having a friend that’s as insane about The Character as you is great because you can say something like “he’s so chewable” and not only will they agree, they’ll say something equally as insane like “he’s like children’s medicine”
Vitamin designers discovering Fred Flintstone
at one of the pharmacies i used to work at, there was a prescription filling machine that printed the package with info about the medicine, and sometimes i had to update the listing because the machine didn’t yet have full data on a particular kind of pill. One time it was Flintstones vitamins and i had to ask every damn pharmacist in the place what the hell i should put for “shape of tablet.” I don’t even remember what i ended up typing. whoever invented that shit did not anticipate the information age.
