I will upvote this every time. “We would like to hear more about how you are using Allegra” is absolutely priceless.

[–] [email protected] 61 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Pharmaceutical companies are actually legally required to find out if you’re misusing their product or taking it in an undirected way, and report that to the FDA. Well, has been that way historically, anyhow. If you even work for a pharmaceutical company and you overhear at a weekend barbecue that someone has not taken a dose or doubled a dose etc, you’re obligated to report it within 24 hours.

Yep, I used to have a special card I had to keep in my wallet. It had a special number for them to call, and half of it had space for me to write down details (who/what/where) in the event I couldn’t get them to call

Is no one allowed to have fun anymore?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

We were never allowed to have fun; it's always been a guilty pleasure at others' expense.

We're just so interconnected now that we often hear whose expense it is, which may or may not offset your fun.

That's actually kind of wild

I haven't seen a recipe for Allegra Chicken on the box so I'm not sure that person contacted Allegra.

Reminds me of the one with the 7-11 gecko (or some animal) near a soda station. And 7-11 replies "can you tell us where this is so we can check on him and make sure he's safe?" And they're like no I ain't a snitch.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I recognize that Netscape logo cool guy.

How's your knees? Mine are fuuuuucked.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Ugh. I was literally just laying down in bed andy knee hurt. Literally zero pressure on it or anything. I'm only 33! It's not fair!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Idk why ppl do antihistamines as recreative drugs like fr

[–] [email protected] 46 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Because they're psychoactive in higher doses and readily available in lab quality. Not saying it's a good idea but that's really all it takes for something to be used as a drug.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

The lab quality bit is optional.

Why would you inflict on yourself dysphoric hallucinations on yourself if you live in a country where dextromethorphan is otc (which is not even my case, as well as antihistamines)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Broke/desperate/high schooler. Mom and dad probably won’t notice if the Benadryl goes missing. The Hat Man makes sure that you only make that mistake once.

Think about how many kids huffed banana peels because of some text file Anarchist Cookbook they found online. There are probably dumbasses that fell for jenkum.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I researched the banana peel thing in middle shcool and decided it was bullshit. Tried the oregano thing and thought I was high. Didn't try the nutmeg.

The crater makers made from empty CO2 cartridges were a lot of fun. I remember sealing them with wax and thinking about how dangerous it was having an open flame while holding something that could take off my forearm.

Never could get the iodine crystal explosive decomposition thing to work, too hard to get ahold of the precursors when I was a kid.

It's a wonder I survived, thank jeebus I couldn't get ahold of mercury.

Where the fuck were my parents?

Where the fuck were my parents?

If they were like mine, busy working. Also my parents both told us about how whenever a thermometer broke at school the teachers would show the kids how the liquid mercury felt to hold! They were both born in the early 50s.

I’m pretty sure it and leaded fuel and paint explains a lot of the boomer problems we’ve had over the decades.

How else are you supposed to meet the shadow man?

I think it's mostly a meme, but I'm sure some people might.

Thanks. Now that would be interesting, but I would not try it, thankyouverymuch.

It's allergy meds that people take to help them not sneeze.

But whenever I take it, it makes me drowsy.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So the question is: on what kind of drugs did OP overdose to invent that recipe?

Chicken seasoning

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Brand name for fexofenadine hayfever medication. If you don't live in the US you probably know it under a different brand name.

I miss that local sexpot

Amazing what food coloring and a joke can accomplish lol

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago

Given that the chicken is purple I'm going to say no.

[–] Console_Modder 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But does it taste better than sleepy-time chicken?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

Just raid the medicine cabinet for seasoning. Don't follow a recipe, go with vibes. Try that jar of cough syrup, a little rubbing alcohol and hand sanitizer should help with mouth feel, what was that pack of pills that you just knocked in? Oh well, just a happy little accident.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So this is what the kids are doing these days. What happened to good old cough syrup chicken.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Cuisines evolve over time. As they should. Have you seen ancient roman recipes? Shit's vile.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Tasting history w Miller on YouTube?
