The cure is worse than the problem!
Edited on Wed Aug-10-05 01:29 PM by glarius
Is it just my weird sense of humour, or do others think most of the commercials for over the counter remedies are rather hilarious these days....I'm referring to all the warnings that go along with the commercials...."Get our wonderful cure all pill to make your life worth living....but we must warn you that it may cause headaches, upset stomach, diarrhea, constipation, heart palpitations, chest pain, dizziness, light-headedness, back ache etc...".....This sure wouldn't tempt me to buy the stuff!....It's almost like they are purposely making a joke out of their commercials!

P.S...I suppose it is because of all the law suits, but it is hilarious, I think.

1. I know. The side effects are usually scarier than
whatever it is you have. Nose bleeds, blood clots, migraines.... Come on!
