Once you pay for these pills you’ll be in a lot more pain.

Now wake up and take your sleeping pill.

My Dad was a pharmacist. He often added little instructions to customers. Like “Make sure to take these with food.” or “Sit down for ten minutes after you take them.”

Ok! Well if you need more pain then these are the pills for you!

You ARE a pain … so these pills are designed just for you.

My niece’s ex- often played in charity hockey tournaments “for veterans’ suicide.” I thought it would be better to play against veterans’ suicide.

and he’s a pain…

Reminds me of my first reaction after seeing a sign for the Pain Center. I thought, “Oooh, I wonder what kind they offer.” I am clearly not a well person. ;—}

There’s Dr. Payne, the dentist. And I know a chiropractor with a sign outside that says just, “Low Back Pain.” No incentive to visit either one!

He must be married…..

My recently deceased wife and I used to “joke” about the listing of side effects in commercials and say why take the drug when we already have the side effects, we needed a drug to stop those things not start them.

Poor Loon looks like he made another bad landing.

No joke – talk to the pharmacist and/or your doctor about all the meds, vitamins, and supplements you take – all of them. Even something as innocent as eating yogurt with some prescriptions can be bad. The internet is not a school of medicine or a pharmaceutical college either.

Leave it to Loon for a dumb joke, but funny one.
