"Intoxicated" by Novocaine?

It likely wasn't Novocaine, as that's been discontinued for a couple of years. Either 1. it's made up for clicks or 2. the grandmother just typed a generic anesthetic that they knew of rather than the exact compound putting them down/numbing them for surgery.

It's a gateway drug. Soon grandma will be injecting benzocaine between her toes and turning tricks for tubes of lidocaine. It's called riding the numb pony and it's an epidemic.

We were somewhere around Wendy’s, on the edge of the strip mall, when the mild topical anesthetic began to take hold.

Social media has kind of whipped itself up into a sort of mass hysteria were anything that looks like a Crewmate gets "amogus" replies and the like.

You know the "permabanned fyad poster" copypasta? It's like that.

I think it has to do with those branded meals that fast food places have been doing, where Travis Scott and other celebrities plug their favorite McDonalds combo or whatever. Guess the OP was tricked into thinking there was a similar branded meal for Among Us, and then went in and tried to order one.

If that's just it, it's a really dumb prank and not particularly funny. "Oh you were tricked into trying to order something they don't actually sell."

In high school I explained to a girl that since CDs worked off lasers, which is just concentrated light, if you pointed a cd at the sun and spun it fast enough on your finger you could listen to the music and she did it to the point her finger bled and I had to stop her out of a feeling of personal guilt.

Filing that one away to tell my kid when she's just old enough to understand science but not wise enough to stop trusting me.

I think it's funny you think your kid will ever try and listen to a cd. They won't know what one is unless you tell them.
