Pepper ignorance

lol, it was a slow building pain, took a min to even kick in. best comparison is like someone duct taped a cigarette to it and the cherry kept getting closer and closer. first it was mild and barely noticeable and then after a few minutes I was squirming and a few more minutes I was dancing around whining and ran to the shower.
The time I tossed a bunch of reaper and moruga flakes into the coffee grinder and opened it in the kitchen immediately effectively nuking the house and my girlfriend who was standing next to me. She ran out the room gagging and screaming " I fcking hate you, I fcking hate you" over and over.
That hurt a lot. Talk about clearing some sinuses. I had snot pouring for almost an hour.

Where I live there's not much "hot pepper culture", and many people call every hot pepper the same: "ají puta parió" (which translates something like "fuck! chilli", like one is to say "fuck!" after eating one, or at least that's how I interpret the name). So sometimes, in a market, I see a pepper I don't know and ask what type of pepper it is, and they always answer the same -Oh, that one is a 'puta parió'.
So the literal meaning, if I remember the little Spanish I've picked up over the years, and from high-school is "whore's baby coming out". That is kind of a funny name for a pepperMabuse said:
- guessing thats tied to the ring sting haha.
Well i lost the labels of some peppers and had to guess which one is "Fatalii" and which one "Numxe Suave". So far so good, the fruits from the first plant were orange to red so i tought that must be the "Numex".
I ate a little fruit and it turned out to be mild, so i made the mistake to eat another fruit. Hell no-- i didnt knew a pepper could start the burn that late. After 3 Minutes my ears began to whistle and i got panic attacks. Never had such a freaky burn,
Well it turned out that it was a "Fatalii Red" instead of a "Yellow". I learned the hard way to label my chilis correct.

This is more hot pepper powder related, I have a one pound container of Naga, Brain strain, Jonah, Pepper powder that I made over a year ago. So I decided to share some with my Chiropractor so I gave him a small Herb bottle of the power, but failed to label it. 
He took it home and his wife found it and tasted it thinking it was maybe Paprika or Cumin as it was unmarked.
He said his wife ran around screaming "what is this stuff " followed by I'm going to kill you, if you don't label things". "Oh my god my mouth won't stop burning! Needless to say, He now label things he gets from me.

Fatalii are weird like that. The heat doesn't really start to build until after you swallow and seems to affect people far more than its hab-like heat rating would suggest.
Makes the absolute best vinegar for use in salad dressings though.
