Why did she turn into Kermit?

Because there's s muppet deep down inside each of us controlling our every movement and word. Geez, it's like they never taught you basic biology in middle school.

Turn your head to one side, looking to your right (or left) in line with your shoulder, then take the pill as you normally would while you stay in that position. It will slide down much more easily than if you were facing forward.

My trick is to tap my upper and lower teeth together to poorly simulate chewing (avoiding the pill, of course) and then I'd just naturally feel the urge to swallow.

Crushed up in jam is how I took paracetamol when a kid - if we'd run out of Dispirin. Couldn't and wouldn't swallow pills until I was prescribed some (quite large) antibiotics in my 20s. To take those, it was put it in my mouth and keep drinking water with my head back until it went down. It took quite a lot of water! These days I can take them with less water, usually just a sip.
