Young Matt Scott (and I say young because he is about a decade younger than me *sob*) is here with us today trying to figure out what the heck is in his medicine chest.
Matt: I actually don’t have medicine in my medicine chest. The only medicine I have in my apartment is a bottle of aspirin or whatever in the kitchen.
Me: You’re not even sure if your painkiller is aspirin or something else?!
Matt: ..no..I mean..I can check when I get off work today. Might be like Advil. Which is ibuprofen or however you spell it. right?
Me: Yes. Advil is ibuprofen. Tylenol is acetaminophen. Aleve is naproxen.
Matt: I found out! I have straight up ibuprofen in the kitchen cabinet and I even found a thingy of neosporin in the medicine chest! So I guess all is not lost.
Me: OK, Matt. You’re up Feb 27th March 1st but with that scanty bit of info, I’m gonna have to make stuff up.
Matt: well..okay..but only if I’m a robot or I get to drive one around Mechwarrior style.
Even robots need maintenance supplies, Matt! Please, I beg you. At least get yourself some bandaids to go with that Neosporin.
