When I was in the middle of my sickness, Bill went to the store to get me some medicine. Since I had a bad cough, he got me some Sucrets cough drops. While sitting there, miserable, I looked over at the box, and had this epiphany: Sucrets backwards spells "stercus." Why is this noteworthy? Because stercus is Latin for "shit." Is this really something I want to put in my mouth at this point?
Remember, stercus accidit.
