So, last night, after overeating at my local Chinese Buffet, including food containing MSG which I’m allergic to, some questionable raw sushi, and a pot of some very hot tea, then catching an Uber to my local sports bar where I consumed 6 vodka gimlets as a group of very loud regulars argued about the “greatest of all time” NFL players, I suddenly felt very ill and ran to my local 24-hour Urgent Care Clinic…
