So the other day my thumb was hurting pretty bad, and it had felt that way for almost a week. So, I did what any normal person would do: I chopped it off.

It was at that time I remembered my mother was a nurse, and maybe she had some better ideas. After I regained my conscienceness (excessive loss of blood IS NOT a good thing, apparently), I reconnected my nerve endings between my thumb and hand and sewed it all back together. I then proceeded to call my mom and tell her the whole story. She suggested I take one (1) Tylenol and two (2) Ibuprofen every six (6) hours. Twelve (12) hours later - BAM - thumb is all better.


Something else I learned in this magical journey of mine - Tylenol kills your liver. Now, I understand just as much the next bro that the liver deserves to be punished, but Tylenol is just an extremely inhumane way of doing it, man. The bottle says to take NO MORE than 8 Tylenols every 24 hours. That ain't a whole lot. This is some strong shit, man; and when you consider how EASY it is to abuse Tylenol, pfft, man, you might as well point a gun to your livers head.

I was recommended, by a VERY RELIABLE SOURCE, that you should take no more than 4 Tylenols every 24 hours. This is just general usage. It is still recommended to listen to whatever the fuck your doctor says, because he's a fucking doctor. He has a god damn PHD in this shit.
