Don't Pour it down the sink!
First thing is a potato or starch to absorb the extra spice. Take a raw potato, peel it, cut in two or 3 pieces, (if it is a good size). You will be tossing it out later since it will act like a sponge and you do not want to eat that! :)
Also what works is a bit of lemon juice. Cooking has a lot of chemistry to it and the lemon juice will balance many different spices.
Plus, if you drink beer, add a beer to it, it will act like the starch of the potato and adds a nice flavor. I suggest a good pilsner, one that uses barley with their hops and not corn like many high volume breweries.

add butter or anything milky or yogurty. Milk contains casein, a lipophilic protein that surrounds and washes away the fatty capsaicin molecules (which cause the 'burn') in much the same way that soap washes away grease. A nice heavy beer will do the trick too, to a lesser extent.

Salt works very well, it tends to deaden the nerve receptors that get over powered by too much capsaicin. Mexican and Tex-Mex dishes are often quite salty for this exact reason.
Buy a box of surgical gloves from your local big box grocer or online, keep them in the cupboard and wear them when cutting chilies. I make a tremendous amount of Chile products (salsa, curries, Thai food, chili, ect.) and am never without a pair of surgical gloves while slicing and dicing. Habeneros, Naga Jolokia, bird's eye chiles will all rock you like a freight train if you get them on your skin and then touch any sensitive area of your anatomy (they can also burn your less senstive parts). Rubber surgical gloves are disposable and allow you the fine motor skills needed to chop things in small pieces.
Should you choose not to heed my advice and get a bunch of the oils on your hands remember, washing in water will do little to remove the oils. Try a couple of Tbsp each of baking soda and water mixed to a paste instead of soap to get the oils to scrub off of your hands. The heat of the peppers lives in the oils which aren't water soluable, water just pushes the oils around.
Jalapeno burns can be cured immediately by cutting an onion slice and rubbing it over the affected area. It is an instant cure. One has to be "tough" but by eating a small onion sliver after eating extremely hot peppers will also make it go away!
Eat crackers, bread, or something with starch in it...drinking milk also helps.
If it is home-made, add more tomatoes to it. For store-bought, add more tomato sauce.
You can try adding more of the other ingredients and add some sugar
Wash your face and if it is still burning put your face in milk or ice cold water.
a lot of milk and whipped cream-eat and drink it don't add it to the recipe unless you want to
by eating tlas
Tomato paste works!
Like the too much salt remedy, try adding a peeled potato to see if it will absorb some of the strong flavor... You can also try adding sugar to counteract the strong onion flavor. Nothing to lose.
Try adding a little sugar to take the tartness away.

Mix it up with dirt now! As it is very strong unless it is composted.
No. It is named Tabasco Sauce because one of the ingredients is tabasco chili. Besides that, such product is wholly manufactured in the US.
Don't do it! Unless you want to spend every waking (and many sleeping) moments on the toilet! Too much fiber, too much water and too much sugar. You need something solid to counteract all of that and balance the amount of work your digestive tract must do. - wjs1632 -

Indeed. There are three ingredients in Tabasco sauce: Tabasco peppers, vinegar and salt.
