We all work for Big Mercury!
Edited on Thu Feb-21-08 08:18 AM by lizerdbits
I just read in the Health Lounge that we have a secret handshake and cutesy phrases. We've been planted by the medical and dental community to disseminate misinformation about mercury. Where is my check?! Is it separate from the Big Pharma check or are they lumped together?

The accuser had quite an investment in believing all this shit- she says she refinanced her house to have her amalgam fillings removed. To spend all that money and not believe you've been magically cured of some disease would mean admitting you were duped and wasted a shitload of money.

1. I though Mercury was the smallest of planets.
I think I'd rather work for Neptune - that planet has style!

2. I used to own a Mercury Marquis.
Does that make me guilty?

5. A small irony


I'm sure we all recognize that caduceus in the left hand of the god.

6. you should post that in the Health Lounge
Edited on Thu Feb-21-08 01:49 PM by GoneOffShore
in that thread.

:rofl:

I can't really call it a discussion group - there are more Lounge worthy threads there sometimes than in the actual Lounge.

7. Be my guest.
But remember most of the people who post there would never recognize Mercury much less the caduceus.

Perhaps we should have a Snarky Caption Contest before we impose it on the health scare lounge?

8. Where's my damn check??!?
I sure as fuck would like to start getting my incentive checks, it's cold as hell and natural gas is through the roof! My guinea pigs were shivering the other day and I had to break down and jack the thermostat up to 66, damn those wimpy little bastards.
