Well, if it's spicy enough, it can open up your sinuses.

I’d like a large one topping pizza - let’s go with Zyrtec.

Can I use my HSA card for that?

This probably has to do with supply chain issues. Stores wil place other products on shelves that they are not able to fill up. Why did they choose pepperoni? I don't know, but as a father the wife is always sending me for kids medicine so I appreciate the thought.

Can't be any worse than all the other bs flu "remedies". At least with pepperoni, you're getting protein and good pepperoni.

The severe pain/hot is about 20-30 minutes. First wave is a shock but 10-15 min later it's twice as bad lol never use water. It spreads worse.

Basically it drain all the stuffy-ness. Makes me feel much better for a few hours. Whenever I get colds and sick. Chew hot peppers and vitamin c drinks heavy first thing in morning and at night. Flushes all that crap out of your body. Oddly enough it seems to work for me. Zinc tabs too. I forget name but they lay under tongue and dissolve.

Wear gloves. Accidently touching penis or vagina will make you regret being alive. Just touching skin can cause severe burn pain on certain aress of the body. Even after washing hands. It's dangerous for a bit

I don't get diarrehea cause I don't eat them, I mostly chew or even just a lick does the work. Rub a finger across it's broken skin and then touch your lip for one moment, that will be enough to hurt.

​

Also, amusing trick at the bar. Rub one against a straw or rim of a friends drink. It's amusing.

Usually bring them to bar because there is always a tough guy with a few drinks in their belly who thinks they aren't shit and eats it whole, the spends next hour or two dying and crying and puking and going around looking like they're balling their eyes out

I remember one time I was administering steroids IV too fast & the patient jumped up and grabbed her pubic area and screamed that her “crotch was on fucking fire!!!”. Will never forget that and will never not do it verrrrrrry slow again.

You Americans always surprise me, I was expecting sacs of dried peperonici, which kind of makes sense in a funny way with the topic, but then I zoomed in and saw the salami. I know you call it that, but what is the reason for it? Honest question.

Pepperoni is not an alternate name for salami, it's arguably either a specific kind of salami or an entirely distinct food, invented in America by Italian immigrants. Salami is made from cured pork, pepperoni can be either all pork or a blend of pork and beef. It's made with a different blend of spices from salami, most prominently the paprika that gives it a bright red color (and its name, that's the connection to the peperonici you were expecting). It's an extremely popular pizza topping and also used as a sandwich filling, usually in combination with other varieties of salami.

There's a weird drug store chain in Ohio called Drug Mart, and they only seem to exist up around Lake Erie, and I always loved going there whenever we'd travel to see my grandma growing up because they had the most random stuff imaginable all over the store. Nothing was really successfully sorted by aisle, and there was always something crazy that didn't belong with the rest of the aisle.

I went back a few years ago before heading back to grad school and it was still the craziest stuff you've ever seen. They still had freaking VHS tapes you could rent, AND they had a display of hair dryers set up in the produce section next to all the heads of fresh lettuce.

Nah, pseudoephedrine, the good stuff and clears your sinus like magic, is behind the counter. Non-prescription but regulated. The sinus meds on the shelf are phenylephrine wannabe crap.

I've never once eaten a pizza that didn't involve pepperoni and I eat frankly far too many peperamis, I've also never had the flu. CHECKMATE VACCINES (that I've also had)!

It is, but there are two versions of Sudafed. Pseudoephedrine became regulated after the increase in it's usage for meth production. You can freely purchase it (as "Sudafed" and generic) but it is sold directly from behind the pharmacy counter and they scan your driver's license barcode to track how many milligrams you're purchasing regardless of where you buy it.

The variant on the shelf is labeled as "Sudafed PE" for the PhenylEphrine formulation (kinda dumb since the other drug can also be abbreviated PE, maybe that was on purpose). I'm assuming they brought this to market because they didn't want to lose brand presence by not having a product on the shelf most (uninformed) consumers would be looking at.
