WTF Monday


Dontcha just love the menu boards in Chinese herbal medicine shops?
It's the 'all ages' bit that creeps me out.

And don't get your sex drive capsules confused with your eczema capsules.
Icky!

Now with eczema! What a deal!

dive said...

Not to be missed, Vanda.

savannah said...

well, if it keeps you from scratching... xoxoxox

(ok, i just grossed myself out!)

Cheltenhamdailyphoto said...

Perhaps it's an all-ills type of remedy? ;)

dive said...

Savannah: Eww! Hee hee.
xoxoxox

Lynn: I shall certainly not be trying it, however ill I might feel.

Katie said...

How can they tout "no side effects" and then say it causes Eczema and Psoriasis? Is Psoriasis when you sit too long without stretching?

neetzy said...

Katie, I think that's Psorassis, (closely related to and often accompanying Hemmorhhoids.

Dive, you have a great eye for these icky combinations.

Ms M said...

Well, this combination should turn on anyone who's lost their happiness. ;)
BTW, one of the topical treatments for psoriasis is coal tar.

Hope you manage a better ride home tonight...after the terrible journey last night...

Scout said...

Ick—for all ages. And it gives you curtains and fabrics, too.

That's too funny, Dive. I actually like the line "Bring the lost happiness to all ages"; just a shame that it refers to sex, it would be a great line if it referred to a walk in the park instead :)

Petrea Burchard said...

"Sex Drive" should be the name of a quiet cul de sac.

dive said...

Katie: Hee hee.

Neetzy: Well spotted. And yes, Icky and myself go well together.

Ms.M: Sheesh! That's brought back memories of childhood and "Wright's Coal Tar Soap", which was kind of see-through amber coloured and stank to high Heaven.

Mum: Yup. Made it home.

Robyn: Yes, the Mall caters for all tastes except for those with … er … taste.

Mme: Yes, these days a nice walk in the park is about as much happiness as I can take.

Petrea: Hee hee! You made me laugh so hard it hurt.

Katherine said...

Petrea! LOL!

Try Tantra instead. No capsules required, but Hindi music might be suggested.

dive said...

Hoorah for Hindi music, Katherine! Thanks to you I've now put on my big boxed set of Lata Mangeshkar and will happily groove the rest of the day away.
Yay!

Petrea Burchard said...

I'm so glad for the laughs. Maybe I'll use it in a short story. Have a lovely day (or evening, as the case may be).

dive said...

You too, Petrea. I'm now about to finish work on work and start work on dinner.
