Duxperiment 002: Mailing Pear

Somebody once told me that they had successfully mailed a banana (only the banana, not in a box or anything) to their friend. I had my doubts about this, so I decided to try and mail something more solid, and to the other side of the coast. Donna, I am going to send you a pear!

+/- Duxperiment 002


Wrote down the address in sharpie, and headed to the post office in Ackerman!

Got in line, waited my turn, and then finally when it was my turn, I asked,

"How much to send this?"

I decided not to ask if I can actually send it or not.
The post office girl replies,

"Uhh... I'll have to weight it"

She's smirking lol
It was $2.24 to send it, and when I was about to stick the stamps onto the pear she stopped me and said,

"Ohh, we can't send the actual pear it has to be in something..."

"Why not?"


"Because it's pe(a)rishable."

I didn't ask if that pun was intended, but it was pretty funny.


0 for 2 so far yaaaaaaay

Duxperiment 001: Milk Tea


I think it might be fun to record random experiments (random + experiements = duxperiments [pronounched DUUUHHH-x-periments], also because they're fucking dumb).

I heard that mixing sugar and milk with tea makes milk tea. Which makes perfuckt sense.

So, my roommate (Jenny) and I tried it in our floor lounge at 1:00 AM. She had to do her calc hw, and there were other people studying in there.

Nevertheless, the calls of science cannot be ignored.

Anyway, we were looking for a substitute for sugar and the best we could come up with was Jenny's Nutella. That shit is sooooo good.

Of course,


it tasted like crap mixed (it didn't really mix) with tea and milk.

Jenny thought it tasted like wood.
I'm pretty sure wood tastes better than that.
Sometimes, Jenny and I don't agree.

Today was such a productive day :)
