God gives his toughest challenges (not eating all the cookies) to his strongest warriors (me).

wait, they’re called Tums because they’re for your tumtum? i learn so much from this site

i retract that statement. you people feed me lies.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tums#History

I might suggest that indeed the brand Tums is named for your tumtum based on the originating phrase “Tums for the Tummy” and the fact that tumtum is derived from the word tummy, thus there may be no deception here only indigestion from too many brownies

oh my bad i got to the “[it] was named after Howe’s uncle” bit and stopped. but it was the company which was named after the inventor’s uncle… the product was indeed named after that radio slogan you quote.

I love how completely wrong the thumbnails are sometimes

Found the Kbin user. Do you sometimes get NSFW thumbnails even with NSFW turned off?

i definitely don't have NSFW turned off, and actually I don't get many NSFW content even so. I could definitely wish for more.
