Yeah right.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostIf you change your mind, you'll need to take a shedload of methionine
So to get rid of that you'll need a big dose of folic acid and vitamin E.

Within 2 days, all the hair had grown back on my baldy patch, and I was was walking around sporting a permenant massive boner for 2 WEEKS

Wouldn't it be more sensible to skip straight to the vitamins and get an early night?Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostIf you change your mind, you'll need to take a shedload of methionine to counteract the effects.
But will that will convert to homocysteine, which can cause heart problems and increase the risk of dementia.

But if you need to pop down to the chemists to buy pills for an overdose, remember you need at least 10 packets of paracetemol & the staff are only allowed to sell you two packets. Come back and PM us and we'll have a whip round.

That will make the world look like a lot better place and will allow you to see the bits you need to work on and the bits you should simply be ignoring.
But I know the pain when agile methodology means we can have everything NOW.
