Would you?

Let's say you bought some Tylenol.....and when you got home you had some stuff in your car you wanted to throw away.....so you chucked your garbage into the dumpster before you walked upstairs to your place....

Then once you got changed and were ready to start settling in for the night, you realized your Tylenol got chucked as well. It was an accident. It's probably still laying on top of the other garbage in the dumpster.

Would you?

I mean...the tablets are inside a bottle, the bottle is inside a box, and the box is inside a bag.

On the other hand, it's like a public dumpster, full of the accumulated filth of everyone in your condo complex.

And it's not even real Tylenol. It's the Walgreens brand.

Would you?

I did.

I would, but I'm sick enough to lick the outside of the bag after retrieving it....

In the bottle, in the box, in the bag?

I would. I'd just open the box, dump the bottle out, wash my hands, and go from there.

Eeewwww........

I hope you killed the germs, inside and out, with a full bottle of Scotch.

With all that scotch you drink, Tylenol might not be the best thing for you anyway.

Mother Jones wins the comment contest. The one going on in my head, that is.

After dropping my fork or knife on the floor, I ALWAYS pick it up and continue to use it. Been doing it for decades. I'm still here. So, you know what I'd do about the Tylenol.

With your love of distilled grain alcohol, I'm surprised a germ would have a fighting chance in your gut.

As long as the Tylenol box wasn't on top of a decomposing body, I would have retrieved it.

Plain acetaminophen? Fuck it.

Tylenol with codeine? Sure. Not like I can just go back and get it refilled, can I?

Plain codeine? Without a second thought.
