Is There A Pill They Could Prescribe To Make Me Hate The Government
Edited on Thu Jun-02-05 08:13 AM by DistressedAmerican
any less than I do. Maybe is is me that is sick and not these repug assholes!

I find Bushco hating takes up way too much of my time and certainly breeds negativity.

Of course until I can get the hell out of here, I will be constantly reminded!

What the fuck is a pissed off liberal to do in this day and age?

1. Firstly, you mean prescribe, not subscribe.
Secondly, apparently they're trying to develop a pill that makes you more trusting. Pretty sure I saw a post about it here on DU somewhere.

2. I Could Use A Pill For Typos As Well.

That was what got me thinking. It is a post about Oxytocin nasal spary. They stuff is powerful. It is the hormone that women produce immediately after childbirth. It produces a powerful calming effect.

I heard a story on NPR once by a lady that had given birth on 9/11 and was a bit freaked because all around here folks were experiencing traums while she was calm and content! Now that is some powerful shit!

5. Literal Brain Scramling Does Not Appeal. Although A Widespread
program of lobotomies would explain the Republican Base!

Hormone Spray Is Found To Bolster Trust in Others - WP


Oh, this is just great. Now we can be truly at ease with our overlords...

<snip>
Scientists have found the chemical equivalent of the perfect sales pitch: a hormone that makes us more trusting than we normally are.

Volunteers in a study were told they were participating in a decision-making experiment. Those who inhaled the hormone, which occurs naturally in the brain, were more likely to entrust others with large sums of money than were volunteers who inhaled no hormone.

7. Sure Seems Unethical For Advertisers To Drug Us To Buy Their
