Halfbakery Medications

 Don't worry, be happy

I see the need for a range of medications, exclusive to halfbakers, to be made available through the 1/2B shopping service soon to be set up as an adjunct to this site.

Green ones = Ignore Trolls
Red ones = Make you much funnier
Orange Ones = Make you less funny (for Rods Tiger)
Pink ones = Allows men to think like women for 10 mins
Blue Ones = Allows women to think like men for 10 mins
Silver ones = Give you a brief glimpse of the reality of Earth's physics for 10 mins
Yellow Ones = Make you *think* you're much funnier than you really are.
Black Ones = Taste like aniseed

Whilst not obligatory these could make the 'bakery a far more pleasant place to work (since we do so much of it here whilst being paid to do something else for someone else). They have the added benefit of making trolls and wankers virtually invisible to the regulars.

The aforementioned Haldol http://www.psyweb.c...Drughtm/halope.html

       Just a thought: Wouldn't "Halfbakery : Merchandise" be a better category?   

       A lifetime supply of the red please UB. Then maybe I can see about getting that writer's job on Futurama...
—CoolerKing, Feb 07 2002
   

       What can I take to think like [blissmiss] for 10 minutes?
—phoenix, Feb 07 2002
   

       I need all of them, except for the pink, and a special one to think like jutta briefly before posting.
—bristolz, Feb 07 2002
   

       [phoenix], I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Hint: It involves hormone treatments.
—UnaBubba, Feb 07 2002
   

       Don't forget the yellow ones... they make you think you're much funnier than you really are.

—UnaBubba, Feb 08 2002
   

       can I drink and drive while taking these pills? what are these little lilac ones for? oh dear, that was a shock!
—po, Feb 08 2002
   

       I think I've been overdosing on the yellow ones recently.
—cp, Feb 08 2002
   

       green and yellow stripey ones - make you realise you're not funny at all (i.e. bring you back down to *earth* !?)
—sappho, Feb 08 2002
   

       [cp], that was a yellow/silver.
—UnaBubba, Feb 08 2002
   

       Cyan ones = Creates an urge in the ingestor to read and fully digest the help page. One free with every new account created.
—CoolerKing, Feb 08 2002
   

       Could we colour it in batches and market it as Halfdol?   

       [bliss], what is its action? Dopamine antagonist?
—UnaBubba, Feb 08 2002
   

       Good for what ails ya, that Haldol. Nifty little pill that is... an anti-psychotic, which is always good fun, though I prefer Zyprexa.   

       Great side effects too, like "tardive dyskinesia" which is one of the best condition names ever, and is great fun at parties too.   

       (My previous comments about Tourette's Syndrome notwithstanding.)
—waugsqueke, Feb 08 2002
   

       Tardive dyskinesia is much like Gilles de la Tourette's syndrome in its involuntary movements, isn't it?   

       Though I note Haldol is used to treat Tourette's, in some cases...
—UnaBubba, Feb 08 2002
   

       Tardive dyskinesia is involuntary movement of the lips and tongue. It's often present in Tourette's but not always.   

       Might make for adventurous oral sex, though.
—waugsqueke, Feb 08 2002
   

       No "might" about it. A whole new type of Russian Roulette.
—phoenix, Feb 08 2002
   

       Are they available in liquid form, some pills are very hard to swallow!
—arora, Feb 08 2002
   

       'One pill makes you smaller, and one pill makes you tall, and the ones that mother gives you, don't do anything at all...'   

       How about a black and white striped one that gives trolls headaches?   

       [Arora, look at the picture linked from my user profile for why 'black and white striped'.]
—StarChaser, Feb 09 2002
   

       If we all lived in rabbit holes and took LSD that would suit us fine.
—arora, Feb 09 2002
   

       I'd like to purchase six silver ones, ten green ones, and twenty red ones. No, *fifty* red ones--I have three brothers...
—Galileo, Feb 09 2002
   

       Of course, then you'd get all the New Agers with their homeopathic halfbakery medications. Wolfsbane and belladonna for trolls. Cannabis sativa for finding everything much funnier...
—pottedstu, Feb 10 2002
   

       I sus pect we already have a fair complement of those.
—UnaBubba, Feb 10 2002
   

       <<<<rumaging through my boxes for some arnica montana....because I expect some "newbie" bruising to take place>>>>>   

       CoolerKing....I took my cyan pill
—runforrestrun, Feb 10 2002
   

       So which bounder is going to own up to slipping the yellow ones in my tea since arrival? waugs.. own up now sonny jim!
—The_Englishman_Abroad, Feb 11 2002
   

       Sorry [T_E_A], I took a yellow one myself and thought it'd be a funny thing to do.   

       Congratulations [runforrestrun], may your stay at 1/2B be a pleasant one. We don't bash *all* newbies, just those that troll.
