It's Worse Than Awful

I interrupt your regularly scheduled program of bitching and moaning to.....well...to bitch and moan some more. I've been trying to fight off this horror show of a cold for a few days now. My sister told me to get this shit called Buckley's. She promised me that it works miracles. Well, the bitch must really despise me, because this shit is the ugliest thing I've ever put in my mouth. And that's saying a lot.

I figured Buckley's would taste like every other cough syrup. You know, they all taste like a delicious Lifesaver dipped in formaldehyde. Buckley's is nothing like that. I can't explain it. It's seriously Satan's sperm. That's probably the secret ingredient.

Whenever I swallow it, my nipples clench. Not only does it taste like sex club ass, but it's not pretty on the eyes either. It sort of looks like yellow jizz. It's like when a dude has to cum and piss at the same time, and it both comes out. Yeah, that's what it looks like.

I've been taking it the past couple of days and still hasn't fixed shit! The only thing it's done is improve my gagging reflex slightly. Hmmm....that's not such a bad thing.

Okay, rant over. And now I'm off to gag on some Buckley's.

I do not recommend this for heavy drinkers because I don't know the effects.

Congestion - hold your nose and drink a cup of white vineger. It works in minutes.

But that's just me.

Now I want to buy it just to see how awful it is. I'm really immature like that.

Sorry- Saw that featured in Six Feet Under and it freaks me the hell out! You pour water up your nose, right? Nasal douche. It's that whole water can drown you thing... Glad you've been well though.

MK so sorry about the cold. I will give you one hint...neti pot. I have been using a neti pot to irrigate my sinuses at least 4 times a week and I have not had any cold or flu or any sinus problems. I have been doing this for 9 months now and swear by it!!

I was rolling on my side from laughing at this shit. MK, I hope you get to feeling better, but I love that fact that even though your poor self feels like shit, you still make me laugh my ass off. Feel better.

I can pinpoint how it tastes. You know vick's vapo rub? Melt that down into a liquid, drink it, and bam, that's what buckley's tastes like.

Damn MK is always sick! How does this bitch constantly get sick? I haven't been sick in 7 years. But I'm a germaphobe so maybe that's what keeps me from catching stuff.

MK, build up your strength. Do what you gotta do but take good care of yourself. Only one life to live.

Love ya.

-And I'm gone for the evening. Peace to all and to all a good night.

MK, thats the Nastyest Taste Ever!!!

I was in Canada when I got the worst cough and the dude in the pharmacy recommended it... Bastard he never told me it tasted like shit!

But It worked though... If you have a bad cough, drink tequila with lime, and you will feel much more better!

Wow.. are you joking?

Nope. I'm in Raleigh, NC. It may very well be available here, though, and I just haven't seen it. I haven't had a bad cold in years, so I don't really hang out in the OTC drug aisles.

Aspirin is a drug, alavert is a drug, we all do drugs, just some of us have more of a variety in our medicine cabinets than others :D

I find the gag reflex important while taking drugs. So many of them make me want to retch, except acid and pot for some odd reason.

Your face!

It tastes like crap...but it frikken works...I didn't believe it...but it does.....

Why be difficult when taking Buckleys helps you be professionally impossible! IT WORKS!

No problem kradcofan. My family and I swear by that home remedy 'cept if you're preggers.

I am glad to hear somebody else knows about the 'torture but effective' remedy :)
Again, thanks for the heads up about the preggers info.

dani bo bani's picture

it's made in canada, yeah. and the vile stuff actually works!! clears your chest and sinuses all in one go.
my sure shot method of swallowing buckleys:
1. pour it on a teaspoon
2. pinch your nose closed.
3. cringe and swallow
4. don't let your tongue touch the roof of your mouth for at least 30 seconds.

Oh Michael K! All ya gotta do is take a break from giving us all our Vitamin D-Listed and get outside in the sun and get you some Vitamin D! Take better care of yourself! We need you! And BTW, I swear by Cola syrup for nausea, if that's what's ailing ya!

It's made in Canada, been using it for years. It tastes like I imagine Drano would. It fairly scares the flu outta you, those germs run like hell....for me anyway. Hope you feel better soon.

Mike, I was wondering the same thing, never heard of it, I'm in FL.

I was just on their website, they make a kids formula too.

MK, did your sis tell you this comes in caplets?

The site says it tastes bad, you know the shit is nasty tasting when the people that make it admit it!

I bought this stuff and opened it once I got home and decided I would rather be on my deathbed.

MK....you dork. No wonder you are gaggin'! You aren't supposed to deep throat the BOTTLE, fool! Put the bottle down!

Seriously, go get your sick ass a steaming bowl of Vietnamese beef noodle soup called pho. It is the perfect cure. Trust.

Buckley's is the best....it really works. If you don't have your inhaler, use Buckley's.

It does taste like shit. I like to watch my brothers' face when they take it.

Kdracofan, your mom knows the good shit (you Latino?). That stuff works but do not take it if you are knocked up and want to keep the baby. That's abortion in a cup!

No way! holy kaka pupu! that's scary but good to know Khandi (thanks). Yeah hun I am Latina.

Well, Michael, last week I had to take this liquid potassium medicine because my potassium levels were too low after being sick, and all I could think when I was taking it every day was "Holy fuck, I didn't think there was anything on this earth that tasted worse than Buckley's"....but that shit did.
Blech.

MK haven't you seen the commercials? (Or are they only shown in Canada?) The whole marketing campaign is built on how horrible it tastes - meaning it's no nonsense and will kick your cold's ass. Apparently.

My dad SWORE by 666 Cold Medicine. Those nasty little brown pills were a powerful laxative that caused your stomach to hurt so bad that your toes would curl. I think the power of this medicine was that your stomach and ass hurt so much that you pretty well forgot about your cold.
