So, what does happen if you lick a battery? Yesterday, bats and rabies, today licking batteries. It's like my own personal encyclopedia. Or worst case scenario book. Whatever.
As they mostly said, I'd test the trigger only if it were something I wanted to keep in my life, like red wine or chocolate.
Not sure what I'd do about the knives. I have one good one, and the rest are crap. I use the good one a lot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, what does happen if you lick a battery?
If you touch your tongue to the end of a 9 volt battery, you'll get a shock on your tongue. I did it on a mostly dead battery in the 5th grade - it was freaky....
eta: your tongue would need to touch both terminals of a battery at once, which is why only the 9 volt ones work....

Our wings are not tired.
Not licking the battery. Jealous of those with grocery delivery. Ever so grateful to not get migraines.
eta: All the best thoughts for S and Sean today.

Ah, OK. Makes sense now. And I will take your testing of it as all the proof I need.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
My BF from college is opening the quilt I made for her daughter right now. Then she's gonna call me back.
I am so impatient!!
Gods, I hope she likes it.

YAY! She loved it! I am so glad.
Ok.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Am presently being breastally assaulted by the very cute limpet, but wanted to very quickly say
I do need to get up there and see the baby.....
YES, beth. You really should. It's possible that you in fact must. Same goes for Sparky, Suzi, Betsy and any other localistas who haven't yet seen her in person.
More posting later, after limpeting, bills and laundry.

move out and draw fire
Of course she loved it, Aimee.
I am being dorky. Christmas door decorating contest starts Friday, so I'm making a "Buffy the Vampire Sleigher" winter scene.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Finding out if this one thing is a trigger could indicate if it's a whole family of foods that should be avoided. If you can determine under controlled circumstances, say, that salami is a trigger, that's a signal to cut out all nitrite-containing foods, as that's probably the ingredient to blame.
