I don't mind wintergreen but if I'm sick to my stomach only peppermint helps (if I have no ginger) I wonder if all that Pepto we had when we were sick little kiddies made it so it doesn't work on us as adults.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I DEPISE spearmint. To the point that if someone is chewing spearmint gum or sucking on a mint, I can't talk to them.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The other day as I was walking into the grocery store here in Orange County CA I was kind of pleased to see two teenaged boys with a bouquet of flowers walking out holding hands. It was just a "Yay for gay PDAs" moment for me but I didn't think to share with anyone.
Then today I heard about the SPLC for about the millionth time and finally went to their website to find out what they're all about and clicked through to the Hate Map and saw just how full of bigotry and hate the OC really is. So whether they know it or not those boys are really brave and I think it's worth mentioning.

Vyvanse is the longest-acting of the stimulants; it's possible a shorter-acting one wouldn't be as bad. Tim can't take the long-acting ones (they make him feel shitty as hell) and just takes Ritalin every 4 hours.
The physical feeling wasn't so much the issue as the mental feeling. Detached, locked in my brain, apathetic, yet still anxious.
Those are what I think might come back regardless of the duration.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I once saw a photo of Alan Rickman, barefoot, in a kilt. sigh
When you say that, I gotta check my archives...
This?

Y'all can have all the peppermint and I'll take the wintergreen (and "wint-o-green") and spearmint. Yum! Te only successful thing growing in my garden right now is the three kinds of mint, but I forget what they are!

Is that a flailing sound I hear from the direction of Seattle?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The exhibition originated in NY and has been a couple other places before coming here. But I think this is the closest to Seattle so far.
