They can't say, "This won't kill you," because one in a million times it might, and they can't say "This might kill you," because it's vanishingly unlikely it will, so we get 'rarely fatal' and 'increased likeliness of negative side effects' instead of "yes, this kills people, but it's really unlikely it'll kill YOU," and "No, seriously, we mean it with the 'no drinking' bit, OK?"

I always get too many pain pills. When I had abdominal surgery seven years ago, I somehow ended up with 75 hydrocodone. I took 3 and then the pain was mostly just minor-twinge ignorable and much less annoying than the fuzzyheaded feeling from the pills. And they wonder why people get habituated to that stuff!

Sounds like you are having fun in your world.

Much love,
Rowan
