    It sounds really fun if it does work! I could make a "Happy Pill" that made you happy, or maybe a pill that made you better at designing? That would be nice :). Problem is though, that you can't make them yourself otherwise you'll know it's an ordinary pill :(.

    :) Yes i admit to exagerating in the sense of possibly stating as if it was to the maximum that you would see from Roids, i fully understand you not believing it and i fully repect your opinion.

    There are different types of Steroid physics remember, im not talking Ronnie Coleman size and freakiness here, but still clearly steroid looking, without the actual gear being real.

    You will know yourself the difference between a natural and a steroid physique anyway, its no big deal, no fall out, i was just taking part in a thread. :eek:

    Placebo is real. Won't cure blindness but the mind is a powerful tool.

    They sure do work as a lot of the diseases are psychological.

    this is a silly question. it doesn't matter if i think they work, it matters if YOU think they work.

    psst . . . m&ms are happy pills

    Well I mean, you wouldn't know, really, regardless of what you believe.

    "Here take these pills"
    "Ok"

    Two weeks later...

    "How did those pills work?"
    "Great!"
    "They were placebos..."
    "WHAT! I don't believe in placebos!"
