I remember Flaming Dr Peppers. I don't think they contain any Dr Pepper, though.
The Core Power shout pleases me, more so knowing it is effective! (if requiring two applications)
Yeah... That went well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

No, I bet they didn't, but maybe they are warm!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
lacked necessary hand strength to open bottle
Those rubber bracelets that were everywhere for a while ("Live Strong" and such) are excellent for an assist on opening any kind of bottle or jar.

I have no idea what was in it, but there was definitely a drink called a Flaming Dr Pepper when I was in college...
I believe those were called Dr. Peppers from Hell in my region. A shot glass of half amaretto and half Bacardi 151, set on fire and dunked into a 3/4 full pint glass of beer.

When I was in college, people would brew some Constant Comment tea and lace it with Southern Comfort ... producing a Constant Comfort.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Random note: I gotta say I remain a big fan of western medicine. I know the healthcare system in the US is horrendously effed up, but the actual medicine? When I think of how doomed I'd have been just 30 or 20 years ago, and how much physical pain I'd have to grit my teeth through while sliding to doom, while instead I'm sitting up drinking a Hec-crafted latte, bopping between social media and the current book (The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett) and feeling pretty fine now that the constipation is gone I'm just boggled.

That actually sounds kinda good.

Well, yeah, but that's the capitalism, not the science. I'm glad the medicine is making things better for you than they would have been, JZ.

Constant Comfort is a great name. The drink sounds pretty comforting and tasty as well.
Glad for the feeling pretty fine part, for sure, JZ! I drink my instant coffee in solidarity (I would be drinking it anyway, but I was thinking of you enjoying a latte while I was makin it)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Constant Comment is my recent go to when I want caffeinated tea. I may have to try this.
