Quite why they want to remove it from use I do not know. It seems to be doing a great job of de-silting the gene pool.

Gives a whole new meaning to substance abusers claiming to have gone "clean".

So rather than make the hand gel secure they want to remove it entirely? Typically treating symptoms rather than cause.

whatever next!

[porcupineprince]

Honestly, what next!

[Sheriff JWPepper]

This stuff is crucial in the fight against hospital infections. If people are that fecking desperate for a drink let them.

they'll probably get sued by someone who nicks it, drinks it and becomes ill if they don't

[Hedders]

Is that how Gello shots were invented?

[otolith]

Nonsense! This is a far superior drink to meths. The waers don't drink it because they can't afford it.

Yes, I am bored, all this 'choice' really does make me feel a little superfluous to requirements
