Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Not ibuprofen and aspirin. I have taken ibu and tylenol and aspirin and tylenol before. not sure about naproxen.
The funny thing is that I seriously had no idea who Bob Saget was, not even an inkling, and I actually came across something where he mentioned her by name.
Horrible interview with Zack Galiflanakis. [link] The guy is local, and has a column in the arts and entertainment weekly the DMN puts out to compete with The Observer. Occasionally he's funny, usually it's all about what a miserable drunk he is and how he's lucky to make it through life.
Matt, that's an excellent description of how oxycodone and all related drugs make me feel, too. It's unpleasant enough to me that often the pain relief isn't worth it.
Dude, I love that head-floaty feeling! t /notajunkie notajunkie notajunkie

Naproxen is an antiinflammatory like ibuprofen (and -- sort of -- aspirin). I wouldn't take it WITH ibuprofen or aspirin, but I have taken it 3-4 hours after ibuprofen when the pain wasn't going away.
And you can take naproxen with tylenol.
I mean, technically, I need to say you shouldn't take any of them together. But unless you do it around the clock for more than a day or two, it's generally not going to be a problem. (I say "generally" because obviously people might have drug sensitivities they don't know about, or they might be slow/fast metabolizers of a specific drug, etc.)
And for the love of god people, and I mean this VERY STRONGLY, if you take any drug, and especially anything on a regular basis, DO NOT DRINK GRAPEFRUIT JUICE. I don't mean "don't drink it WITH the drug"; I mean don't drink it AT ALL.
The short version of why is that it basically blocks the metabolic pathway for a lot of the most common drugs, which means the drug isn't getting metabolized out, so it's building up in your system and you are inadvertently overdosing yourself, which can FUCK YOU UP.
So ditch the Sea Breezes if you take medication. Thank you in advance.

Even ibuprofen? That's nuts!! If so, I will have to strongly consider which part of my normal breakfast I'll have to ditch.

I'll be over here not being a junkie with Tep.

Honestly? I wouldn't. I can look stuff up later to see what enzymes metabolize ibuprofen -- they might not be the ones that grapefruit juice loves to hate -- but having seen some really bad shit happen because of that interaction (as well as reading case reports of bad shit at work), I just tell people to avoid it.
Well, it's not like the ibuprofen is really taking away my knee pain anyway. I LOVE a glass of pink grapefruit juice in the morning.

Back in the late '80s/early '90s, my grandma got sucked in by a TV ad for some supposedly super-excellent vitamins that will cure all your sickness. She took them just like she was supposed to, and there were a lot of them, until she had what appeared to be a stroke. It took the doctors two days to figure out that what she actually had was a case of vitamin overdose--turns out that the vitamins she was taking were building themselves up in her organs until her body couldn't handle anymore.
I've never told my husband I am jealous when he gets to take a justified Vicodin. EVER.
