Our Crap is the Best Crap

I like that there's like a thousand different companies that claim they have the best treatment for acne. It shows that, really, we either have absolutely no idea what the best way to cure acne is, there are way too many different ways to do it, or it's different for everyone in the world. They all seem equally likely, and probably aren't mutually exclusive. But apparently, if you just tell people "No no no, THIS is the real bird feces you have to spread all over your face. WE'RE the only ones who have got it all figured out." There's probably one company that actually HAS got it all figured out, but everyone just makes up their statistics anyway, so nobody's ever going to figure out the difference.

It's the same sort of crap they do with weight loss "supplements" and diet pills. Every single one of the advertisements for weight loss "miracle cures" claim that while every other horrible scam won't help you at all, THIS horrible scam will finally help you lose weight without having to actually do any work. The Americna Dream, basically. Exercise is for squares.

And like I've said before, I don't even know why they advertise medicine on TV in the first place, especially prescription meds. No one actually cares about those commercials. Except Viagra. Everyone loves Viagra.
