This is an excuse to not take your meds?
Wait. It’s about tantrums. Not having tantrums, or having tantrums, or something.
Tantrums are bad. Or possibly very good - it’s too early to be sure.
Orange! Orange soup is good!
Soylent Orange is made of Tangerines! Tangerines!
What commercial was this and what was the initial form of birth control mentioned? It almost sounds like a “don’t take Yasmin/Yaz brands of oral contraception” commercial, but it’d be pretty rare to actually need potassium monitoring on it due to the effects of the drospirenone. (It has nothing to do with STD testing. Also, I take a fair amount of an NSAID, Aleve, and have not required monitoring.)
I want to go to this party.
This is a party, right?
Partly.
Alphabits, I saw the same commercial. Your description is almost as inaccurate as you could make it; I think you’re just projecting your own roiling, seething mass of confused emotions onto it.
If I were going to criticize the same commercial, it would be because of the ridiculous convention of presenting a product description and advisory, including side effects, in the form of “dialogue” that doesn’t resemble anything real people ever actually say to one another.
TLDRIDKJKLOLFTW, I didn’t see any abusive behavior towards the pharmacist. However, that was a very entertaining rant. I think you should send the birth control company an outline of your proposed commercial. I think it would be somewhat memorable.
I kind of agree with you about the whopper freakout commercial. I’ve had a whopper, it manages to be more disgusting than a McDonald’s burger, which is pretty fucking nasty. I couldn’t imagine caring either way, that it was discontinued, let alone losing my shit.
Are you serious about the dianetics?
“She don’t use nothing
You buy at the store
She likes her hair to be real orange
She uses tangerines”
You know what else has potassium? Matches. You should probably check with your physician before using them as a dietary supplement though.
Can you read my mind?
Do you know what it is, that you do to me?
Normally, I wouldn’t support involvement with Dianetics, but if it really is going to help TLDR from dying young from a stroke brought on by apoplectic rage, then I think I’m all for it in this case.
I might also recommend TiVo…it seems that it might be a good idea for him to avoid commercials altogether.
Why do people respond to this idiot?
Wait, Gatorade has 127mg/l of potassium. Should I stop using it as birth control or what.
Well, why did you?
I saw the headline, clicked and read the rant.
THEN I checked the author.
Now, I see.
Football? Oh, of course – the pharmacist was being played by Bill Belichick. No wonder the OP went off the rails, down the embankment, through two and a half miles of cornfield, and just short of the schoolhouse steps.
Whiskers on kittens and raindrops on roses - bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens.
I get plenty of potassium, because these happen to be a few of my favourite things.
Soylent party mix is made of party people!!
