Warts on my toes are returning, which would be whatever, but there is now a small one forming on my FUCKING FINGERTIP!! Right on my fingerprint. Like, excuse me? We could have lived in peace, but this strain of HPV has forced my hand.

I bought a nitrous oxide freeze device from the pharmacy. I'm going scorched earth on their asses.

Edit: ha ha ha that was farked

B_R has a blowtorch, now Spud has an ice device. That’s fire and ice/water.

We only need someone to get a leaf blower or compressed air gun for air and err… something for earth so we can be elemental benders

I'll get the ryobi out of the shed for you if you like!

Ceramics class? Pottery certainly qualifies as earth bending.

Maybe Taleya with the mortar trowel or a cement mixer

Oooooo yesss the water benders are my favourite in ATLA and Korra!

Did you do it to yourself?

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes it's this product https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/110936/endwarts-freeze-pen-7-5g

It is an unpleasant experience, but my partner has a weaker stomach than I so I did it to myself lol

In 14 days I'll know if it worked or not (one application and then leave it for 14 days)

Oh dear. I have done the can and cotton bud version to the other half and to the child, but I'm not sure I could do it to myself.
