Did you say “Klaatu Barada Convfefe” as you took it?

You didn’t?

Oh no. :eek:

Natrol Liquid Melatonin. It does not say sublingual.

I think I fucked up. It’s the only kind they had, though.

Damn it, you’re all putting _me_ to sleep. I like and respect all of you, but if I have to put you all on my ignore list, I will.

With all due respect, please kindly fuck off to the mini rants thread or some other thread. TYVM.

No, you’re not allowed to say, **Fuck off and die.**  **Miller** won’t even give a mod note for a simple “Fuck off.”

Not to be rude, but there are a bunch of people in this thread, and you seem to be the only one complaining about drug tangents. Sure, everyone could bend to your wishes. Or maybe you could just skip over the posts that you find boring.

How would it work trying to hold liquid under your tongue? Doesn’t seem too manageable. Any sublingual medication I’ve ever seen has been in pill form of some sort.

I searched on Amazon and there are plenty of sublingual liquid melatonin brands. I think it’s just a few drops at a time.

Bullshit. They’re easier to skip over if they’re on my ignore list. You’re first. I know you probably don’t give a shit, but it’ll make me happier.

And willfully hijacking a thread is an asshole move and marks you as a troll in my book. I guess that makes it appropriate after all.

As I recall, the trigger phrase is GFY. Or any bigothets directed at other posters. That get reportings, because mods have enough work just keeping up with the threads they want to be in.

I think that’s the dumbest goddamn rule. There is nothing that compares to a hearty ‘‘go fuck yourself.’’

So the guy complaining about people hijacking the thread with a discussion of Melatonin hijacks the thread with a discussion of the rules.

Yeah, that certainly seems likely. The OP has just got to be a troll. And won’t a suicide forum try to talk you out of it rather than tell you how to off yourself painlessly?

Damn it, now I have the _M_A_S_H\* theme stuck in my head.
