SWMBO won a raffle prize today - a bottle-sized wine glass.
IME people who drink a whole bottle of wine don't usually bother with a glass.
Drink responsibly? Yeah right!

Well I can quite easily polish off a bottle on my own but it would always go into a generous sized glass first, but one that size has to be a joke... which of course it is.
Don't limit the friends you haven't met with arguments you'll never have.

Bottle? Glass?
I thought those box things with the convenient nozzle were for one person!
(One person who knows nothing about wine. . .)

Yes, sleeping pills always come with a warning that they may cause drowsiness, and also "Do not drive or operate heavy machinery".
I'm on a small dose of an antihypertensive, and it comes with a warning that it may cause low blood pressure.

Ha Ha! but the next to last really should pride of place!
Label: Ask a doctor before use if you have difficulty urinating due to an enlarged prostate. Product: Midol Menstrual Complete Sound advice from Merck. But should sufferers of premenstrual syndrome really lose sleep over enlarged prostates?
Though in this transgender age, I'm not so sure.

Yes, a bit like those (unisex) medical forms at Occupational Health, the dentist's etc. that keep asking me if I'm pregnant.

Not so sure that gender reassignment surgery can provide one with a womb and the other with a prostate just quite yet, but give it time.

Almost as stupid as those who buy cigarettes despite the label saying the product will kill them.
