Prescription drug advertisement

I don’t understand why prescription drug is allowed to be advertised on TV or why anyone would think of trying one of the medicines after listening to the laundry list of warnings of possible side effects. This is a refreshing change:

Do you have feelings of inadequacy? Do you suffer from shyness? Do you sometimes wish you were more assertive? Do you sometimes feel stressed?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist about Cabernet Sauvignon!

Cabernet Sauvignon is a safe, natural way to feel better and more confident. It can help ease you out of your shyness and let you tell the world that you’re ready and willing to do just about anything.

You will notice the benefits of Cabernet Sauvignon almost immediately and, with a regimen of regular doses, you’ll overcome obstacles that prevent you from living the life you want.

Side effects may include: Dizziness, nausea, vomiting, incarceration, delusions of grandeur, table dancing, headache, dehydration, dry mouth, a desire to sing Karaoke, and play Poker and Truth Or Dare.

Warnings: The consumption of Cabernet Sauvignon may make you think you are whispering when you are not.

The consumption of Cabernet Sauvignon may cause you to tell your friends over and over again that you love them.

The consumption of Cabernet Sauvignon may cause you to think you can sing.

The consumption of Cabernet Sauvignon may create the illusion that you are tougher, smarter, faster and better looking than most people.

Please feel free to share this important medical information!

Charging without battery

The place where I work decided to provide company-paid cell phones to the “suits” upstairs. After negotiating a deal with a cell phone company, we arranged for the phones to be sent to the homes of various VIPs.

The day after delivery, I received a call from a partner screaming about how his cell phone didn’t work. He said he charged it overnight just like the sheet said, but in the morning, it wouldn’t power up.

I asked exactly what he did with the phone when he got it.

“I took it out, plugged the charger into the wall and into the phone.”

“Did you put the battery in the phone?”

“Not the extra one.”

“Sir, the phone only came with one battery.”

“Oh, I think I figured out what’s wrong with it!”
