Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

I'm assuming this isn't a thing in Canada?

My wife was horrified the first time she watched US cable TV with me and saw a commercial for a drug with the phrase "ask your doctor if (whatever the drug was) is right for you".

Her: "Um... if you have to suggest a drug to your doctor, maybe that's a good sign you shouldn't be seeing that doctor? And how is this legal for a drug company to have ads marketing drugs like that?"

Me: "Wait until you hear about the corruption that exists with pharmaceutical companies basically bribing doctors to prescribe their products."

I love the whole rapid fire:

I have found after experimenting with a bunch of different mechanics that the old standards often are what they are for ease of use. Once the novelty wears off, it is sort of meh.
This post is a bit confusing coming immediately after a post about Brazilian butt lifts.
