Facebook Faux Paus

As we all know, Walgreen’s is, of course, proof that the Anti-Christ is alive and currently consolidating power on earth. This is being done by using Walgreen’s to subjugate everyone to the will of the Evil One by convincing the world that Walgreen’s cares ONLY ABOUT THEM, not profits or obscene amounts of power! This supposition (or perhaps in Walgreen’s case this suppository) is of course a moral deception (commonly known as a “lie”) designed to allow Walgreen’s (henceforth referred to here as The Minions of the Evil One) to be able to control the thoughts of all physicians, pharmacists, patients, press, Presidents currently attempting health care reform, people in general, polls effecting and affecting opinions, the public and possibly all others who claim existential reality of any kind and convince them that stores serving The Minions of the Evil One are GOOD, and everyone else in the practice of pharmacy is BAD.

This is of course total bullshit, as we know that The Minions of the Evil One are in fact the personification of postcedent, puss drooling evil incarnate (ok, I will stop with all of the “P” alliterations). Walgreen’s…err, that’s to say The Minions of the Evil One, are the personification of everything that is wrong with the practice of pharmacy, medicine and, for that matter, life in general in the United States. They cannot tolerate any legitimate disagreement, differing position, policy or pricing diversity, nor competition (or competitor for that matter) and feel the need to destroy everyone that is not them. My ideal practice of pharmacy is in the local independent pharmacy where the pharmacist in charge actually knows the names of his or her patients, knows what they need and expect, and is a part of the life of the community that they practice in and are a part of.

The Minions of the Evil One are what those wise sages Simon and Garfunkel referred to as “The Big Bright Green Pleasure Machine”, except that there is no pleasure in having anything to do with them, either as a pharmacist, a staff member or a patient, they are not bright, just big, and they are a heartless, human-less, humorless, horrifyingly amoral glimpse of the future if we allow them to continue to get away with all that they do that makes everyone who has anything to do with them turn green (not with envy, but with nausea). They are monitoring this site because the very thought of anyone dissenting from their party line scares them into literally whimpering, peeing on the floor and running for Guido and Rocko Soprano to come beat the crap out of anyone who dares say anything against The Minions of the Evil One.

Want to improve health care and the moral health of the nation? Make Walgreens…oops, I did it again – The Minions of the Evil One – follow the same rules, both in letter and spirit, that every independent Mom and Pop community pharmacy must follow. That begins with not allowing them to engage in yet another terrorist round of intimidation by doing what they did by “monitoring” your site. That is why your site, and others similar to it such as TAP, are so important. Without them, there will be no voice to call The Minions of the Evil One, and the Assistant Minions of the Evil One with initials such as RA, CVS, etc. to account and to follow, if not the law, at least basic decency, ethics and morality. It will probably never happen, as they are, after all, The Minions of the Evil One Pharmacy Chain, but the truth must be proclaimed. Please keep doing so here and stay as angriest as you can, whether The Minions of the Evil One monitor it, like it, tolerate it or not. Perhaps somewhere in the corporate offices of The Minions of the Evil One Pharmacy Chain or the offices of the Assistant The Minions of the Evil One, there are still a few human beings drawing a salary over there who still care about something other than profiting obscenely and destroying anyone who dares speaks against The Minions of the Evil One….or their boss.

Just for the record, I use Walgreens for my medication. Each month they are friendly, fast, and their prices are competitive. Just as I don’t judge people by their race, I don’t judge a pharmacy by their chain.

Doesn’t apply to a facebook post at all — but a good point nonetheless.

Cheers, now fb fan ;)

I work at Rite Aid and I specifically remember a patient coming to us because they could get a 3 months supply of a medication for $15.99 and walgreen’s was charging $53 for a month supply. How’s that for customer serviceXD

Maybe this dumbass called for a cash price, since Oprah and the news say rx shopping is the new black, they weren’t on file, and you gave them their (on file) co-pay. Prices may vary between pharmacies, but you should know that such a vast difference is inaccurate.
