I saw your post before you edited and now I know that you know what Viagra looks like, but I'll keep it to myself.

If it's not Vicodin, what else could it be? What other pharmaceuticals start with a "V"?

I would think that adding "at the very least" was the sure tip-off that I know about Viagra.

I don't think so. Why would I get exponentially more NRBs on a plane than at any other time?

I was hoping to get some information about the similarity/differences in the side effects and pain relieving capability. Who the hell would waste a perfectly good Vicodin on an angry screaming man? When the alternative is to feel better.

I've never had the Darvocet but I have had the Vicodin. I can stay awake on Vicodin. And I'm really really sensitive to stuff that makes me drowsy. I don't want to be taking something that's going to put me to sleep. Or do I?

Some kind of unexplored subconscious flying fetish? I don't know. I'm not in your head.

Too bad, isn't it? That time you and Thurgreed and I were in a guy's head was so much fun.

Reading David Foster Wallace, a supposedly fun thing I'll never do again.

Amusing, but perpetually absent a solid punchline. Intended more to make the reader feel impressed about getting subtle and snarky stuff than actually entertaining. See Chuck Klosterman's recent Esquire piece about Snakes on a Plane. It describes Foster Wallace's prime audience to a T.

To his credit, I've heard (I think from someone here who is an acquanitance of Wallace) that IRL, DFW is very aware he's exploiting a gullible audience with highbrow "product."

My feelings on DFW are strong because people keep giving me his books as presents, expecting me to really dig him. Klosterman does everything DFW does twice as well.

But I did like the fair piece...

As was pointed out to me the last time this came up, it really isn't my place to act as the hall monitor here. (Despite the fact that I would be a really good one.) Nonetheless, I am compelled one more time to say that this whole thing is just a bunch of bullshit.

I don't think that the public board is the place for this discussion, but since everyone involved seems to think that it is, it is clear that a bunch of people have been dicks to ppnyc ever since her return. They should stop. And she should stop responding to them. And to others who have already stopped. And from doing so using Not Public information.

If you don't like someone, put them on ignore.
And kill the board? She broguht it back from death rattles. I'd agree with you if she didn't ask for it.

But she did. And she asked TM no less. I mean, come on... A little assumption of the risk here?

I support hostility towards Asians. And pretty much everyone else.
