The concept of the law is not bad in itself.

We need a way, as a society, to treat the mentally ill against their will if their illness is preventing them from being anything approaching reasonable.

Unless you think that someone with extreme delusions of persecution who won't leave his room because the satellites will see him should just be left alone in his room until he eventually dies.

Obviously these examples in the thread are egregious abuses of this law. I'm in no way advocating something like "oh he's unkempt, better put him in a psych ward forever." The people who use laws like this to effectively remove someone's volition permanently should be punished a great deal for that.

Ibuprofen, as an NSAID, can fuck with your kidneys, but it's nowhere near the same level of risk at which Tylenol can mess up your liver if you take too much.

Still a reasonable precaution if you're already missing a kidney and if there's no huge reason to use an NSAID. But unless you already have kidney problems, there's no huge reason to be worried about it.

(Of course, there's also no reason to be worried about Tylenol unless you're taking too much of it or if you drink a lot, either.)

Obviously if you are worried for any reason, talk to your doctor. But for most people ibuprofen is not sitting in the wings, waiting to pounce on their kidneys at the smallest misstep.
