I just chewed a decongestant

[Gib Lover]

Everyone in my office is sick and someone went out and bought a bunch of decongestants and gave 2 pills to each person.

I asked if they were chewables or if we swallow them, said to chew them jokingly. I didn't think he was joking.

My mouth now tastes awful and I want to throw up, and everyone in my office is laughing at me.

Have any of you ever done something stupid?

Why wouldn't you tell us the name of this decongestant?

It was Mucinex, the one with the stupid Antonio Banderas bee

The real question is how do I get this terrible taste out of my mouth. Now I sent this to a coworker, my life is falling apart

Now everyone in the office thinks im a dude-blowing decongestant-chewing mongoloid.

Marmite.

I was trying to make a ninja mask with a large black piece of cloth. When I attempted to cut the eyehole out, the knife slipped, went through the cloth, and directly into my pinky finger, slicing deep and severing a tendon or two.

I was 25.

Never had it, but I think a white Monster has done the trick, my mouth tastes much better now

Why didn't you just use pepper? If your nose is ... I forgat english word, you know, you can't breathe properly, put some pepper on your tongue and chew it. You won't sense most of the taste due to cold but you'll be able to breathe on your nose after a few minutes. But don't use that shitty pepper from small packages they give you for food, that pepper is shit and doesn't work. Regular pepper should work.

Also, for your current problem, bubble gum. Take one and chew, it will neutralize the taste of the pill. Or eat some bread.

As for the thread question, I did lots of stupid things in my life, but then, how can we learn? Like being focused on something and someone asks me a question and I say yes then I don't know to what I said yes or trying to get rid of some important papers by burning them but it didn't work so I shredded them and thew them in the toilet at home. It got stuck obviously.

I chewed an Advil once. Far as I know, that typically won't hurt you, but the non-chewable stuff will usually leave a bad taste in your mouth if you do it. The Advil was really bitter.

I can't remember why I did it. Seems like it was at the end of a long/shitty day, so I was pretty worn out. I think I got the idea in my head that it'd work faster if I chewed it.

Your problem is you tried to chew Mucinex. If you want a chewable decongestant, you need some of this stuff:

[belfpala]

Bad taste: Listerine or other mouthwash

Something stupid I've done: Ummmm.... that would require a TL;DR if I typed everything, so I'll keep it short. Many of the stories do involve using everyday objects improperly, such as trying to use a screwdriver as a can opener and going to the ER for a leg wound as a result.
