Would be scary if it caught those flashing moments of doing something extreme all of us experience and acted on it (ie, walking by a ledge and thinking of throwing your new laptop off it).
- RevRal 17y agowalking by a ledge and thinking of throwing your new laptop off it Whoa, that just gave me chills. When I used to work for fast food, every time I walked by the deep fryer with a bucket of ice I'd wonder about all the things that would happen if I just decided to dump in the ice.
- jmagar 17y agoA whole bucket might chill the oil sufficiently to reduce the risk... But I can tell you a single ice cube does make a mess, and a lot of noise. First the cube sinks, so you won't be able to get it back easily if you want to abort. It rattles around the bottom of the fryer as it melts and then converts to steam. The bubbles of steam rise and splatter violently. (I got in a bit of trouble that night, as the patrons could hear the commotion in the dining room.)
- sp332 17y agoReminds me of the old movie Forbidden Planet. The aliens made a computer system that responded to thought - the civilization wiped itself out in a single night of unconscious thought. You should see it, it's a fun old sci-fi movie.
