I hate it when my tylenol's been notwithstood.
Okay, this is interesting.
Will she get all freaked out by feeling the victims' vulnerability and decide she needs to take krav maga? I'm just saying.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Did you know the Tylenol scare that prompted all the safety caps and packaging, etc was later proven to have been comitted by a family member, not a matter of anyone tampering on the shelves randomly?
Seriously? I thoguht they never solved that one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You know, if someone could get their poison into Krispy Kreme, they'd be golden.
You'd be snarfing, your co-worker would fall over dead, you'd pause to think "Poor fuck," and grab the remnant of his Boston Creme before he hit the ground.

Seven people died of cyanide poisoning between 29 September and 1 October 1982, all after having taken Tylenol. Although the case is officially listed as "unsolved," it appears this was a bona fide random poisoning and not an attempt to cover up the murder of one individual by randomly killing six others.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Except that more than one person died in the original incident. Snopes says that it was the later copycat attacks that were directed. [link]
Hee. X-post.

OOooh! I just totally got a plot point for my not-nanowrimo-no. Wonder what happens to a woman between her first kill and the second. What makes her turn serial and not just, you know, your everyday household murderer.

If I only had a brain...
You have friends, right? Co-workers? You have to think outside the box, or you just get lost in the annals of history.
Yeah, but if the entire Java department at t very large corporation drops dead unexpectedly, it does tend to draw attention. Especially police attention.

I'm thinking if my entire extended family dropped dead, attention would be drawn too.

Maybe their Krispy Kreme poison can be slow working. And randomized! Maybe it can be nanobot Krispy Kreme infection that can be triggered by radio control!
