Pfizer Hears a Who!

More than 14,000 new drug names were filed
last year at the US Patent and Trademark
Office, all of them wanting to light us up.

“Plant a new Truffula. Treat it with care.
Give it clean water. And feed it fresh air.
Grow a forest. Protect it from axes that hack.
Then the Lorax and all of his friends may come back.”

from The Lorax by Dr. Seuss

Don’t miss tomorrow’s comic “Part 6: Actual Photograph of a Possible Alien”
in which I single-handedly solve the mystery of alien life on earth. It exists!

    I sure as shit wouldn’t, Sera. I have a phobia of ingesting nonsense that rhymes, and I don’t do pills or sepositories or any of that shit unles I’m truly in pain, and the booze stopped working.

    I am sure they do. Damn brainwashers.

  3. Eidur Says:

    Hmmmm… Pills… I love’em!

  4. dandellion Kimban Says:

    Any favourite letters?
    Or just colors matter?

  5. Seraphine Khorana Says:

    Dandellion. Colors matter, definitely. Easier to fix colors than the television.
    Eidur. So did Heath Ledger, rumor is.
    R.T. Please tell me about your suppositories. Any that make you squirm?

  6. Romeika Says:

    Spending milliions on such a superficial thing…oh well. And I had no idea about the effect each letter has on the “consumer”.

  7. October Hush Says:

    Take a Lorax and watch all your worries disappear!

  8. R.T. Says:

    Never used them actually… I shy away from such things… I’ll give in on oral pills like… Uhm… Handfulls of vicodin, but suppositories I’ve managed to avoid completely thus far.

    when you think things are bad, when you feel sour and blue, when you start to get mad, you should do what I do..

    like imagining ways they could be left all alone in some punkerish space
    with a rusty old coat hanger in a sensitive place.

    Hey, the ideal job. Give me 50,000 and I’ll take a year and come up with a name. Maybe I can have some free samples of those with L, R. and S too!

    Now I understand why I always become so calm reading your stories! My tobacco brand is “Samson” (yes I smoke :(), my beer brand is “Brand” (not kidding), so I’m always very calm, except the time you made PR for a healthy life :)

    I love that medicine has gone so far.
