I definitely had to tell an employee that her denim trousers were not OK in a no-jeans office. Now I wonder if they might have been chambray, but I'm pretty sure they were denim.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

If you have to fondle the fabric to determine if the pants qualify, they may be too close.

I know that now. Although I am pretty sure that the rule was just "no denim" not no jeans! And they weren't denim! But that is really pedantic.

A vague dress code is no one's friend.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
How much Advil can I take in one day?

I'm so sorry, Zen. That sounds awful. I don't know about Advil dosages, though.

I was prescribed double the dose on the bottle for years. That sounds dreadful, Zen. I'm annoyed by the fact that I can hear my pulse in my ears when my blood count is low, but that's just a minor tell-tale heart sort of annoyance.
My last employer used "professional appearance" to ding the performance ratings of people who were doing a great job but who didn't fit into their narrow Navy code.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I've taken as much as 3 at a time, 8 hours apart, when I was dealing with post surgical pain.

I think double what's on the bottle is standard for OK. But that's not true for Tylenol!

I wouldn't go over the bottle rec on naproxen either, but that may just be the way my body metabolizes meds.
