“…You know what an avatar is, right?”

    “Sure, had a prescription once, but they always made me a little, I
don’t know, nauseous?”


While there is a prescription drug called Avatar, it’s for river blindness
and/or diarrhea caused by worms.

I think this is a humorous reference to the benzodiazepine Ativan ?

If you need to be knocked out, this works but only for about 4 hours. YMMV
of course…
