But the generic did not.
We are also talking OTC generic- a much different game. Yet again, the whole "store brand" thing is what will drive it down. Not one competitor. A gaggle of competitors with varying prices attempting to undercut one another to grasp the most total transactions.
ETA: "Race to the top, not the…

We had a raccoon in our garbage can once. We lived in the woods, so this was no big deal, except my dad was trying to take out the trash. So he turns the can on its side and waits. Two days later, there is still a raccoon in the trash. So he dumps it out.... and proceeds to run like hell from a very unamused raccoon.

Question 1: Am I going to have to touch the filthy walls of this alley to pass through?
Yes?
Questions over, take the long route.

I honestly dislike her face, for whatever personal preference, but I could care less that she dated X number of men.
My creep-out factor with her is that she has seemingly gone younger and younger, and for a bit was exclusively chasing after high school guys. That one really gave me creepy-feelies, as it would for any…

Oh, they make that, but not in t-shirt form. Just go buy US Weekly every week for a year, and you'll have them all.

Yep. A friend and I walk two miles on a trail here every morning, and she is from Canada. To her, it is deathly hot. To me, it is a vacation in the nicest weather. Is it a tad hot? Well, yes, but I can self-cool in this drier heat!
I look forward to winter, when it will be cool without being also very moist and…

I make compotes and jams often, and strainers are my dear friend. I love raspberry and blackberry flavors, but cannot stand teensy seeds.
Peaches. Peaches are the best fruit, followed closely by sour cherries. One seed, easily removed.

Was not aimed at you, but at the number of articles being posted lately that make light of gluten-free because it is just so damn funny. I don't understand why, espceially on Jezebel, it is seen as hilarity to make jokes about a disease covered by the ADA. I am somewhat expecting "damn lepers" jokes to begin in…

She is a good lookalike. The man has entirely too much thick hair, though.

I'd prefer zombies. At least then we get to really react and show off our amazing mass human collaboration skills that only otherwise get used in localized emergencies.

May you never experience a hung-over vomiting after this meal, as I am certain it would not be enjoyable on its return.

That's the thing, though: I am a pastry chef. I make gourmet things at home when I really want them, and we eat them once, and then it is all done. I am not going to put that effort into making the regular crap I would go buy at any corner store, nor do I waste my eating experience on just random iced balls of bland,…

Agreed!
Relevant: People who cautiously read every ingredient, count every calorie, source every boneless skinless non fat sugar free non GMO no soya chicken breast still die. It's one of those things that you can slightly delay, but not actually avoid.
And boy howdy, have I seen plenty of super-food chomping vegans…

PLEASE tell me that there was an emergency override release in case of fires?

I just moved from NOLA to San Antonio, and people here complain that it is hot and I can't even keep a straight face. Eyebrows to my hairline, every time. Hot here? Yes, but at least it is not also hovering at 98% humidity at all times.
I'm also -professionally- a pastry chef. Our A/C went out last summer/fall/NOLA in…

"The generic".
Found the problem! In order for generic drugs to be noticeably cheaper, there has to be a market, and there has to be competition. Two competitors is almost always a race to the top, not the bottom. There is no Target brand Plan B. No one is marketing the WalMart or HEB version. The sooner we get to that…

My great uncle began to exhibit sudden severe Alzheimer's right around the same time as his wife was diagnosed with lung cancer a few years ago. She died quickly, having been treated for "pneumonia" for over a year instead of aggressive lung cancer. He was placed in a nursing home, and seems happy there.

I think that they are more interested in seeing it visibly available on shelves, so that you can purchase it when the pharmacy is closed, and it doesn't appear to be available by prescription only. Putting it behind the counter is often called a loss prevention effort, but it really gives it the appearance of being…

It is also on-brand, not generic. Hopefully in the move to OTC availability, we will also see more generic options. That would be a huge step in getting prices to drop.

My kid is 18.... months. I use the reverse "calm the fuck down" method on her already. Meltdown in the cereal aisle? Kid, you're allergic so you are sure as hell not getting the cereal with every Disney character you've ever seen, printed right on the box to entice toddlers. Not happening. Here's some oat bran, calm…
