I think you should put some sort of waffle between them. And maybe a little bit of potatoes or something.
The ISS is all out of fuel and needs to make an emergency maneuver to avoid a collision. Can an astronaut stick his dick through the window and pee really hard to accelerate the spacecraft out of harms way?

Depends on the specifics of the situation, however in any situation where sticking your dick out would help, you could with at least the same effectiveness also just grab something you don't need and throw it as hard as you can out of the airlock.
For example, i know that there is an acoustic guitar on the ISS. Lets assume that it has a mass of ~ 3kg. If you pee 1l at a time, for the same effective change in trajectory you would have to pee at a velocity that is three times higher than if you would throw the guitar.
However, according to random data i found on the internet, the ISS has a mass of ~420 tons. So doing a simplified calculation with conservation of impulse as a basis, if you throw your guitar out of the airlock with a velocity of 10m/s (I have no idea how hard one can throw a guitar while wearing a spacesuit, this is my guess), you would add a speed vector with a value of 10*3/420000 m/s= 7.1*10^-5 m/s, or 71µm/s. So to dodge anything relevant with that change of movement, lets say you want to move the ISS 70m out of the way of something, you would need to know about 1million seconds beforehand, or 280 hours.
(These are incredibly simplified calculations completely ignoring any orbital mechanics because i am too lazy. My estimate is that orbital mechanics would reduce the effect of this even further)
The speed of your pee is ~3m/s, and your average pee is ~500-750ml. Doing the same calculations as above, we gain a Delta-v due to pee of ~ 5µm/s, and to dodge 50m out of the way would require you to pee 115 days before the critical event.
Thus, you could probably just launch a supply rocket.

You greatly overestimate the negative effects of Vacuum onto the human body. You will neither instantly freeze nor explode in a vacuum. It is not a good idea to go into a vacuum, though. Other, less cinematic effects can kill you rather quickly. But if you just kinda seal off your dick pretty well, you should be able to survive your space pee and return to the cabin, if you are quick enough.
The urine is expelled by a special muscle found in the wall of the bladder (detrusor muscle). It remains relaxed to allow the bladder to store urine, and contracts during urination to release urine.
This is a smooth muscle that is controlled involuntarily. Therefore the only way to train it is to pee a lot.
It is also important to know that when astronauts urinate in space, the urine rapidly boils into vapor, which immediately desublimates (crystallizes directly from the gas to solid phase into tiny urine crystals). It might serve as a reaction mass to create momentum, however there may not exist obstacles small enough to avoid in this manner.

I recall seeing a short film of an astronaut who was testing space suits in a vacuum chamber. His suit sprang a leak, and near instantly the guy went unconscious - in the video there was a handrail close to the airlock - and he just keeled straight over it. He commented that the last thing he remembered was the sensation of his tongue bubbling.
Yes, you do go unconscious rather quickly if you are in a low pressure situation, apparently within ~15 seconds. You do not freeze solid or explode, though, which is what a surprising amount of people seem to believe due to Hollywood. If you stick your dick in a vacuum, neither would it instantly freeze, nor get ripped of/explode.
Depending how well sealed off the rest of your body is, you might not even fall unconscious quickly, see Joseph Kittinger/Excelsior III, " Pressurization for his right glove malfunctioned during the ascent, and his right hand swelled to twice its normal size but he rode the balloon up to 102,800 feet before stepping off."
So, vacuum can even make your dick bigger! (Edit: Do not try this at home. Or anywhere else.)

Simberto, this is now you in my head sans the crappy acting, more the application of vacuums.
Anyone notice there is practically no rage/'steam' being let off about games other than SC2 in the "Letting off steam" thread? It makes sense that there would be mostly SC stuff but it feels like there should be more Dota, Hearthstone, LoL rage?

However, your pee would probably freeze your dick really quickly. It will subliminate instantly in a vacuum, which extracts energy from your penis. I am not sure that it will be enough; it will also depend on the speed at which this subliminating liquid leaves the vicinity of your penis, but it is probably enough to give you frostbite on the tip, which will hurt like a motherfucker.
However, I think the whole topic is worth serious scientific consideration and please PM me if you feel like coauthoring a submission to a journal, exploring the very real possiblities of space navigation through the expulsion of bodily fluids. We can evaluate the impulse generated by spitting, peeing and even pooing (or catching it and then throwing it, for added propulsion) in space!
Well, i have mentioned the main problem with that earlier, namely the extremely lacking amount of Delta-V obtained from such an action. Peeing is strictly inferior to guitar-throwing as a propulsion technique.

Strawberry sponge cake happens to be my speciality. :D Got my mothers recipe, and everyone always love it. Note that it is best prepared the day before.
You need: sponge cake (do you need recipe for that?) frozen strawberries (around 750g is good for a 21-23 cm diameter sponge cake) sugar custard (not too liquid) whipped cream fresh strawberries for decoration. 250g is plenty
- mash the strawberries with about 1.5 deciliter of sugar. You want the juice out, but still a bit chunky. you COULD run it in a blender, but then very little, as it tends to get too liquid and it's harder to work with. - Cut the sponge cake horizontally into three pieces (so cut it twice). This can be damn hard! Use a long bread knife, cut straight in to the middle of the sponge cake, and then cut around (using small back and forth sawing motion) in a circle veeeery carefully. Let this take time if needed, as it it can screw things up if it fails. - Put the sponge cake slice with the hardest crust face down on the tray you will serve it on (you wont be able to move it again), so that the soft cut faces up. This is to let the sponge cake absorb the stuff you put on top, while having the crut at the bottom to prevent it going too soggy at the bottom. - Spread 1/3 of the strawberry mash on the slice, then 1/3 of the custard. Start in the middle and let it flow out. It is ok if it overflows a bit, so that it covers the side of the sponge cake as well. - Take the other slice with crust, and place it with the crust facing down on top of the first slice. Spread another 1/3 of the strawberry mash and custard on top. again, some overflowing is ok, even wanted. - Take the last slice, that'll be the slice without crust and place it on top, and spread the remaining strawberry mash and custard on top. Make sure it's overflown enough that the sides of all layers are covered in strawberry/custard. - wrap it in aluminum foil and place it in the fridge overnight, to soak the sponge cake through. This can in theory be skipped, or cut down to less time, if you are in a great hurry, but it really makes a big difference. - Just before serving, cover the cake (top and sides) in whipped cream and decorate with fresh strawberries. You can for example cut them in half and make circles on the top and down the sides, but as you want. - Come up with a good reaction to all the compliments you'll get. - Serve.
The interior turns pretty red/pink from the mash and custard, and the strawberries you decorate with will be red. I guess you could add some caramel colour to the wipped cream if you want it to be really super red, but the white is a nice contrast otherwise.
Oh, and I guess you could add the caramel colour to the sponge cake as well if you really want to. And why not the custard while you are at it...

Let me explain. We all encounter in a week some little situation where you are frustrated.
Example: When you drive and a fucking cyclist block you When u wait at the maul that the retard just before you takes an eternity to pay When ur girl is yelling at you for no fucking reason etc etc
And u did nothing. Cuz u are well educated and calm. But...
Sometimes I feel it's just too much to keep. I dream about punch in the face the fucking cyclist, yelling on this retard who takes 2hours to pay and bag his stuff or tell my girl to let me alone that's not my fucking problem.
So I replace fighting by playing football or running. But dude come on ... I really need to fight someone. That's a little bit difficult to explain, and my English is really bad but ... did someone feel the same as me ?
PS : 1ST RULE : DO NOT TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.
Being frustrated is one thing. Wanting to beat someone up because they inadvertently caused you a minor hassle is a problem, I'd say. Especially when you follow it up with:
But dude come on ... I really need to fight someone.
No, you don't. You just want to. I'll go out on a limb and say you want to because you've never really done it before - or if you have, it was an extremely minor altercation.
I've trained in Muay Thai for 15 years and BJJ for about 8. I have seen some hard, hard, hard fighters, and you know what? None of them want to just go out and beat someone up because they're slow in line at the grocery store. They're actually the calmest, most reasonable people I know; and that's because they know a) fighting comes at a cost to both parties - engaging with a stranger is unnecessary risk, and b) they have the confidence and assuredness to roll with whatever life throws at them.
I get that you're frustrated - we all get frustrated from time to time; but playing out some tough-guy fantasy in your head, to the point where you want to hurt someone, is not healthy. It implies (to me at least) that there are other issues in your life that are causing you to feel like you have limited control over your life and it's manifesting as this odd hyper-aggressive fantasy - which, interestingly (and thankfully) you are not acting upon.
TL:DR - While I'm sure others have experienced what you have, I wouldn't say it's healthy or the norm. Most reasonable and content people don't fantasize about punching their gf in the face because she's angry, or beating up a stranger because they took too long in line at the mall. Seriously.
wow dude You really think too much. TOO MUCH
Its normal to be frustrated, everyone feels that. I don't want to punch a random dude, you don't understand the situation. You take it too personally man. I don't need to study muay thai for 10years to understand this xD It's just sometimes a little things makes u really angry (bike VS car stuff etc)
