I just regurgitated a large pill, twice. I tried to force it down
with
other heavy food, but it still hasn't gone down.
A friend suggested drinking water, and as I began to make fun
of
the incoherent feeble blob that is water, an image of protestors
being swept off their feet with high-pressure
water cannons
came
to mind.
In most developed countries, you wash your ass with a bidet or
a
handshower next to the bowl. Although I resisted using my
handshower today, the design would have to be no different,
really. One only has to aim it at the right orifice.
(Consumers, of course, would need it to have classic oral-
hygiene-like packaging instead of classic rectal-hygiene-like
packaging.)
PS. marketing could involve leveraging halitophobia, as
Listerine
did in the '20s.

This would be a boon for the waterboarding industry |

Can you just to a headstand in the sink, or for
more dramatic impact, in the toilet bowl? |

Crush pill.
Place shrapnel in mouth.
Swallow with water.
Chase with liquor.
Repeat. |
|
| |
if (pill > 0) then put (mouth, pill); |

Bless you. My programming experience stopped at Basic
at 300 baud in 1980. It would appear we have progressed
a bit (hee hee). |

Is there a way we can do something like that, by
injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you
see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous
number on the lungs, so it'd be interesting to check
that, so that you're going to have to use medical
doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. |

It was a capsule, and it is unsafe to open/crush it. |
|
| |
If it was something like an Apollo or a Soyuz, it's not surprising you had difficultly swallowing it. They're qute big. |
|

And lt looks like [sninc] is currently channeling President Trump... |

You can buy empty 2-piece gelatine or vegetable-based capsule shells in whatever size you find convenient. Open your monstrous tennis-ball sized capsule, extract the //dangerous// contents while wearing goggles and breathing apparatus, and distribute between as many small-size empty capsules as you need. Now swallow the 100 or more small capsules. Maybe don't take alcohol after each one or you may die of alcohol poisoning. Beneficial side-effect is you will ingest a fair amount of gelatine which is good for your joints and general nutrition. This is not medical advice, or legal advice, in fact it's barely advice, more the rambling thoughts of someone who has not had enough coffee yet this morning. |

Hmmm. Some capsules may have "enteric" coatings, though, so using regular gelatine capsules may not be appropriate. |
|
| |
The potential for actual harm is very small; the most likely outcome is that stomach acid will destroy or inactivate the active in the medication. Medications that do have such levels of risk are rarely given outside hospital settings, or under direct medical supervision of some sort. |

Syntax error in line 8: put is a reserved keyword. |
|
| |
There's nothing to stop you compiling and linking your own version of a built-in function like put() if you want to do it. That's one if the beauties of C. |
|
| |
However, in terms of best practice in programming, it would be better to define a specific unique function and call it by a non-reserved name such as emplace(). |
