    I have to keep reminding myself it's only happening here and not part of the greater internet Cook Out.

    Honestly I think there are actually diminishing to zero returns on talking about Twitter for another second at this stage so we may as well just keep doing this bit

    it would appear that twitter has decided to employ a brief moment of sanity and no longer force you to the "for you" tab every single time you refresh the page, thus increasing my readership of twitter from 0 to 0.00001

    i'd like to think my total abandonment of the website was joined by others and they could see that this monumentally stupid decision was in fact monumentally stupid

    or its a bug, and it will be put back later today

    The nice thing is, there's no reason to fret because there's literally no way to determine whether something at Twitter was a glitch or intentional fuckery.

    Thin glass bottle, highly volatile liquid, extremely sharp edges as a stress riser, yep, that'll break if you heat it up and pressurize the contents.

    That is some THIN glass.

    Kinda think the guy leaving alcohol on a sunny windowsill should know volatile substances vaporize, expand, and pressurize (not to mention impact on taste), but also come on that is a horrible bottle design.

    I didn't know that! I feel like I read more about chemistry and food science than most people do, and if you asked me about that scenario ahead of time I'd be like "I dunno, man, I know beer skunks if it gets hot and I don't reckon tequila gets better when it's warm for a while so probably don't" but I don't think an exploding bottle would be on my list of potential downsides to window sill lightning bottle liquor.

    The guy spent 420 bucks on a bottle of Tequila from Musk.
    Knowledge or critical thinking are among the last things anyone should expect from this demographic.

    alcohol has a vaporization point of 173 degrees, so unless his window is on fucking venus that should not be an issue

    the bottle will get much hotter in shipment than on a persons sill, and the bottle should be designed to resist that

    One of my decanters is a cute globe shaped thing I got as a gift, and the way that the stopper is designed, if you keep alcohol in it the gradual evaporation process will cause it to pop out and loudly fall on the floor

    I've since found a way to balance it atop the neck without creating a perfect seal so that slight amount of evaporation doesn't cause a problem

    The dumb shape could have caused some kind of refractive focus the super heated a spot in the bottle.

    It is not!

    I mean, honestly, the dude talks about how he hadn't even opened the bottle as a point of why this shouldn't have happened, but if it wasn't sealed might have just popped the cork instead of blowing out the side.

    So what you're saying is that the hierarchy of power in tequila has been upended.

    Heat is a red herring, they designed a bottle that couldnt stand up to the pressure of its own contents.

    there's a free chrome extension that removes "for you" entirely as well.
