I have this game I play with advertised medications and the like. If the litany of possible side effects and warnings is longer than the rest of the commercial, I "win".

Prescription drug commercials rank as some of the lowest forms of advertising out there. I think in the so-called developed world, they're only legal in the U.S. and New Zealand, and the latter's medical system isn't a private-sector bureaucratic clusterfuck.

Isn't that the one for people who are already terminal? It's such a specific ad because they've got like a 3 month window to reach their audience.

These are the worst! I had like a 10% chance of having lung cancer last year when these were in their heaviest rotation and they made me so angry.

If you're ordering food from somewhere you aren't ordering salads so nothing about that commercial makes sense. Also the salads they show at the end of the commercial don't look healthy at all.

Spinach is one of the healthiest foods you can eat, whereas iceberg lettuce is water and fiber. Also, fresh doesn't mean a whole lot either if it had been frozen.

i mean for taste, fresh spinach is better, but i realized after posting that that there's a zero percent chance it's fresh from a garden so it was a dumb thing to add

i blame it on being sick

I wish either Chris Farley were still alive so we could have the "fat" Colonel who always falls over things for some reason.

Or John Candy Colonel and they could both fight it out in an arena and get too winded to fight each other.

You jest, but unless I'm mistaken I do believe that's how cell providers and ISPs get away with claiming "unlimited" data when there's a cap.

The fine print says something about how "unlimited" refers to it not being throttles or restricted. That's why it's "unlimited to 20 GB" because after that it is limited, in this limited meaning throttles to painfully slow speeds.
