    Fentanyl is so dangerous that cops can OD just by thinking about it.

    So far! no-one has ever died from loaded halloween candy. (The few incidents have all been inside jobs, like a parent poisoning their own kid).

    The fentanyl candy scare came from brightly colored Oxy tabs that looked like packed-powder candy such as Sweetarts. It was a non-issue, but made for a scare piece to frighten conservative people who believe in teen rainbow parties.

      The original is a boomer cartoon about food allergies/preferences

      This version is making fun of a weird scare going on with people claiming that folk are lacing Halloween candy with drugs

        I can’t stand the woke mob catering to people’s allergies. Back in my day we would just suck it up and die.

        It’s the same scare that’s been around since he olden days. Seriously. They used to blast this in the news in the 90’s before we went out Trick or Treating.

      The original is a boomer humour comic complaining about PM10 pollution from cars and all the allergies it gives kids. The message of the comic is that we should invest in public transit and walkability to reduce car pollution.

      I’d also very much like someone to explain what this is

        It’s making fun of Americans who believe that children who go trick or treating are getting candy laced with fentanyl.

            As with all things - the poison is in the dose (and delivery). It would depend how much fentanyl is added to how much candy, and how much candy the kid eats. Also how old and how large the kid is.

    Old classic, still easily quotable to help align brainwave to prime telepathy synchronization (aka having other friends remeber the joke)

      Cheaper by a lot usually

      Edit for clarity: this is strictly speaking on non pharma stuff.
