A retrospective on eating a habanero pepper...

So, last night my room mate and I were walking through the grocery store shopping for things and as we were walking past the peppers he picks one up and says, "If you eat this I'll give you ten dollars." So, I took it from him and ate it. Chewed on it a little bit and then just swallowed it fairly whole. I looked at him and thought to myself this wasn't so bad easy money. Then...the pain set in and my mouth felt like it was on fire. I look at him with tears in my eyes and said , "GET ME A DRINK!" He points behind me and I run to the drink display and down a bottle of juice throwing the container to the side and down another one. I turn and look at him saying, "It's not working." He replies, "MILK!" We go over to the milk and I drink a half gallon of milk. I don't know what went on toward then end but it got to the point where I couldn't drink any more milk without throwing up. So, I threw up all over the back aisle of the store. Finally, I ate some bread and it helped a lot. I did some research on what I ate.

Habenero Pepper.
1."is one of the most intensely spicy species of chili peppers of the Capsicum genus."
2."The "heat" of chili peppers is measured in Scoville units (SHU). Bell peppers rank at 0 (SHU), New Mexico green chilis at about 1,500 SHU, jalapeños at 3,000–6,000 SHU, and habaneros at 300,000 SHU. The record for the hottest chili pepper was assigned by the Guinness Book of Records to the Naga Jolokia, measuring over 1,000,000 SHU. Pure capsaicin, which is a hydrophobic, colorless, odorless, and crystalline to waxy solid at room temperature, measures 16,000,000 SHU."
 
I'd like to point out that the OP is one of Taxi's smurfs, who so happened to show up in his "Why are there no girls on TW" thread.

Rayn, smurf check!
 
I used to raise them in Hawai'i not to eat but to keep pigs and rats outta the garden. I'm kinda sure it kill a rat.
