We’re all in agreement…
Posted by The *Angriest* Pharmacist as Drug Companies, Me being a dick, Stupid People
So, we’re all in agreement that drug companies should not be allowed to advertise directly to the consumer…right? Okay. Good. Great. Grand.
Ever see the Valtrex commercial? Sure you have, but have you ever really watched that fucking thing? It’s got a decent looking brunette standing with some guy. She announces that she has it, and he doesn’t — because they are careful and take Valtrex. Blah. Then the ‘voice’ goes on to say, “Did you know that you can contract the herpes virus from your partner even though they have no physical symptoms?”
70% of people say they contracted genital herpes when their partner had no sign of breakout.
Fair enough - I mean, 98% of statistics are made up on the spot. But, let’s hypothesize that this one is accurate. That means:
30% of you herpes-havin’ motherfuckers got it when your fuckbuddy had a visible outbreak that you saw before doing the hibbity-dibbity.
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
You deserve herpes if you saw it before doing the deed and still went to town. That’s gross. That’s worse than earning your redwings…

Never, ever, underestimate the power of being horny. Never. Especially being horny and young AND dumb.
Oh, TAP, the public loves these spots! they strongly suggests to them that they can bug their doctors for the drugs with impunity. Controlled substances, too (Lunesta, Ambien-CR)!!! The commercials just about make these things OTC. Who needs the doctor or the pharmacist if it’s on TV?
Did you know that in the UK, it’s illegal for drug companies to market directly to consumers? There’s no damn purple pill commercials, nothing liek that at all. Of course, that means the drug reps that show up at your consultation window are armed to the teeth with free samples and shit.
Hahaha! I am so glad you pointed that out. Never looked that far into it
Yeah, I HATE drug ads and commercials. The worst are the “natural male enhancement” infomercials.
O.K., I’m naive. What is “earning your Redwings”?
Rather than type such filth, check this NSFW link: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=redwings
[...] said for a long ass time that direct-to-consumer advertising needs to be made illegal. The average American cannot be expected to comprehend the many factors that go into prescribing. [...]
