Meds, Bathtubs and Ceiling Fans

I don't think I'm alone in thinking those medication commercials on TV are freaking crazy. You should time how long it takes for them to speed-list all the warnings of the medication they are advertising. The side effects sound worse than the benefit of taking the med. Of course, if you don't mind diarrhea, night sweats, headaches or an erection lasting longer than 4 hours to take a drug for erectile dysfunction, you're all set. I especially like the commercials that show people smiling, blue skies, life-is-good-type stuff while listing all the side effects. I guess you are supposed to be so distracted watching the happy naked couple sitting in bathtubs on the hill overlooking the ocean that you don't hear the list of horrible side effects. Yes! If you take this drug you too can get naked, sit in separate bathtubs with no water, smile, hold hands and look at the sunset! Am I the only one who thinks that particular commercial is ridiculous? What would happen if required warnings were listed for every product we buy? What about warnings for cleaning products listed while the happy housewife Swiffers away dust on the ceiling fan? Something like, 'consumers are advised that while using the Swiffer all-in-one cleaning brush, eye protection should be worn along with gloves and a face mask. Children, elderly persons and pets should leave the area while the brush is in use. Consumers are cautioned that the ceiling fan should be turned off during the cleaning process. Occasional loss of fingertips and hair extensions have been reported.' Gee, I'm sure glad I don't have a ceiling fan!
