Gee wiz, does nothing we come in contact with poison us at this point? Good luck getting the Chud Administration to do anything. They would probably tell them to add more poison.
Mean while doctors can’t figure out why cancer rates are spiking
Holding a receipt for 10 seconds? Damn. And is there any tell for BPS-reduced or BPS free receipt paper?
I have receipts all over my place, though I organized them all recently. But now I know to handle them with gloves on next time.
The problem is with receipts on thermal paper, not those printed with normal ink, so [edit: ~~many~~ some] receipts are not an issue ~~any more~~.
If you want to tell the difference, you could try applying heat (like a hair dryer or iron) over the receipts and see which ones change color (usually turning grey or black where heated).
Once you find a few, you’ll likely get a feel for which ones are likely to be thermal paper just by looking and you can practice extra care with those. (Tip: they are usually the ones that appear a bit glossy.)
Most receipts use thermal paper that i've seen. You can rub one with a coin quickly and that brings up marks on many.
My question is that is it all thermal paper is problematic or some but there's no telling the difference except to avoid all of that type?
Now if I get some weird cancer one day I'll probably link it to that one joint I hit that was rolled in thermal paper :/
This the second person saying this. What’s up with you guys?
I mean I’ve been in a situation with no rizla myself but I’ve just used the remains of a cigarette after removing the tobacco.
Under retailers using these receipts it lists capital one.
Capital one has stores?
This is a real 1950s, we've sprayed things with carcinogens and poison type problem that there needs to be regulation on. The problem is that usually comes from a lawsuit.
I really wish that every single place I go didn't force me to take a receipt, agh
Where are all the CVS receipt references?
