Indeed.

I keep 'Tiger Balm' for muscle pain and 'Hemocane' (with lignocaine) for me piles.


Yes, they are indeed kept far apart,ever since that unfortunate incident with Vick's Vapour Rub when I was 14 . (the jar looks a bit like a Vaseline jar---)

I don't want to get more graphic than necessary here, but some years ago I thought I'd surprise my Sam with a new menthol-based intimate gel for lovers called Tingle or something. It was a surprise, alright. Menthol things are great for sore throats, but get it anywhere near your more sensitive tissues and you won't half bounce.

She banned its use after that, on threat of a pair of pliers.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

TIL that the CIA hired crazy people.

Seriously, that guy's AMA is possibly the most complete collection of conspiracy theories and other bad science I've ever seen. Wait til you get to the part about plants using cell phones...

There's an image reply for this I want to make, but it doesn't outweigh my desire to not be warned / banned.

TIL that if you intend to OD on prescription drugs, make sure you choose the correct medication and that you have enough of it to finish the job. Half-measures are worse than jack shit. Yes there is a story behind this but I'll leave it at that.

Sorry to strike such a lousy note in an otherwise fun thread.
