Administration:
SkillPills, in general, are recommended every other week. This pitching skillpill is essential to you at least once in your lifetime

Over dosage:
Too much SkillPills might turn you into a know-it-all. Symptoms include giving tips at random times, and sharing unexpected fun facts with those around you. This annoys some people. Consume at your own risk.
