I always get a kick out of the side affect warnings that go something like:

Drugs Goal: Attack the symptoms of the flue

Side affects: May cause nausea, vomiting, aching, and fever.

Like, um.. Perhaps I will just stick with riding out the flu instead of chancing it with this medication that may just double the symptoms of the flu?

And also, how about those commercials where, say, some idiot is trying to get earwax out of his ear with a toilet plunger.. Then you see this little text "do not attempt".. I mean, seriously, even if there was a herd of maggots in my ear, I wouldn't use a plunger..

You're so right, Jafo. Or the heartburn medicines whose side effects include stomach pain, constipation or diareah, bloating, gas, and headache.

Huh? You wanna play that again. Not only the same symptoms I had with the heartburn, but they're throwing in a headache for good measaure.

The best have to be the ads for erectile disfunction---which, if we're to believe the commercials, is suffered by every member of the NFL. Go figure.

But there's one part of the disclaimer: In rare instances of an erection lasting four hours or more, seek...... At that point I always jump in with....a woman with a big smile.

Is there a man in America who would see that as an unwanted side effect? I think not.

Every time I hear that warning, I always think, yeah, run to the hospital, and find a nurse..

Hey this gives me an idea..
My mother in law is an unwanted side effect of marriage.

Back in the vaudville days they had a definition of mixed emotions that went:

Watching your mother in law drive your new caddy off a cliff.
