@achewood I am composing a tone poem about eagles, lawnmowers, and Ted Nugent. It is composed only of the sounds of those things.

like that new drug that grows your eyelashes..... you have to get a prescription, but is insufficient eyelash length a huge deal?
IIRC, a possible side effect of that drug is that it stains your eyes.

I love the mealy-mouthedness inherent in these two statements.  Don't the two phrases "may be reversible" and "may be permanent" mean exactly the same thing?  Like, if it's not reversible, then it's permanent -- right?  And if it's not permanent, then it's reversible -- right?  And if you say "may be", that means it might happen and it might not -- right?  So... both side-effects may or may not be permanent -- right?

Well "may be reversible" to me says "no matter what this shit ain't going away on its own but there may be a way to reverse it with other drugs or something." As for "may be permanent" that could go either way.

I think those are the doc's caveats, not the Pharm company's. He has more incentive to hedge his bets a bit.

I am saddened by my lack of photoshop/GIMP skills which prevent me from putting an image of a lacrosse stick reskinned with a prosciutto image on the forum.  Its pretty rad in my imagination anyway.

I thought it was cut from a pork belly though.  So less ham-ish.

Apparently no one on this board has ever eaten prosciutto.
