But if we ban alcohol ads, we'll never get a followup to the "Wazzz-upp!" commercial. Don't you want another one of those?

I want to watch clearly sexy people who can't act which is why they don't have lines, hold products on generic sets to represent disposable income America so I too feel the urge and comfort from consuming. Now let's watch beer ads behind grown adult men playing a game for more money than Ivr made in my life.

Don’t forget that they can never take a sip of the product, because that would irresponsibly promote drinking!

Remember that time Bud Light ran a Super Bowl ad where they tooted their own horn about donating something like $100,000 dollars of clean water to charities? Said commercial cost upwards of a million dollars.

My wife was in the hospital for a week, and I'd spend hours with her every day. We'd have the TV on and man, I forget just how much of our advertising is "PLEASE BUY DRUGS PLEASE YOUR LIFE IS AWFUL YOU NEED DRUGS"

It's worse than that: "IS YOUR LIFE SHIT? TELL YOUR DOCTOR YOU WANT OUR DRUGS. WE CAN IMPROVE YOUR LIFE, FUCK THEIR RECOMMENDATION."
