She said: Take them with a lot of food. They're hard on your stomach. I thought: Heard that one before, then I expect the worse and it's nothing. Now I think: Oh shit, she was not kidding. It's literally painful. There's something clawing it's way out of my stomach and it wants out either by making me puke or by pulling itself out through my belly button.
She said: They may make all food taste bad, but it's nothing to worry about. I thought: Nothing to worry about? Seriously. This sounds disgusting. Now I think: All food was an understatement. Everything tastes bad. Food, water, toothpaste, my own saliva...
She said: Be aware that they will make you dizzy. So no operating heavy machinery. I thought: Heavy machinery? I think I'll be okay. I'll be able to use the radial arm saw and climb the scaffolding without a problem. Now I think: Will I even be able to walk to work tomorrow? Certainly i won't be biking.

Fuck you for never admitting when things go wrong. Fuck you for fucking yourself up.Labels: bad news bears, conversations, dick head, quotes |
