Allergic to Cheap

A woman came to our office today to meet with my boss and she was wearing an entire can of Designer Imposters. About 5 minutes after she walked in the door I started feeling a little queasy. Since I am on antibiotics, I assumed it was a side effect and carried on. About 15 minutes went by and I felt worse so I went over to CVS where the pharmacist told me that I shouldn't take Pepto Bismol for the nausea because it wouldn't work well with the antibiotics. I bought some saltines and ginger ale and went back to the office. After munching a few crackers and sipping the ginger ale, I still wasn't any better so I turned off the lights, closed the door and laid down on the floor for 20 minutes. Still not better. At this point I had an inkling that it might be the "perfume." I heard the woman leave and decided to get up and get back to work. Within 15 minutes of her departure, I was cured.
