The Union Jack boot-heel is a pretty big hint. I have kitchen ibuprofen and bathroom ibuprofen, does that count?

[–] cRazi_man@europe.pub 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What are you doing in the bathroom to make you need ibuprofen after?

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 week ago

Getting ready for bed. Laying in which will make me too stiff and unconfortable to sleep without an NSAID (or sometimes a SAID) onboard.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 63 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I hate their stage names. Baby, Sporty, Posh? Why tf didn't they use actual spice names? Ginger was already there. Why others weren't called Cinnamon, Pepper, Clove, and Nutmeg? Fucking Brits. 😤😡🤬

[–] tias@discuss.tchncs.de 92 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Brits don't actually use spices in their food so they probably couldn't think of any.

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 1 points 6 days ago

Indeed, they use them steeped in hot water.

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's true. Few of their dishes are known to curry f[l]avor.

[–] kraftpudding@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Curry spice would be a phenomenal spice girl

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Her real name could be Cori Ander.

[–] violetring@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

Actually, the names were coined by a writer working for a pop magazine. He based the names on their personalities. After the article was published the names spread like wildfire with the public.

It wasn't till later that The Spice Girls officially adopted the names. At least some of the members actually hated them. Unfortunately, all their fans were already using them, so the group didn't have much of a choice.

[–] bstix@feddit.dk 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're all Old Spice now.

If it wasnt for the English flag boots, I don't think I would even have guessed. I wasn't into the Spice Girls.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That’s the Scottish flag.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 22 points 1 week ago (3 children)

It's a Union Jack. So it's only 1/3 Scottish.

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 12 points 1 week ago

Union Jill if it’s on a lady’s boot.

No idea what this is referencing. But have "purse" ibuprofen, home ibuprofen, and even minivan ibuprofen.

Why yes, I do have chronic pain and migraines. How could you tell?

[–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You just need some Spice in your life Girls.

I sent the image to my partner and accidentally caused her psychic damage by not immediately knowing that this was the Spice Girls too. I was born in '90 while she was born in '85 and I was like 26 when we got together, so we're not that far apart in age. But where that gap falls is sometimes huge for us.

She's apocalyptically gay, like "Mistook not being entirely repulsed by a boy for having a crush on them," gay. So naturally, she was obsessed with the Spice Girls. I knew of them, but I didn't really start branching out in my music tastes until the mid 2000's. Before that it was basically entirely the Country music my Mom listened to or the Classic Rock my Dad listened to.

So yeah, this was another thing that I accidentally caused psychic damage to my partner with because of our age difference.

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You mean purse autism and home autism?

[–] 0ndead@infosec.pub 1 points 5 days ago

Purse superpowers and home superpowers

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm guessing this is joke about US vs rest of the world,

But acetaminophen is Paracetamol

Ibuprofen is ibuprofen

Yo, tell me what you want, what you really, really want, I'll tell you want I want, what I really, really want ..... I really, really want some ibuprofen

I having some now from my desk supply of ibuprofen, but I do also have some garage ibuprofen and some bedroom ibuprofen .... the best part is that I am a big brown long haired Native guy that knows these damned lyrics .... and I'm embarrassed to say I know who all the shoes belong to - clockwise from the Union Jack high heel - Ginger, Scary, Sporty, Posh, Baby.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I grew up with those sassy bitches.

I don’t take ibuprofen, but I do drink a lot of caffeine to dull the ocular migraines.

I'm pretty sure these are Spice Girls but I don't get the ibuprofen part.

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 week ago

I'm guessing people who remember them are now old enough to need this medication.

[–] ultranaut@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

When you spice up your life for so long it starts to hurt.

[–] EtAl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Someone spell this out for me. What's the connection between Spice Girls and Ibuprofen?

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 15 points 1 week ago

Getting older and recognizing a dated reference.

I have gout, which runs in my family (but I doubt the 90s pints helped). Therefore I was eating Ibuprofen like skittles for way too long to take the pain away. I finally relented and got on the meds after the diet and exercise didn't fix it. Now I never take ibuprofen, and it makes me worry about how much damage I did to my organs and stomach lining while I was using it.

[–] YaDownWitCPP@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

When's the last time you checked the expiration date on all this ibuprofen?
