I recognized her voice too. She has a nice voice, it's her words that I object to.

Generally, I stick with aspirin when needed. Sometimes I'll use a Naproxin generic (Aleve equivalent), but I shy away from it.

Not a fan of pain killers in general. I have a history of alcohol abuse, so I have to be careful about that shit.

The issue is people aren't tracking how much they take. They'll take. Tylenol PM, cold and flu, or Vicodin and then more acetaminophen on top of it.

Taking a couple acetaminophen for pain every now and then won't damage your liver.

I take a generic/store version of acetaminophen. Anyone know if Tylenol is involved in manufacturing the generics? I have sometimes severe back pain and need something besides aspirin. I can't take Ibuprofin either.

I despise Sarandon but I don't want to be howling in pain!

I take a blood thinner and I was told that the only over the counter painkiller I could take is acetaminophen.

I think the generic/store brands are made elsewhere.
I have a medicine cabinet full of Giant brand ("Care One&quot OTC stuff, it's all good.

for money that she needs to do voice over for commercials? Seriously, why? Why not give someone on the lower end of acting a chance to make a few thousand.

That $50 million fortune doesn't spontaneously generate, you know. She makes it by promoting the profits of multinational conglomerates, like L'Oréal, that make billions by exploiting workers in the Global South. I don't recall if Tylenol is among them, but if you thought you heard her, you're probably right.

The dictionary should have her photo next to the word hypocrite.
