Yabba dabba d'oh!

What a delicious way to go.

10 million strong... and dying

Someday
Maybe Fred will win the fight
Gently
Slipping into cold dark night

Diogenes: Yabba dabba d'oh!

Full of win!

Clearly a pebble-head.

You can only die if you eat the Betty ones. Wait, did they ever make Betty? I'd eat her... d'oh!

Should have used Tylenol, from what I've heard.

/prefer NyQuil and a running engine in an enclosed space

GoodyearPimp: Flintstones vitamins used to contain high levels of iron, which can cause issues if you ate a bunch of them.

Black poopies.

Well... I'd overdose on Betty. But I'd be thinking of Wilma.

Tylenol might work but it wouldn't be pleasant. Or quick.

The "car in a closed garage" trick doesn't work as well as it used to, in this era of catalytic converters and electronic emission control systems. A lawnmower, leafblower, or something might work but your neighbors would start wondering what the hell the noise was.

Garages don't work too well in general either. They're usually designed to allow air flow. (note I didn't say "car" or "garage")

But any small engine, especially if it's either a) old or b) a two-stroke and a locked interior room (especially in a "high-efficiency" home) will do the trick nicely. The NyQuil is just to help you avoid the nausea caused from the exhaust, as well as lull you through the unpleasant effects of asphyxiation.

As far as neighbors go, most people aren't going to call anybody until it becomes annoying/suspicious, which will generally be far too late.

/what's a "catalytic converter"
//oh, you must mean those things you're supposed to remove from new cars... ;)

It will still kill you, and that makes it "work" exactly as well as it used to.

The problem is that modern cars emit very little carbon monoxide because they convert it to harmless carbon dioxide.

Melatonin? Flinstone Vitamins?

The Amazing Randi does a debunking speech on homeopathic medicine during which he takes an "overdose" of homeopathic sleeping pills. This might work--some day.

But I think he misunderestimates homeopathic medicine. I hear that the smaller that actual amount of "active ingredient", the stronger the homeopathic remedy (which makes for very low production costs, I imagine).

It seems to me that the only way to overdose on homeopathic medicine is to not take any.

I often wonder, if diluting and and shaking the "active" ingredients in homeopathic remedies make the remedies more effective, why you shouldn't be able to cure absolutely everything with a sip of sea water.

All of the allopathic medicines that can be excreted end up in the water supply (where they are diluted, for the most part, to harmless levels) and so do the homeopathic medicines. Only dillution and shaking is supposed to make the latter stronger. Therefore, ordinary tap water ought to contain fatal doses of everything the homeopaths make.

It is true that you are more likely to die drinking tap water than homeopathic remedies, seeing as there is a lot more arsenic, cadmium, e. coli, etc., in the ordinary glass of tap water and thus some risk of death, but really, I just don't understand how you tell the difference between a homeopathic medicine and nothing at all, which is to say, the placebo effect and the nocebo effect.

two things wrong with this:
cars emit carbon monoxide.
carbon dioxide is just as deadly.

Pffft, amateur

This is one of the two things I came here for.

/the other was the Bloom County strip where Bobbi Harlow's mother mistook Flintstone vitamins for birth control pills
