Stupid medicine

I was sick on Friday and here is what I don't get. If you are sick, you are generally weaker than one who is say...well. Let's say somewhere between child strength and normal adult strength. So, what is the deal with making sick people find superhuman strength to get into those medicine packets??? Child proof is important, yes, but if I am having to bite and poke and finally resort to fingernail cutters, I think that we have rocketed past the mark of safety. I can only figure that I am being punished for buying generic. We sell it for less but you have to use a chainsaw to take it. The worst part is that I don't even feel any better. Of course the construction workers out back, whose stapler guns sound like someone popping giant size popcorn, who only stop for lunch when the next door neighbor comes home from work to practice his drums are probably not helping either. What adult has drums in his living room? Thank goodness I married a nerd. All he has is computers and those come with headphones.
