Jig-A-Loo illegal in California

[SuperNerd]

California.

Poor Chris Bird... It is his favorite brand! (correct me if I'm wrong.)

His favorite brand is now the lube that comes with Maru 2x2's.

I have a question about different lubes.

Since Jig-A-Loo will soon be illegal in my state, I heard that RC Shock Oil is a good alternative to Silicone Spray.

Does anyone know how it makes cubes feel?

If you have ever lubed a cube with Vaseline, it's kind of like that. It feels pretty good in my own opinion, however it's not something you want to get carried away with.

Yeah, it gives more resistance to the sides. So you have to push harder to turn a side. I hate it.

I kinda understand this, but I think the government went a bit too far there..

Why? It's reasonable to ban harmful substances.

It's only harmful if used it to much quantity or in a badly ventilated space. Just like spray paint.

I, being the republican I am, think the government is way overstepping it's bounds. They forced the warnings on there, which is fine, allow the public to know it's harmful. But banning it? That's bull----.

Next they will be banning plastic bags because someone could suffocate, forks because they can be dropped and stab your toe, and newspapers because angry old men/paper boys will seriously injure someone with throwing it.

This is just nuts.

I'd bet there are some people who would prefer a nicely lubed cube to clean air.

and i'd bet you'd find them on this forum

While this is a somewhat tricky subject, saying that the government banning something that is harmful constitutes it "way overstepping it's bounds"
is silly.

People die from drowning every year, let's ban water. And buckets! And leaving your house!

But seriously, just keep buying it online if you can. Nobody's going to come to your house and stop you.

lolgovernment.

Toothpaste is harmful if used inappropriately, should it be banned as well?

Water is harmful if used inappropriately. Inhale too much, you can pretty much die.

Well, just about everything has been known to the state of California to cause cancer.

People in California have cancer. Therefore, living in California is known to result in cancer. They should ban living in California.

It hurts my eyes when I look at the sun. We should ban the sun. Also we should ban lightbulbs because you can hurt your eyes looking at those. But we might as well just do a blanket ban and ban the cause of that light, photons. Also, protons are related to radiation (which is related to light!!!) which is related to cancer, so we should ban protons. And hydrogen has a proton, so we should ban hydrogen. Hey, water has hydrogen in it, we need to ban water. ****, since protons and photons are banned, I say we should ban all particles. I won't be happy until the universe is completely rid of matter. Also, energy is connected with matter, so we'll ban that. Screw thermodynamics, we're getting rid of matter and energy. [/useless]

... Banning 'harmful' things is stupid, unless you're restricting access for a very young child who wouldn't know what's dangerous. If you're stupid enough to do something dangerous (drugs, fast driving, etc.) and die, you deserved it. I know that sounds extreme, but as far as I'm concerned it is true. If you inhale deadly gases, I don't care. Someone I knew died from doing that, trying to get high. Good riddance, one less stupid person.

People need to stop looking towards the government to become a nanny state, admit to their own stupidity and irresponsibility, and stop relegating those responsibilities to the government.

Any banning of Jig-a-Loo is irrelevant to me, besides the ethics behind it. I don't think Jig-a-Loo is even sold in Australia. At least I finally found some CRC.

I disagree. We are surrounded by harmful substances every day. Its our responsibility to protect ourselves. I don't go chugging gasoline from the pump when I refill my car, but if I did it would probably kill me.
