I Wonder.....

Who makes up all those nonsense names for drugs advertised on TV? They all seem to be a conglomerate of letters that make no sense. And, then they pronounce the name that usually doesn't sound anything like the spelling...... (At least the way I was taught 70+ years ago)

And the ads end with a legal disclaimer listing all the possible side effects finishing with “and this may kill you…”

It's called Alex and it doesn't listen at all! :roflblack:

You are right on the money when discussing side effects. IMO, most of the time, I would rather have the illness than the side effects of the cure. :bowdown:
