lol...nice sancho!
i realized tonight that one of my biggest pet peeves is pharmacutical companies advertising on tv, especially before their products have been approved for use. all you get is: "if you think fledexherine (or whatever *insert unpronouncable name here*) might be right for you, call your doctor", or worse yet they give you some random images and then a name of a product. no information to be had.
i dont know though if that is worse than the ones where they say "blah blah may not be right for everyone. may cause skin rash, heart attacks, gout, ulcers, bleeding gums, excessive gas, the plague, etc..do not use if currently alive or breathing."
drug companies.... :rage:
ahhh. okay....rant over, i think.

FEMALE SCIENTIST: Homer, you really have no desire to eat any of the food in front of you?
HOMER: Food? What food?? Agh, I'm blind!
MALE SCIENTIST: Who's going to buy a drug that causes blindness?
FEMALE SCIENTIST: Ah..we'll let marketing handle that.

Hey Sancho, Milkbones aren't too bad either......
-
Heh heh. I’ll pass on the Milkbones. These were these little sandwich cookie looking thingys flavored with carob. We both liked ‘em.

After a conversation about how people at work will eat anything that is free somebody brought in those sandwich cookies into work to see who would eat them. She left the wrapper on so people knew what they were getting into, they were gone within the week.
I took a class in greek Mythology a while back. We had to read this thing about how the gods came into being, does anybody know who wrote this? It was some greek.....

Hey Papaya, I think our fellow workers are cut from the same cloth. Someone has a birthday at least once a week where I work so we’ll get one of those slab cakes with a kooky saying on it. They last about 30 seconds. I’ve actually witnessed people scraping the crumbs and extra frosting up off of the waxed paper with their little plastic forks.

isnt it a bit odd that a trip to europe would reinforce ones mental stereotypes rather than completely change them??? dont people usually come back saying its exactly the opposite of what i expected?

well you're in germany... ;)
just joking but where i am it's normal to see german tourists and they are recognisable from considerable distance due to their charateristic traits...:D

One of my sons has epilepsy and the drugs prescribed for him had some real 'good' side effects - the worst one though was a drug called 'Gabapentin' and one of the side effects was 'sudden death!'
-
OMG...that's the worst one yet, miranda. i thought the "uncontrollable, oily anal discharge was bad "but your's wins, hands down.

(D'oh poor evulik, that must be irritating as hell!!!)
Often when I visit forums, even this one, I wish I was a dictator that could fix the rules...then I'd forbid the use of the word 'boyfriend' (or even girlfriend) or any similar concept. (the effect these words have on me: :bawling:)
(Don't mind me, I'm costantly trying to spoil everybody else's fun. Maybe one day I'll grow up...).
-
evulik, that happened to a friend of mine; she lost creative stuff she'd written and all...after that, i recommend not only backing stuff up, but e-mailing yourself word docs, and whatever else, so that if nothing else, yahoo/hotmail/etc. else can store it for you. i've even done that with a phone number or two, since with my cell phone, i rarely memorize them anymore.

It's raining here like in Autumn. It's so strange, it doesn't usually rain in summer.
