And today, more states are legalizing pot to be smoked, and Botox is replacing face creams.

I remember most of these, or at least derivatives thereof.
Here's a favorite of mine:
Even back then the processed food companies had to convince us they were better.

Don't consider people too dumb for believing that, because in English class years ago we classified the types of commercials. One was an appeal to authority. The doctor is one that most people believe (I believe unjustifiably). But today, instead of Camels, it's cholesterol pills. And some people chastise me for challenging that like I'm not a Christian or something for not believing someone who "God uses to heal us" or whatever else there is. And sure enough people now pop these pills instead of smoking Camels.
Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Now it may be easier for some to understand my aversion to medications. Just pretend I see it as a doctor smoking and recommending Camels instead.
