Hans, I wouldn't recommend taking several different drugs at once, if at all. Even if you take what would be tiny doses individually, they may react in unexpected ways, including but not limited boosting the effect past the line of OD and hiding each others' effects to make you feel sober when you aren't. You could be and probably are just fine, but I don't know what you've taken or what your physiology is like well enough to tell for sure, and you probably don't either.

You've probably heard this advice as "don't mix uppers and downers" but it goes beyond those two categories, so please be careful.

One of my friends was prescribed medication for migraines... Its side effects included migraines

That's because of how pharmaceutical research works. You give a bunch of sick people medicine and ask them how they feel afterwards. The problem is that every human body and pathogen strain is different and might react differently to the medicine. Sometimes the medicine doesn't work or takes longer than expected to kick in, and the patient's symptoms worsen. At this point, it's hard to prove whether the medicine caused the symptoms or simply didn't affect the patient, so they have to write it as a possible side effect.

outlast the competition. if my 'robot' gets hit or even destroyed, argue that my robot's function wasn't impaired at all; the hit only damaged the armour.

once it's only my robot and one other left, use my free 5 to fall on it and crush it.

"Sorrow does have a purpose, yes, and that's to help work through the thoughts involved in loss. But it's not there so you can wallow in it forever, especially if it only causes you pain. Your wife... she must have left you the accordion and the lessons to help remember her by. To not have lost her fully. She lives in every note you play, every word you sing. Maybe not today, maybe today it feels too hard to play, but one day you'll be able to smile at the memories again. I promise."

Marcus suddenly looks morose himself.

"I've... lost some people important to me as well. Their deaths... they made me who I am today. Am I better than I'd be with them alive? I don't know. Am I happier? Hard to say. But the loss inspires me just as much as it brings me down. In fact, if I could show you, if I could borrow that instrument for a moment..."

If he allows it, now would be the time for the game's first musical number, though a rather bittersweet one:

"Marcus Celer. I think I do. But it doesn't have to be that way. Why mourn death when you can celebrate life? You must have countless joyous stories to share and put in words or tones, countless memories of what has already passed to history, countless lessons to pass on to future generations! Some say life is just pointless screaming into a void, but I say it's not a void for as long as one heart keeps filling it with the sound of a heart beating to the rhythm of hope. I guess what I'm trying to say is, life goes on, and it's our job to keep it going on."

((The goal here would be to convince him to let me borrow the accordion.))

You'd have to "be asleep" (i.e. not act) on a single night in the future.

Six cops, for one raccoon? Must have been a rainy day in [insert neighbourhood here].

Sadly, I don't know New York well enough to make this joke.
