You know the
candyman, the one who ensures a great
party by making sure everyone has their
drugs.
My friend Mack always goes to a
party with lots of pills. When people drink
alcohol, he gives them
cysteine,
thiamine, and
vitamin C. When they take
MDMA, he gives them
5-HTP. When they eat
guacamole, he gives them
vitamin E.
For every
candyman, there must be a milkman.
A completely different point about milkmen:
In the early 20th century, before
refrigeration was common and
reliable, the milkman would deliver fresh
milk to people's homes each day. In the
archetypical American
suburban family, the
wife would be at home, being
domestic, while the
husband was out at work. So she was home alone, except that occasionally a nice young man would drop by...
At one time, a common idiom / joke was to suggest that an individual looked like the milkman. This was understood to imply that their mother was
unfaithful.
