20,000 of one, seven billion of the other... *shrug*

No kidding. Seriously amateur work if it’s real.

Desoxyn (the prescription form of meth)(yeah, you can totally get a prescription for meth!) is a tablet, too, not a gelcap. I mean, I guess you could drain a legit gelcap and refill it with meth... but that seems like a lot of extra effort and you’d have to dilute the meth.

Working drive-through isn’t a bad place to be a drug dealer. Some poor guy somewhere may be pissed off he didn’t get the pills he paid for.

assuming bro didn’t just make it all up, which is more likely.

Not really, no. We’ve still got liberals up here. =) (I grew up in MO.) Not for lack of the Kochs’ trying... they poured money into the rural areas trying to smear the DFL candidates.

There was a guy in my hometown who would do that! Was, past tense; he got shut down after a girl got mauled taking her senior pictures with a tiger.

Hells to the yes. I’m starting my second year on the tenure track; he has a contract research job and is looking forward to staying at home. Not a hard decision.

My mom’s from Philly and a military brat... until I was in my mid-20s I thought “shit on a shingle” was the official name. I was describing it to someone and they filled me in that normal people call it “cream chipped beef on toast.”

Mostly when tired and jet-lagged, yes! Or when the lighting is low but not completely dark. Brains are weird.

aaaand I just realized this article is like three years old. Carry on.

It’s mostly those who Are Doing who have to teach and resent it. You can often buy your way out of teaching classes with grant money, but at least at my grad school, you had to teach one. Per year. And when they instituted that policy, people were *pissed.* How dare they make tenured professors actually teach? =P

I’m…

Congrats!!

I think this is the first year they’re allowing adults with asthma to get the nasal dose. I am SO on that.

Yeah, because colds can cause infertility, meningitis, and deafness, on top of making you more susceptible to other diseases for *years* afterward. Totally.
I was sick for three months with pertussis as a healthy, exercising, well-eating adult. (that was before we realized adults needed boosters, and living in an area…

Tetanus shot every ten years, which for an adult means the Tdap - tetanus, diptheria, and acellular pertussis. (We’re finding that the pertussis part doesn’t last ten years... maybe five if you’re lucky - researchers are working on it! So if you have asthma or something, it might be worth asking your doctor about…

They usually pick two or three of the most likely flu strains to use in the annual vaccine. If they’re wrong and you catch a different strain, you still get some protection; you might still get sick, but not AS sick.

Most flu deaths are babies and elderly, but some years a strain circulates that kills more healthy…

Sheer terror is my barrier. I was in serious pain and puking my guts up in the ER once, and they still needed five people to hold me down to get the IV line in.

ooh ooh ooh people who might know. afaik, I have never used any kind of hallucinogen (except that one accident with the NyQuil as a kid when my mom dosed me and I chased imaginary white balloons around the house at midnight), but this still happens to me sometimes. Walls breathe, bathroom tiles shift around, stars…

Yup. My Big Ten university started Trash to Treasure - whatever got left behind went into a giant rummage sale held over the summer. (Not the alcohol, sadly. I’m sure there was a lot; people go to this school for the drinking.) Proceeds go to the United Way.

Indeed. If they can get innocent people to admit to murder, they could drive a terrified, depressed person to suicide after three days of mental and physical abuse.
