the ghost peppers, 10.7.24

my parents grow peppers every year as my dad favors spicy food. a few years ago, they grew carolina reapers, but i don’t think they’ve grown any since. they have been growing ghost peppers every year, though. though i’m getting into spicy food (slowly, but surely), my tolerance is very low. some would even go to say extremely low. there are freshly-picked ghost peppers on the counter and my intrusive thoughts are wondering what it would be like to eat one of them. like how bad can it be? i should probably go to bed, but if i eat one of these i’ll be going somewhere else lol.

intrusive thoughts, what are we to do with them?
