The gg loves those instructions you get from the pharmacist when he or she fills your prescription. I usually get a kick in particular from those warnings about possible side effects. Today, I picked up a prescription for some creme or ointment to cure this terrible night-time itchy rash on the back of my legs and buttocks. The itch had gotten so bad,it was driving me crazy. The instructions that came with the creme/ointment contained the following (I swear):
"Why is it prescribed? For the treatment of Dermatitis,
Psoriasis and other itchy skin disorders.
"Possible side effects: Itching"
It goes on to give these usage instructions:
"Apply to Buttock Twice a Day for 2 Weeks."
It doesn't indicate which buttock, so the gg can only assume they mean that I should apply it to the itchy one.
This little bit of humor made my day and I couldn't resist sharing it with the readers. A few more instances like this and the gg might make it through a whole day without feeling grouchy. But, alas, it was not to be.
