So Vicks makes a cough syrup with no artificial dyes or flavors, no alcohol, and no high fructose corn syrup. I bought a bottle this morning so I could take something that would keep me from coughing like I'd just escaped a respiratory ward and go to work.

Turns out the corn syrup is there for a reason. Without that and the artificial flavors, cough suppressant + decongestant + expectorant cough medicine tastes like evil. Not as evil as Buckley's, but pretty evil.

Heads up.

Decided the other day that I wanted a PC that could be used to run Skyrim so that I'd be able to use ALL THE MODS. Figured I'd look into building a system 'cos I didn't feel like dealing with cruftware and manufacturer utilities and all that crap, also 'cos it had been a while since I built a machine.

I have discovered there is one word that sums up the visual aspect of the Gamer PC Part Aesthetic, and the word is dekotora.

I have an immense urge to build the most featureless matte grey box possible now purely out of spite.
