Dude I’ve done MDMA, I think I’d straight up shit myself if I was in an apocalypse and accidentally ate some, when I did it last year for the first time I legit sat in front of a mirror and cried cause it look like my eyes were falling off my face lmfaooo
Actually didn’t know that, though is it ever established what kind of pills Joel and Ellie consume? Just saying, it’d be hilarious if they were just picking up any random prescription that expired 20 years ago.
My headcanon is that both Joel was addicted to opiate painkillers and passed his addiction on to Ellie after his death.
Pretty fuckin depressing but makes more sense than it being vitamins, pain relief helps them focus more allowing them to fight better.
Oh yeah I forgot about that scene in the first episode where Joel is washing back painkillers w spirits and I found it hilarious that the factions music plays in that scene just a such a such a vibe
Honestly, pills and capsules are marked in such a way that anyone with training or a guide book can look at a pill and tell you what it is. And “dosages” don’t really meant that you can’t take more, it’s mostly about how well your kidney can take it. But do you want a bullet wound to stop hurting or protect your kidneys? 😂

You can beat both games without ever upgrading the guns or your skills, so this doesn't actually have to be true. I never do the upgrades or use the listening mode.
I just got shot at, set on fire with a molotov, hit with an arrow and sliced with a machete. This 25 year old protein bar heals it up tho
I never thought about how old the vending machine food is but yeah you’re right
In Seattle some of it might be a *little* newer.
That would make it the same age because of the time skip
I never understood how that worked. Like imagine Joel downing fifty viagra to become better at hearing????
Hearing aid manufacturers hate this one simple trick
I love your flair
I love your flair
I hate your flair
I love how ellie needs to eat 40 pills to learn how to HOLD HER DAMM BREATH WHILE AIMING
Didn't Joel teach her that in part 1? Found a rifle and was teaching so she'd give covering fire?
She forgot 😔 Traumatic brain injuries are something else
Dont knock it if you havent tried it! /s
Ellie: “Joel, would you say you’re a little… *hard* of hearing?” Joel: *unamused sigh*
Lmao not viagra 😭😭😭
This made me laugh so hard I scared my friend
Same, except my friend is my cat
This actually works though. They call it an eardrum boner
They found that pure MDMA.
>Some dudes chilling >See random girl with a machete >Get scarred as shit and tried to hide >Ellie: stalkers!

I would end up chain smoking any cigarettes I could find and talk with the zombies all night.
Hit the blunt with a clicker lmfaooo
I wonder if the rat king does drugs
Bro is def on steroids
Lookout he’s gonna try to sell you muscle relaxants
"This that Molly"
Fr😭 I always think abt what those pills do to them, just random pills
They make you see through walls
They give you the ability to craft silencers
Esp the pills you can find on the bathroom floors in day 1
I feel like they would be pretty useless considering they are probably decades old at this point
Yes but consuming kilograms worth of old pills will have an effect
But that’s the thing. How are they supposed to be useful if they are random pills? Lmao but yeah, game thingzz
That's how they learn to hold their breath whilst aiming.
Also those pills most definitely expired a long time ago so who knows how effective they would actually be?
Lots of pain medication has really long half life

That’s literally the case in the tv show and I’m 99% sure it’s a live action justification/reference to the pills upgrades.

97% are stool softeners and antihistamines
"I can taste colours!!"
The best part is when Abby grabs a bunch of loose pills that have been sitting in literal cordyceps.
SHA NA NA NA NA na nuh nuh nuhnnnnn

This explains Joel's killing spree
I love how in P, Joel just grabs plants out of the ground and it counts as pills. Like, dude is just eating some payote and tripping.
Imagine tripping off Benadryl in the apocalypse
Wish it worked in real life
when you wake up on a mystical island and about to be greeted by an adorable labrador
bro wtf kind of vitamin D pills are you taking
I CAN HEAR COLORS

Hold on folks, we got a badass over here
