            Doesn’t everyone already have rudementary tastebuds in their anus? Isn’t that how spicy food hurts both upon entering and departing?

              “Spicy” isn’t a taste, it’s just a mildly painful chemical irritation. Spicy substances can hurt many sensitive body parts, including the mouth, nose, eyes, anus, and genitals. It’s nothing to do with tastebuds, more to do with thin unprotected membranes in your body being sensitive to chemicals such as capsaicin or allyl isothiocyanate.

          Gotta make sure the fine print isn’t secretly bolstering the Republican voter base?
