    Upvoted because I agree with the actual point you’re making.

    Now I’m going to nitpick a completely off topic point that doesn’t change what you’re saying, but maybe we should use a different example.

    There have been studies that show kids literally cannot get enough candy/sugar. So much so, that in the 1800s before medicine was understood, they used obscene amounts of sugar for kids as a pain reliever, which actuactually did work to a small extent.

    Adults however will NOT eat candy unlimited, as they have a switch in their brain that tells them “Ok, thats enough. Now it’s going to start tasting not as good”. Eventually they won’t even enjoy candy.

    So I recomend your last bit of that message should read:

    “It’s not candy for kids, or blowjobs/lickjobs for adults, where people will take as much as they can get. Everyone wants to get well ASAP.”
