Okay, here's a bit of marketing that just flat out bugs the shipth out of me.  Every single ad for a prescription medication.  First off, no matter what the drug is, the ad is 10 seconds telling you how wonderful life will be if you take it, and the remaining 50 seconds telling you all the possible wicked side effects.  Now, I get that part, which is so lawyers like me can't claim my client didn't know that Boobitrol could cause sickle cell anemia.

But it's like, "Do you have trouble sleeping?  Then ask your doctor about Snoozalax.  Side effects could include nausea, vomiting, deep red ass rash, lymphoma, the hives, gout, pancreatitis, shingles, hypothermia and even death."  But by damn, you'll sleep better.

And why is it that the only time you can take any medication is when the affliction is "moderate to severe"?  If you have moderate to severe congestive heart failure, ask your doctor about aortagon.  Here's my favorite that they've been adding to all the side effects.  "Don't use aortagon if you are allergic to aortagon."  What the.....?

My favorites on those is a lot of times the side effects listed are those you are taking the drug for.  Having trouble sleeping take Druziness.  Side effects include nausea, vomiting, rash, insomnia and in some rare cases death.

Reviving the old marketing thread because someone is getting punched in the temple if I have to see that Allsnake Safe Drivers commercial with the little girl watching the jello mold somebody left on top of the car.  The only spot on TV more often is for The Mirror.  I don't complain too much because there's some mighty hot, young ass jumping around.

And there's some nice looking girls on there too.

I hate the one where the stupid bitch rolls up in the carpet or whatever and rolls on down the hill.

Hey Hamlin, love your PJ’s.  PJ’s?  27 times in the last hour.

Thank you ^^^

Oh and all the car maker Christmas commercials where they take a traditional Xmas song and change the words around to sell their stupid cars...comes off sounding more like a cheap jingle sung by some xanax’d sugared up quartet of millennials - during “the December of memories and snowflakes to remember special exclusive event sale”. But hurry. It’ll be over soon.
