    From seeing your last post in Know your nerds, the side effects may be of concern to your unborn dude:


    Thalidomide is a sedative-hypnotic, and multiple myeloma medication. The drug is a potent teratogen in rabbits and primates including humans: this means that severe birth defects may result if the drug is taken during pregnancy.

    Three women were in the waiting room of a gynaecologist, and each of them was knitting a sweater for their baby-to-be. The first one stopped and took a pill.

    "What was that?" The others asked her.

    "Oh, it was Vitamin C - I want my baby to be healthy." A few minutes later, another woman took a pill.

    "What was that?" the others asked.

    "Oh, it was iron - I want my baby to be big and strong." They continued knitting. Finally the third woman took a pill.

    "What was that?" the others asked her.

    "It was thalidomide," she said, "I just can't get the arms right on this ****ing sweater!"

    It was given to pregnant mothers by corporates without adequate testing and their kids were born deformed.

    It's drunk Terry. He has a tendency to confuse.

    In all seriousness, they get a lot of abuse but you could never acuse one of them of being a wanker.

    Terry hasn;t been back since the OP.


    The only logical explanation is, he is knocked up with a now mutant baby.

    It was a question in the pub quiz we were at last night.

    On the upside, the other side-effect of the pill was that the victims mickey grew to a length of over 3feet thereby not affecting the ability to have a nice hand-shandy before work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,461 ✭✭✭Queen-Mise


    This is boards at its best (or maybe worst).

    Just how many wish they could retract drunken posts :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    It was the answer to a pub quiz question both Terry and I were at last night (the No Drama Group from Boards fund raiser). I think he was asking what it was and what the story with it was. Hence my factual reply (while also sh*tfaced...)

    Thought it was more of a Jerry Seinfeld / Krusty the Klown opening gambit for a stand up routine myself, á lá....."Sooooo, thalidomide.....whats up with that?"

    @ Dev: Boooooo! for ruining the illusion that Kiera created.......it's a much better question than an answer at a table quiz.

    MC: Okay folks, round 6, question 1........"Thalidomide, Whats up with that?"..........Question 2:.........."What the fcuk are you looking at?"

    I knew the answer. I was just drunk and it was stuck in my head for some reason.
    Anyway, we're done here.
