But the Christfuckers we do have are obnoxious and loud enough to make you think otherwise

You'd get even weirder looks if you said "those persons travel a lot", while also sounding like someone who doesn't really speak the language.

"Those people" can be a racist or classist dog whistle, but isn't always, and also there isn't really an alternative. Say what you're going to say, and don't worry too much about it. The people who would misinterpret it to fit an agenda are probably going to do so regardless of what words you use.

The pharmacist did say that it was to reduce the queasiness since both the antibiotic and the steroid I was prescribed are apparently quite rough on the stomach, so I have to take the pills with food, which I inferred to mean as a meal. Which was fine when I took them with lunch and dinner yesterday since obviously that's gonna be tons of food to go with it, but then it came to this morning, and I don't normally eat breakfast. I wasn't sure if something simple like toast or a granola bar which I would take with the morning dose would be enough food to counteract it, since obviously I didn't want to spend my morning with a miserable stomach.

 

Like, is it enough just to have something like a granola bar with it, or do they really mean a full meal?

They sell them cut like that as dog treats, with the hole packed with food. Probably either dragged out as a treat for some camper's dog or scavenged by wildlife and abandoned when the good stuff was gone.
