  • I do. I extend it beyond medicines as well. Corporations have spent lots of money for their brands to be household names. They don’t control my language.

    Specifically to medicine, I will note that the generic name actually carries information that the brand name does nothing for. Lisinopril and enalopril are the same medication class, act similar. Amlodipine, nimodipine, nicardipene are all the same class. Those generic names have important meaning.

    Oh, you want facial tissues? Why didn’t you ask?

    Sure, here’s some acetaminophen and ibuprofen.

    Don’t you mean bleach wipes?



  • The foreskin is the loose part of the skin covering the tip of the penis. It is the part that is cut during circumcision. However, the loose bit of skin actually attaches a bit behind the tip, not at the base of the penis. Think of a circumcised penis. That ring of skin just shy of the tip is where the foreskin used to attach.

    Attempting to retract the foreskin to the base of the penis is painful, not entirely possible, and with enough force with tear.

    This is a joke implying that someone tried to retract it to the base.
