hrm, yes, i should have worded that differently. perhaps it's more accurate to say that "zany carters and work do not mix well, and the effects can be explosive."

Nuh uhh. ZCs cause chronic retrochronicity. ZCDs cause acute hyperchronicity. At least that's been my experience.

They're free, of course, to anyone who asks. It's a bit like Beetlejuice, except you only have to ask once. [a small gibbon - not Adrian - pops into existence in front of VR holding a silver platter on which sits a tall glass of chocolately-bubbling goodness tapped by a curly straw with a geometry not completely intersecting with this reality but at least its source and sucking end are. The small gibbon says "Here you go, pet" as he hands the glass to VR, then says "Giggle", and disappears with a sound exactly the reverse of that with which he arrived [POP!]]

The alcohol is to temper some of its more extreme effects.

Nope. Nobody can be trusted with the formulation except the sub-recesses of the zorangest corners of the deepest basements of the back of the attic cupboards of my mind where even I don't wander, or at least don't remember wandering without screaming for a good 23 days. Oh, and Adrian.

Clear now?
Pshrynk knows more than most, but forgets most of what he knows and remembers parts that never happened on our last pub crawl but will probably happen on the next. He'd describe it in more elaborate detail, but it'll cost you at least $300, and you'd have to meet the laddie at the door, and general consensus is that the laddie at the door is not to be trusted (I don't trust him...it...and it was my Human Resources department that supplied him...it...as a replacement for the last).

Sure, but "interesting" and "side effects"...do they really count as "productivity"? If so, I'm increasing the price by 200%.

Zelda knows the Montsnmags Enterprises Beverage Division motto: You'll soon get used to it (and then your mind will go nova)

That is technically consistant. A 200% increase of free is still free.

Aye, nervous hysteria is fairly for normal me...the mere thought of a Zany Carter Patricia threw me over the edge and made me run screaming out of the house. (Well, I didn't have to go make dinner for the family then, nervous hysteria has its advantages.)

"Side effects" for others make "work" for you. Yeah, we knew that.
