Advantages: tastes of chocolate, they work Disadvantages: could appeal to children, abuse
Laxative abuse has been a part of my life for around three years now. It first started when I read about the effects of the product in a certain celebrity's autobiography, and from that moment I knew it was something I wanted to try. So I did. And I loved the effects. Now I say 'loved', but perhaps that word is too strong. It became an addiction, the central point of abuse within my eating disorder. I couldn't live without them...

Deus Ex is set in 2052 though this year is not revealed in the game it is revealed in the sequel.

The Grey Death, an infectious disease, is slowly wiping out the population and there is a limited supply of the vaccine. This limited supply means only those deemed to be of use are receiving it i.e. government personnel, scientists, the influential rich etc. As you may have guessed, the people on the ground are far from happy about this, rioting has become commonplace and terrorists are on their side. UNATCO exists to enforce peace.
