Title: this stuff is magic - total off topic
Post by: madbean on September 23, 2014, 03:52:23 PM
Seriously. It will stop a runny nose dead in less than 10 minutes. It's making me a bit tingly up in here.

Pretty sure snorting it would cause seizures.

I gotta get some of that as I've been down for days now.  I thought I was going to skip this round as I was the only healthy one in a house full of plague bearers.  It felt like being the lone human left at the end of a zombie movie.  No humans left now.....

I got the joke part, I too was going to make a comment about snorting it.  Having snorted Altoids on a dare, I can only imagine that Alka Seltzer would be that much worse. :o

Ah Alka Seltzer, the magical hangover cure!

They either make or break you. They can bring you back from the brink, but they can also push you over the edge  ;)

Re. snorting stupid things.

Me and my mates used to snort vodka occasionally when we were in our teens. It is an incredibly stupid thing to do, but it does the job (ie. getting very drunk for very little money). I wouldn't recommend it unless you like getting your stomach pumped in A+E.

I work in a school, needless to say I'm in the same boat.

Got the girlfriend to pick up some of this on the way home.

I'm a TheraFlu junkie. Best stuff ever when you're not quite sick enough to call out of work, but sick enough not to be able to concentrate on the actual work you need to do.

And I accidentally found out that a TheraFlu closely followed by a pair of DayQuil liquigels will make you FLY for hours.  ;D Woo-wee!!!

How do you tell which end of the tablet is the cathode? I'm going to solder a pair of them into a klone and do a shootout for TGP. If they're magic, as you say, they should be less congested in the upper mids than 1n34as.

Hell yeah. If you want to watch a movie and *really* focus on it, take a healthy dose of dextromethorphan about 45 minutes before starting the film. I watched Donnie Darko that way and it was EPIC.

I like the caplet version with 12 day tablets and 12 night tablets. 
Mucinex is the bomb if the cold goes to your chest.

Snorting purple pixy sticks burns the nostrils.
