the last 5 seconds. Mouth is burning, sinuses have opened the flood gates, eyes are streaming tears... But god dammit, we're drinkin, and this is a man contest... so that whole chili went down.
Me and my buddy spent the next hour and a half in absolute misery, drinking along the way... So we ended up getting super drunk to try and mask it. Well, when one ingests too much alcohol, the body says "fuck you buddy," and begins a mass exodus of the stomach. So I had super-hot chili coming BACK, through my mouth, and this time through my nostrils. So the whole damn thing was happening all over again, burning, tearing, sinuses and mouth on fire..
That was a terrible... terrible night. And if I had to go back... I would do the exact same thing. I've got my pride dammit.
