Does it still shred the roof of your mouth or is that too much for it to deal with today?

You have to be patient and let it soak in the milk for a couple minutes. When the outside is soft and there is still a little crunch in the center, it’s ready.

Why would I do that? It doesn't taste as good without the iron from my blood with it. It's just not the same.

The outside is soft? Are you sure that's Cap'n Crunch and not Ensign Wetley Cruncher?

But for the untreated depression you could soak it in booze or at least really strong kefir.

Holy shit! I never understood this one while reading it in Europe, but having lived in Canada for the past ten years gives it finally the context I needed.

Thanks.

Phone phreaking with that whistle is a older than millennials, it's closer to a boomer-era trick.

I'm early Gen X and phreaking was well before my time, too. John Draper was born in 1943 and he and friends discovered the 2600Hz signal and the whistle having that frequency around the time I was born.

All this talk about the old analog phone networks reminds me of this YouTube channel I like to fall asleep to. It's a bunch of recordings made by a phone phreak from back in the day. He narrated his recordings in modern times to explain what he was doing, and then stuck them all on YouTube. I discovered a whole new world that I didn't know existed because it disappeared long before our time.

The quirks of the old phone systems being analog by nature allowed for some really neat things to happen that are impossible today. Such as being able to hear more and more noise being added to the to the signal as each node connects during a long distance call, effectively allowing you to "feel" the distance. Or did you know that if a bunch of people in an area called the same wrong number and shouted loud enough, they could hear each other in between the "your call cannot be completed" recording? It was basically a way for complete strangers to have a conversation with each other in a pre-intenet era. It's some really fascinating stuff.

"...Cap'n Crunch in a flake form would be suicidal madness; it would last about as long, when immersed in milk, as snowflakes sifting down into a deep fryer. No, the cereal engineers at General Mills had to find a shape that would minimize surface area, and, as some sort of compromise between the sphere that is dictated by Euclidean geometry and whatever sunken treasure related shapes that the cereal aestheticians were probably clamoring for, they came up with this hard -to-pin-down striated pillow formation.”

I personally prefer the peanut butter one. It's my favorite of the sugary cereals, tied with the Reese's cereal (but I don't really care for the chocolate bits). Cheerios or grape nuts is my favorite of any cereal
