The pothole is a powerful medical tool.

In the industry I've heard tell of it cardioverting patients out of SVT, killing patients with an AAA, and spilling the coffee of medics who were not vigilant about their drink discipline (SCMWWNVADD)

New Pfizer pothole gummies!

Delicious gummies, each with a little pothole in case you were falling a sleep at the wheel again... Larry!

pothole gummies

Sounds like a THC gummy so strong that it makes you unable to move, like a cannabis version of a K-hole.

Did that one of the few times I have consumed weed, would not recommend.

Got my revenge on the family member that fed me way too much (and used fucking hash mixed with frosting, which was disgusting) by puking on their bed a few hours later.

Interestingly, I have lately been seeing articles saying that humans who have been declared braindead and regained consciousness have reported hearing conversations that took place several hours after the declared brain death. No links, it was a different device and aren't in history, but I'm sure searches will return something. Not vouching for veracity, either.
