    Got paid $500 bucks to participate in a drug study to get my wisdom teeth removed at the U of Penn in Philly. I was a broke student at the time so that was rent, plus utilities.
    Woke up mid-procedure to the doctor violently shaking my head back and forth with a vice grip thing in my mouth and I saw shards of my teeth on a tray in front of me. I asked if I could take them home with me, he gassed me and that was that.
    Bummer - I got the placebo.

    • if you woke up, it wasn't a placebo, because you didn't sleep through the process of breaking your tooth apart and yanking out pieces with a wrench :)monospaced
    • The "painkiller" post-procedure was a placebo.stoplying
