While searching for the next documentary to watch "On Demand", a commercial

[Solly Mack]

for pain relief patches informed me that everything I do is best accomplished without pain.

Which has now replaced my mild irritation with the commercial that feels the need to inform me that 6 is greater than 1.

Apropos of nothing really.

Merely sharing.

1. I hate that "6 is more than 1" ad, too. But then I remember

that 35% of the people in this country still "like" Asshole. Those people are so utterly stupid that they do need to be told the obvious, especially when it has something to do with numbers.

As for "doing something is easier without pain," I'll attest to that so now I'm on pee tests and contracts for a fairly minimal dose that hasn't changed in 10 years. There is no way I would accept patches or anything with "contin" in the name. While 24/7 pain control seems attractive (no more waking up and having to get up for a while because pain), I know it's the fastest way to getting into real trouble with opioid dependence.

2. I am on pain management as well.

I think that is what irritates me the most about the commercial. Well, yeah, everything is easier accomplished without pain.

I could be having a bad day.
