At one point in my meandering, I taught, mostly middle school age children, in the birthplace of The American Revolution. English writing and speech were among the subjects taught.
One day in the late 1990’s I found myself on a municipal bus when three loud teenage females sat down in front of me. Beside the decibel level and its incessant nature, I found myself marveling at the ubiquitous use of “like” as a filler, rather than a comparison or feeling. The following is the prime example which stays with me all these many years: “And like, ya know, it was like a bitch, ‘cause she, like, liked him, ya know!”
All that to say that as far as I can tell, Pharma is next in line behind the Black Nobility and the triad of MI6/CIA/Mossad. Try imagining the new encyclopedic medical knowledge gained by your average Jane and Joe, even if most is simply by remote osmosis.
I know of one person who (does not suffer from but) has alopecia. My friend damaged after #2 jab, has Bruce Willis’ aphasia. When I visit him in the afternoon the TV is always on, and Pharma is by far the main sponsor. My friend often mutes it out of my asking often enough that he’s learned; I didn’t watch ‘Friends’ when it was current, and I am not interested in it now. (He, by the by, has it memorized, and will turn the volume back on “just for this good part.”
Good stuff, Good Citizen.

We’re programmed. What a bitch slap!
