    What makes this a “transistor” battery?

      it’s not so much what it is, but what uses it.

      late transistor radios required small high powered batteries. according to Wikipedia 22.5v batteries were popular in early transistor radios.

      these 9 volt batteries were popular in powering these late transistor radios, the transistors specifically. hence the name.

  The inventor of vaseline ate a spoonful every day. He promoted it as wonder goo, fit for everything and anything. NGL it is pretty great, on the outside. Well, and a fistful of inches deep as well but no farther.

      Interesting they went with a sweet flavour; I always figured since cats are obligate carnivores that sweet things wouldn’t be very attractive to them.

        My cats will drink flat soda or energy drinks if you leave them out. Animals are weird.

        I once had a friend in school who had a rabbit. He took the vegetables off his burger and threw it in the cage with a couple strips of bacon. The rabbit sat on the tomato, devoured the bacon and then nibbled the lettuce a little bit. I still wonder to this day how a rabbit even digests bacon, let alone get an appetite for it.

    Well, the inventor of Vasoline thought so

    Chesebrough lived to be 96 years old and was such a believer in Vaseline that he claimed to have eaten a spoonful of it every day

    Petroleum jelly would work, but it’s not intended for consumption. If you do want petroleum products intended for consumption that will do exactly the same thing, get some mineral oil

      And go a tbsp every hour or so. I’ve seen so many videos of people drinking shots or larger of that stuff and stating they inhabited the bathroom all night.

      If you want jelly, just get some Jello or a jar of jelly. Seriously!

    I don’t know about petroleum jelly, but I know you can drink mineral oil as a laxative, and that’s basically the same stuff just runny.
