    I try to take comfort in the thought that they’re paying through the ass for that air time just to tell you some redundant shit like “blahblah corp is regulated by the central regulatory authority”.
    Ah, red tape… where would we be without it.

    There was a great Simpsons sketch on this, where Homer is watching an ad for some medication (or something) and at the end they rattle off a whole list of horrible side-effects.
    Very funny take on it.
