That Special Kind of Stupid
Apparently some bottles of Children’s Motrin might have eight-hour extended release Tylenol in it.
The text on the CNN website reads:
The children’s product is a purple tablet with a grape smell. The adult product is a shiny red-and-white, gelatin-coated tablet. Parents who believe their children may have taken the adult product by mistake should contact their health care provider or a poison control center immediately.
Through the magic of the web, I will remove the Political Correctness Blinders and allow you to view the text through Common Sense Glasses. Here is what that text would look like:
The children’s product is a purple tablet with a grape smell. The adult product is a shiny red-and-white, gelatin-coated tablet. If you let your child take medicine without your supervision you should take your child(ren) to child services and leave them there. Please go and buy a goldfish instead. If you gave your child the pill yourself, you are probably also one of that special kind of stupid that mistakes soap with a knife and mac and cheese with a loaded M-16A rifle. In that case, take your child(ren) to child services and move to a cave in Montana.
