Apparently I'm sick...

I just saw an add today.
One of those drug adds that inform you that you're very sick if some symptoms fit you, like:

"Do the following symptoms fit you!? Then you're deadly sick and need to buy (some item¹)which will cure you, after only 7 months of constant pill usage!"

They always kind of make me laugh, because it's always something like:
"Do you wake up tired in the morning?" to which my first thought would be "Oh my God! I have that! That's me! Quick write this down, I need to buy this... I could quite possibly die!"
And it's always like that isn't it?
I mean, half the time, you don't even know what the add is about. It's just a bunch of people on a beach. Running around in the sun, dog playin in the water, and you sitting there thinking:

"Arh man, I want some of that! What desease is that? It comes with a hot chick, a six pack and everything!"

And then it turns out to be some sort of skin cancer or Viagra commercial... First off, why would you even try to sell skin cancer... And secondly, who at 25, needs viagra?
It's like all those spam mails you (me anyway) get everyday. I must get like a million mails from people from africa and various other places I've never visited, nor do I ever intend to... Honestly, who are these people, and why do they think I need so much viagra!?

Speaking of thinking (or lack there of) I saw this bloke on the street today. Some homeless guy walked up to him, and the guy didn't even look at him. Just told him to get a job, pushed him aside, and walked on...Now hang on just a second. The guy was homeless. Homeless! He's wearing his flipping underwear on top of his pants. Now it might just be me, but I'm thinking he might have some job difficulties here. Like the interview part might present some kind of problem. I mean, I can't be certain, but I'm pretty sure McDonalds has an "Underwear goes inside your pants" policy. I know they don't enforce it all that well, but I'm sure it's there somewhere in the books.
It's like when we all see them and think "I'm not gonna give him money, he's just gonna waste it on booze"...
He lives in a box! Of course he's gonna waste it on booze. Wouldn't you!? I mean, how can his life get any worse than this?... Besides, what are you gonna spend it on!?... That's right. Booze!
It's not like he can spend it wisely even if he wanted to. He cant just save it all in a tin jar, and go buy a stereo, a dog or some property... He lives in a God damn box!
Sometimes, a little brain activity goes a long way... But I think we covered that already. It's something we haven't seemed to evolve yet...I sometimes wonder if it actually hurts other people to think...
Or why it is they choose not to...

Cheers!
