Stupid Radio Ads

Posted by GruntDoc on 5th June 2008

Today, on the way home, I was listening to the radio, absentmindedly listening to the latest “Magic Pill” ad, when this snapped me out of my reverie:

“(Magic Pill) is not a medication, so be sure to consult your doctor before taking it”.

That’s got to be the dumbest thing I’ve heard all year, and I listened to some of the presidential primary debates. Really? It’s not a medicine, something a doctor should know about, it’s a non-medicine, so consult a physician (expert in medicine and medicines) before you take their idiotic magic pill.

Be sure and ask your doc about synthetic oils and pleated air filters while you’re at it.

Geez.

There’s a doc walking around with a “vote for Reagan” lapel pin.

Going back to work after a vacation really seems to defeat the purpose of the vacation.
