I think it says something about Tim Duncan that 5 games over .500 is the worst start he has ever had - Beaker Dec 27, 04:28 6

    - Oh, I have to find the Villager. He can get his hands on the common ones. -- nm - Mop Dec 27, 00:03 5
      - I'd import the damn thing from Japan or Europe. Ironically they aren't region locked unlike everything else Nintendo does. -- nm - Qale Dec 27, 00:03 4

- This one is easy. - Ultron Dec 26, 23:36
- i doubt you can trick it -- nm - DaneDukeNuuk Dec 26, 23:06

- Nope. It won't help ... much. - ReluctantYuleLog Dec 26, 21:38 6

- (having asked that, I do think that . . . more IM) . . . - call me Ishmael Dec 26, 21:31 11
  - no, its all in a cup of pee, so dangerous drug users can be clear in a couple days, grass leaks out slowly for weeks -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 26, 22:22
  - I have no idea how it's tested in company drug screenings, but based on past olympic performances, I know it takes a long time to metabolize. Weeks. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 26, 21:33 9
    - For blood or urine tests, it's a matter of just over a week. For hair, it's months. And yes, they do test hair for drugs. - ReluctantYuleLog Dec 26, 21:40 1
      - he should become a skinhead -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 26, 22:46
    - so a sauna won't do any good? I ask because . . . - call me Ishmael Dec 26, 21:40 6
      - Maybe he's looking for a date and not looking to detox *shrug* -- nm - Pippy bells Dec 27, 04:08
      - The synthetic stuff doesn't contain THC, not sure what is in that stuff. I'm also not sure how or if it would show up on a drug test for pot. -- nm - Krusty Dec 26, 22:00
      - all a sauna will do over extended time, is to dehydrate him to the point he needs to go to the hospital - Peglegpete Dec 26, 21:50
      - you'd have to spend hours in a sauna. and he'd pass out if he did that -- nm - Remlik Dec 26, 21:42 2
        
        THC is fat-soluble. sauna wouldn't do shit. -- nm - Reagen Dec 27, 07:09
        
        on the flip side, he could youtube it and make big bucks -- nm - Beryllium Dec 26, 21:43
