Opiates do nothing for me either, however, with my last dental infection i googled ibuprofen and Tylenol together.  Turns out it's a real thing and worked grest.  I don't remember the doses of each but Google it.  Might help you too.

I didn't take them together but when I had the flu several years ago my doctor told me to alternate them every few hours for my fever, so I could have one or the other in my system continuously without risking overdosing.

Steven stole his brother's pain killers... I see he's still a dirt bag

[Ivylady]

Of course Steven stole Justin's pills. Jackass. 

[QuinnInND]

Steven stole Justin's pain pills?? Asshole.  This whole family is disfunctional. 

[Armchair Critic]

If the father is such a tough guy then why didn't he whip his son's butts into shape?

I heard about those acid trips too! Guess I'll try some Nyquil!

Eh, you have to ask for the special NyQuil now. They took the fun stuff out because people were using it to make meth. Some places still have it behind the counter and will sell it if you ask nicely. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

And the father gets mad at Justin for saying Steven stole his pain meds?     

[ams1001]

He's like my mom always trying to get my brother and I to hug when we're leaving a family thing. Except she doesn't yell and my brother and I don't actually hate each other (we're just not close).

[mmecorday]

Wait, why are they suddenly calling Steven John?

[Wanda]

Justin thought this was a good edit?

[QuinnInND]

Dad gave him the pills????

My sister and I haven"t spoken in years. No loss either.

I have two brothers; haven't had any interaction with one of them for over 30 years. I am spectacularly unbothered by this.

I got jumbo blueberries a couple weeks ago. So yummy!

Y’all are just out of control! (Hides the watermelon)

[ShortyMac]

Steven Sr. gave Steven Justin's pain pills!!

S/J Dad - STOP forcing them together! Justin is an adult and doesn't have to have a relationship with him!!!!!!

I'm waiting for that week-and-a-half every summer when the yellow watermelon shows up at the farmer's market and roadside stalls... and then disappears for another sad 51 weeks. 

Blackberries and figs tend to do that as well.

[ams1001]

"I gave him ten of your pills...you should be helping him get off the drugs."

Father of the year, folks.

[cmpbl]

So his Dad is now supplying Steven drugs.😳

He’s not that tough.  He’s all mouth and no action.

My brother won't talk to me because I still talk to his ex. She has the kids. If I want to see the kids I need to maintain a good relationship with their mom. And anyway, I like her. Unlike my brother, she's never tried to extort me.

[iwasish]

Who is John? The father and brother are calling Steven, John. 

[Guest]

So...the father STOLE the pills from Justin and GAVE THEM to Steven?

[Azubah]

I seriously hate Dad.

[aliya]

Oh goodness dad, please don't try and make Justin be responsible for getting Steven off of drugs. Please. It's not his job.

[Wanda]

That’s been a constant. Think his name is John steven jr

[Ivylady]

Ah. The father gave them to Steven. That's worse. Forgive me, but the best thing for them would be their father's disappearance from their lives. He's toxic. 

[CrazyInAlabama]

Steven goes by John Steven Assanti sometimes, he actually had a social media account he post on at one time by John Steven, I think it's gone now, but I'm not even looking to see.   

So the father actually gave Justin's pain meds to Steven?   That not an enabler, that's a drug dealer.     I hope the DEA is watching this episode, because stealing controlled substances for another person is a huge no-no.

It's his middle name, to distinguish him from Steven Sr.

[navine]

I may hate Dad more than Justin

[MsVixen]

Dad gave Steven Justin's drugs?  And then he says he wants Justin to help Steven get off the drugs?  LORD HAVE MERCY!!!!

Ugh what's up with his lag?????

Steven used to be a bully?  He still is and his dad's not much better.  Those two deserve each other.  Justin needs to take the next flight back home to get away from their toxic ooze.

Unfortunately daddy still supports him and his store likely costs more in rent than it makes in sales.  I don't see Justin living alone, he's very childlike.  OMG Steven stole Justin's painkillers.   Why are they calling him John?  Wasn't doesn't dad give the fuck up and stop forcing Justin to speak or see his disgusting brother? 

[OoogleEyes]

Pops is SUCH an enabler 

[QuinnInND]

This whole family needs to be apart from one another. Dad needs to listen to Justin. He doesn't want anything to do with Steven. 

[7EasyPayments]

J - he had 60 Vicodin in a week

"Dad" - not 60, 30 !!

LOLOLOLOLOLOL 🤣

She says he’s a gentleman and a fantastic lover. She’s not hideous looking either. 

All I keep think about is that Sex In The City where Miranda’s overeater over ate her.

I’ll see myself out now.

[Concerned]

Justin needs to move away from dad as soon as possible.Justin has a clear vision of Steven being evil, but the dad is Steven’s enabler.

[Wanda]

Does Justin think the audience will read this as he’s NOT being forced to interact with Steven?

Knew he was going to do that......

Run Justin,, run.  He's the only sane one in the bunch.

So dad gave Steven some of Justin''s meds????

My ex used to steal mine......I went to get a refill and the pharmacist told me that my "husband came in earlier" to pick them up.   That was that........

[Stusan]

That Hobby Shop must really be making Justin money. He's been in a hotel this whole time...

[Armchair Critic]

No wonder Justin wants to be a hermit after living with the father and Steven

[cmpbl]

Justin please snitch on Steven.  Pretty please.

[ShortyMac]

Steven Sr jumps on Justin for everything. Christ. Steven is treated with kid gloves in comparison.

Agreed!  He should help Steven get off the drugs by giving him his?  When Justin just had surgery?  Gtfoh.  And what's wrong with Pantangele/Steven Sr that the favorite child is Steven Jr?

[Guest]

Dear Justin:

The next time you stab Steven, please aim towards a major artery.

Thank you.

[MsVixen]

Dad was a Pussy on Steven's episodes and he's being such a tough dude with Justin.  What's up with that?

Dumped 2 bros too....27 years ago. No problemo.

[suev33 3]

This is a very sickly enmeshed family.   Let's switch this show to Intervention....now the dad's giving steven pills???  They all need to go away to treatment, separately......wow....what did Steven do to Justin when they were younger .  They all need to separate
