That is fucking halarious.. ROFLMAO. Has anyone seen "Falling down" Where this guy has a really bad day and flips and goes into fast food joint and wants breakfast and it is like 1 minute before breakfast ends and they refuse him so he pulls out a shot gun and makes them give him breakfast then he gets a sorry ass sandwich and then complains about the pic and the sandwhich. I is really quite funny.
As for the false advertizing I am getting made at chip makers and asprin and other over the counter medicine like Tylenol PM. Half the package is air. I got some prenatal vitimans with this huge honken bottle and opened it and pulled out half a bottle of cotton. ONly have the bottle had pills in it!! It is waste of plastic and it is Misleading you feel like you are getting the better deal with the bigger bottle.

This is silly. The burgers/sandwiches/whatever for ads are constructed meticulously so that all the ingredients are showing. In order to make the sandwiches look that good in the restaurant they'd have to take 20 minutes to prepare each one. Plus once you get it home it's been smushed around in the bag and the cheese has melted and all that. Most of them didn't look that different anyways.
Warrior, I agree with you about the chips. I get a bag of Lay's from the vending machine, and they cost 90 cents, and there's like 4 chips in there!

I guess they could skip the cotton and you could just try to guess how much pulverized pill dust to pour in your mouth. As long as they tell you how many pills are in the bottle I don't see the problem.

Ok you have a bottle of prenatal pills that is very small but cost 20 bucks you think to yourself I need to find a better deal. You see that same bottle twice as big you think you are getting a deal without thinking.
If it is not a big deal to read the 180 pills.Why bother putting it in a bottle twice its size? Because most of us don't read how many per bottle we look for the biggest bottle for the lowest prize.

His point was that if the cotton weren't there the pills would get broken and crushed.

Misleading you feel like you are getting the better deal with the bigger bottle. Wow, how unfair. They should pass a law saying you have to include a label saying how much is in the packaging...

they do, which i'm sure is a Federal Regulations...all my vitamins (and i take plenty) also give an example of the size of the pill too.

Screw you, racist pig.
Guerilla--Tom Friedman is a good journalist, I say.
if they want truth in advertising, how about showing a commercial where almost all the people in the restaurant are a bunch of fat pigs instead of svelt lean happy people. that would be reality.
this spring i have noticed that the fat index wnet up over this winter a lot. almost every third person i see is a bloated pig now.

This "racist nation" I live in does not make me a racist, but great job displaying your reasoning skills.
I mean, you're from Latin America, right? Therefore you must have worked or are working by driving a taco truck or working in the cocaine trade, am I right?
:rolleyes:

So you'll screw men if they're straight, but not if they're gay?
Hmm.

No idiot, where is your brain?, he was referring as working here in your country, so its about working here in the US... And there wasn't any threat involved, but your tiny brain wouldn't notice that...
As for cocaine, there wouldn't be any, if you guys weren't snorting it from every hole you have, even your ass... But you are a junkie.......
