Boycott and Fuck any commercial that promotes shitass customer behavior

Ummm…don’t you mean “of?”

:stuck_out_tongue:

Much safer to say “exhibiting”.

The cat would like to make known its displeasure with this scheme. For more information, please consult the bedspread.

Wow, the OP is really reaching to draw these conclusions about the commercial. The way I see it, the two friends are at the pharmacy picking up woman A’s prescription. As the pharmacist is counseling woman A about her meds, woman B comments that she doesn’t have to take any blood tests for her BC bills.

Woman A thinks about it for awhile, then hands (doesn’t throw, doesn’t fling, doesn’t shove) the bag back to the pharmacist before she pays for it. Actually, I think she even smiles at him when she does it. In no way did I interpret this as “shitass customer behavior.” Unless, of course, changing your mind about buying something is terrible behavior.

If the commercial is promoting anything other than their own product, it is that you don’t have to take a medication just because your doctor tells you to. You can decide that you don’t agree with the prescripton and look into getting a different one. Seeing as how she had the script for the first BC pill, I’m guessing she could make a simple call to her doctor to see about getting a different one. It’s not like she’d have to go for a whole new exam for her doc to change the script.

Weak rant, I give it a 0 out of 10.

Dude, I TOTALLY know what you mean!

Just wait’ll the OP hears the contraceptive’s patent has been bought by Squibb.

There was no problem getting it all through security, but I did not bring it out and play with it on the plane as planned.

Bloody hell. I asked for ionized potassium at the store, but when I got home, I noticed they’re given me potassified iron instead. Fuckbubbly shitwanking cockstaincunts! Or something.

No, if it were Ukrainian, it would be TLDRIDKJKLOLFTWSKI.

Two potassium atoms were walking down the street. One turns to the other and says, “I lost an electron!”. The second potassium says, “Are you sure?”. “I’m positive!” replies the first.

Hey, at least it wasn’t ionized plutonium. That stuff will put hair on your chest. And fingers on your elbows. And possibly a third eye someplace.

That cracked me up.

Hahaha! You funny fucker.

But he’s right folks, we shouldn’t be responding to **Mr. Alphabets soup’s ** attempts at innane ranting.

QED is actually a rather silly fellow once you get to know him.

Quite silly, indeed.

Sometimes it’s a matter of seeing the principle beyond the poster.

Was there one? I had literally no idea.

You know, if you can get past the bile and the profanity of the OP, he actually has a very good point. If a business shows people mistreating its employees or low level employees of other businesses, why should I do business with them? I first saw this thread right after I saw a commercial for a nearby casino in which a young woman screams at an unsuspecting deli clerk, and I agreed with the OP. Because of that ad, I have no desire to go there, even though I rather like casinos.

A lot of Dopers have worked low-level customer service jobs. I suspect even more Pit fiends have read the threads written by them. Dopers, as a whole, are a pretty decent bunch of people. Why would any of us want to do business with a company which shows people mistreating clerks? If nothing else, when people are yelled at and mistreated by customers and management doesn’t back them up, they tend to get grouchy and disillusioned. I know. I’ve been there and left because of it.

So why not boycott businesses whose ads show people mistreating clerks?

Oo, nice one. :slight_smile:

OK, now I’m confused. I thought they only allowed you to change your user name for a good reason. For example, Libertarian’s change to Liberal may not have been thought important, but it represented a philosophical point for him. Other good reasons might be if you picked a stupid name before realizing that you wanted to discuss more weighty measures and be taken seriously, or if your name was too similar to someone else’s.

There is no way you can convince me that he did it because his new name has some special meaning, and his new name wasn’t similar to anyone else that I know. I would say that he is just trying to escape his inane posting history, but here he goes doing the same stupid shit again. So, why did the powers that be allow it?

Banana’s have to have blood tests before they have ritualistic anal gangbangy sex?
What a bunch of sluts.
