    Fun fact:

    Paracetamol, a pain killer legal in England, is banned in the US while Acetaminophen, a pain killer legal in the US, is banned in England.

    Edit: I am in fact, quite wrong. These are the same thing! So I’ve just learned today.

    Paracetamol = Tylenol = Acetaminophen

          they say that ignorance is root of all evil, better hit some books before judgement day
