  Lmao, fair enough!

  Why the fuck you roasting a turkey upside down? You want nice crispy golden skin on the back and gooey white skin on the actual edible parts?

  I mean we use US customary and metric too, but US customary measurements aren’t always the same as Imperial.

  1 US pint = 16 US fluid ounces 1 British pint = 20 British fluid ounces But wait! 1 British pint = 19.2 US fluid ounces

  Would you like to know more? Probably not, but anyways: …wikipedia.org/…/Comparison_of_the_imperial_and_U…

  This is the way. The butts sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

  Businesses don’t have the power to do that if we collectively tell them no. But that being said, how DO you split up a 10-day week keeping the same basic ratio of “weekend” days?

  Three weekdays, followed by a single “weekend” day or mid-week break, then four weekdays followed by a two-day weekend?

  It’s a hell of a lot easier to disable than it is to enable, especially if you’re not disabled. It’s a minor inconvenience once for us, but enabling it could be exceedingly difficult to overcome for someone else.

  To be clear, the text in the bottom half of this meme is 100% accurate, though rarely, if ever, spoken out loud. When you approached The Hole, you’d briefly exchange glances with the other diggers, they’d nod, silently acknowledging a new ally and, without a word, affirming “you know what to do.”

  Not sure why you were downvoted, this a quality comment with academic sources.

  Your distinction is correct, but I simply listed NSAIDs as an example, not an exhaustive list of pain relievers. You also make assumptions on “the normal headache pill” based on your locale. In the US paracetamol/acetaminophen/Tylenol is very common, but so is ibuprofen/Advil, naproxen sodium/Aleve, and aspirin/Bayer. In fact, I’d argue ibuprofen is far more popular here based on how much larger the ibuprofen section is compared to acetaminophen in pharmacies. Granted acetaminophen is a bit more common in compound OTC meds like cold and flu medicines.

  That being said, paracetamol functions extremely similarly to NSAIDs, but it’s not anti-inflammatory, and works on the nervous system only, whereas NSAIDs affect the brain and body as well.

  There’s a VERY big difference between “pain relievers”, NSAIDs, and “pain killers” which are opioids. NSAIDs are effective and safe if used properly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Seek relief⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And acetaminophen is brutal on your liver if you take it often.

  Eventually, but it starts with Googling and trying a bunch of other example code and failing miserably.

  Gonna blame its marketing, because this is totally up my alley but it’s one of maybe three films in this list I’ve never heard of.

  It’s throwing a little bit of shade.

  An outspoken pro-LGBT and womens’ rights musician, and a pro-vax athlete. They’re using their fame for good.

  Pick better targets, these are friendlies.

  Yup, this is why you should always sign up using a credit card, never your debit card or bank. You can issue a chargeback online pretty easily with most credit card companies these days, it won’t affect your credit, and the money never leaves your bank account.

  Where did you read this nonsense? The COVID vaccines are FAR more effective at preventing illness and death than the flu shot. The things we learned about mRNA vaccines made for COVID will be used to improve the flu shot and other vaccines in the future. There is quite literally no reasonable argument against the vaccines. They’re extremely safe and extremely effective.
