From Wikipedia:

Excedrin is an over-the-counter headache pain reliever, typically in the form of tablets or caplets. It contains acetaminophen (paracetamol), aspirin, and caffeine.

Maybe you should just buy a cheap bottle of generic aspirin instead of a brand name product that contains an ingredient you don't want and a touch of caffeine (readily available from all kinds of sources)

Homer: Dear Lord, The gods have been good to me. For the first time in my life, everything is absolutely perfect just the way it is. So here's the deal: You freeze everything the way it is, and I won't ask for anything more. If that is OK, please give me absolutely no sign. OK, deal. In gratitude, I present you this offering of cookies and milk. If you want me to eat them for you, give me no sign. Thy will be done.

It's like we're forming up a lynch mob! I've had my ass handed to me for suggesting due process for everyone before.... Maybe this time I'll just stand in back with a pitchfork and wait for every one to calm down. By tomorrow every one here will be screaming for it again.

I've had a couple, but here goes:

I was aware that I was comparing apples and oranges but the juxtaposition of two similar thoughts in apparent discord was amusing. Particularly if you assume sexist guy that "can't" tell the difference between two women.

You did the right thing, the guys worried about your gender weren't worried about doing their jobs or you doing yours, this means an office full of the daily WTF and some light sexual harassment to go with it.

Oh yeah? For my rebuttal, I'm bringing out the big guns:

Seriously though, I know what you intended in context there, and this isn't exactly it. While it does concern me that we have elected leaders that believe crazy things, as long as they do the job and don't force them on me through the law, I can live with that. I don't ask about the personal beliefs of the guys that design cars as long as I can get one without that jesus fish thing on it.

Well written and I agree. That didn't stop me from giggling a bit at your sig...

I don't want to have to worry that my co-workers are continually holding me accountable or interpreting things I say or do as if I were somehow the same as the other women they had worked with.

Since I can't tell them apart, I treat all ACs as the same person.
