Ya know Larry, unless you know something the rest of us do not, calling
someone who takes pain killers


He takes narcotics. Call them what they are.

nar•cot•ic (när kot‚ik) n.1. any of a class of habituating or
addictive substances that blunt the senses and in increasing doses cause
confusion, stupor, coma, and death: some are used in medicine to relieve
intractable pain or induce anesthesia.

2. anything that exercises a soothing or numbing effect or influence.
