I love those drug commercials! I think they're creepy, to advertise 
prescription drugs like that (and I think I would get very annoyed if I were 
a doctor and people came into my office asking for miracle drugs they heard 
about on the tee-vee), especially since it just shows how much healing people 
has become a business that they're advertising prescription drugs on TV.

There's constantly small white print on the screen and they do their damndest 
to make their drugs look romantic and wonderful, with this cheery voice-over 
person and slow-mos of people dancing or "living" in whatever they do, thanks 
to Miracle Drug. I think it'd be funny if instead of those 
trying-to-be-respectful-about-it ads, they advertised Viagra saying: "Go see 
your doctor today and get back in the sack, with Viagra!"
