....... No?

Donnageddon · 03-13-2009, 04:08 AM

..... yes?

montsnmags · 03-13-2009, 06:38 AM

Just say "maybe" to drugs?

Why is Bezos being such a Dumas?

GeoffC · 03-13-2009, 09:54 AM

Can I just take a placebo?

montsnmags · 03-13-2009, 09:58 AM

Sure, would you like the blue Placebo(TM) or the red Placebo(TM)?

GeoffC · 03-13-2009, 10:16 AM

If I may, I will take the one without the TM ... my last experience with that was not as it was described on the label ....

And your question is?

GeoffC · 03-13-2009, 11:27 AM

Is the one without TM available ?

frabjous · 03-13-2009, 12:24 PM

Aren't the ones without the TM just defective versions of the ones with the TM sold through the black market?

GeoffC · 03-13-2009, 12:37 PM

Not quite, the ones without the TM make one go all 'gooey', without the hangover that Marc adds to his formulations ....

Isn't that not questionable?

One would certainly think so, yes? Wouldn't I be more inclined to differentiate my product by not including a negative side effect other products historically incorporated (like the "hangover")? Does one not think that this is, perhaps, why we have a "hangunder" instead? Is Geoff, perhaps, eating something that could only semantically be called a "pill", but is, actually, a Tic Tac? Is Geoff getting high, or low, on candy? Geoff, if so, would you like me to prescribe a pill to combat those effects?

Are you suggesting it is better to prescribe a placebo since the placebo effect is preferable to any side effects of the actual pharmaceutical?

WDE.

What makes you think a "hangunder" is an unpleasant effect? What makes you assume that the Placebo(TM) is preferable to anything? What makes you think you have a choice, regardless of your...choice? Perhaps Montsnmags Pharmaceuticals isn't just a monopoly; it's also stealth autocracy? Is your medicine in everything you consume? Is the somatosed Brave New World here? Can I get you a drink?
