My favorite part about putting him on ignore is that whenever someone quotes him, it’s just a quote box, his name and then… nothing. Unlike vBulletin, Discourse gets it. ---

At this point I don’t think a person could literally be as stupid as Hoogles is pretending to be and still be able to operate a device you can use to post to the message board. I think this is an act to get a rise out of people and it’s working. I’m on board with the “troll” theory. Especially since he’s now reveling in people being upset with him. I think he’s now tipping his hand too much. ---

If I found a Mr. Hoogly on my bathroom floor, I would first scold the dog, and then get some powerful disinfectant to clean it up. ---

> [@Mr\_Hoogly](#): > > The vaccine is not 100% safe. Fact How many people died from Acetominophen in the USA last year? Answer, around 450. How many got liver damage, bleeding in the intestines and stomach, angioedema, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and kidney damage from Acetominophen? Gosh, I guess your Tylenol is not 100% safe. ---

Not a joke but a close family member overdosed on acetaminophen. She was okay but had to be hospitalized. There was no lasting damage but she was lucky. No medicine is 100% safe. That doesn’t mean you should never take it. Risk management should be a required subject in all public schools. ---

Honestly, given it’s, non-medical necessity, frequency of use, and ease with which serious overdose can occur ([8 maximum strength tablets in one day or as few as four with alchohol)](https://www.ucihealth.org/blog/2018/03/acetaminophen-liver-failure), I think Acetaminophen probably shouldn’t be allowed over the counter. Of course that doesn’t stop me carefully taking Excedrine for my headaches. ---

Tylenol and similar combinations of acetaminophen has indeed been banned in the UK and other are sold in small-quantity blister packs specifically because it was a major cause of liver failure. Because _actual_ risk management. ---
