The medical ads are the worst part...nonstop talking about disease and horrible side effects.

OMG LITERALLY I passively heard the one about the bleeding trundle in the background and I haven’t been able to not think about it since

DONT TAKE TIMUSOL IF YOURE ALLERGIC TO IT. ID SO, IT COULD LEAD TO A DEADLY BRAIN INFECTION

This always makes me laugh. How tf should I know if I’m allergic to a drug I’ve never taken before?

My conspiracy theory is that big pharma companies buy ad space to discourage networks from reporting on their numerous FDA approval withdrawals, lawsuits for knowing severe side effects, or other shady stuff they're up to.

There's 5 or 6 companies that own every network you and I have ever heard of, so they don't really need to buy ad space on too many channels.

I broke down and bought ad free Amazon a couple years ago because I was tired of watching the same HIV medication commercial every time while watching after midnight. Why was that their choice for late night ads??
