Say you've made an appointment with your local spa for a bit or R&R. But being the antsy work-a-holic you are, you keep canceling or pushing back your spa date. To counter this, the spa could send out a man to stalk you, shoot you with a curare dart, and drag you back to the spa.
Since curare kills
by stoping respiration, the spa employees would just have to repeatedly compress your chest as they pull your limp form into a mud bath, onto a massage bed, or in for a cold compress and an exfoliation.

Rather than curare, how about tequilla? |
|
|
Curare is a bit extreme, but yeah, I could see this working with a more mundane tranquilizer. |
|
|
I want curare, or nothing. |
|
|
...you know what, I get the feeling I'm going to get nothing. |
|
|
"Give me curare and/or give me death"? |
|
|
If you consider Michelangelo's birthday a holiday then that might already exist. (Honestly though, I too will settle for tequila). |
|
|
I'll have curare and a spa or tequila and a bar. |
