Why do questionable-looking women in news stories get "you'd hit it" headlines, whereas Hollywood starlets often have knees that are too sharp?

BurnShrike: Woman on cocktail of prescription drugs plows through yard

I wouldn't mind plowing through her yard.

The chemical test determined that Rossi had 45 ng/mL of Nordiazepam, 26 ng/mL of Oxazepam, 9.3 ng/mL of Clonazepam, 62 ng /mL of Alprazplam, 10 ng/mL of Oxycodone and 17 ng/mL of 7-Amino Clonazepam.

I know you're not supposed to put your dick in crazy, but if you're on that much medication you've gotta be well balanced, right?

It's the Elvis medication method. Everything balances out everything else.

You don't think Katy Perry should be held to a higher standard when she has personal trainers, cooks, and stylists flitting about her gaily all day while this chick looks this good in a mug shot after an accident whilst tripping balls?

We don't do that IRL, though: You don't walk down the street and say, "Hey, I bet if that homeless crack whore had a little bit better luck in life, she'd be fairly hittable". Nor do you walk into your house after a long day's work and think (or at least say out loud) in regards to your wife/SO, "Jesus Christ, you'd think with all the leisure time she has, she could look a little better than *this*!"

And, yes, these examples are a bit extreme, but that's just for emphasis.

We do give the more middle of the road types the benefit of the doubt though. At least I do.

I'm mostly certain that I found her facebook account.

with orig for compare

Anyone who says she is "questionable looking" is most likely gay.

careful not to bite the boobs that feed you, bro

I don't bite. I nibble.

LowbrowDeluxe: Any pharmacists out there? That sounds more like she's got 2 prescriptions with multiple active ingredients. Hardly what I'd call a 'cocktail' of drugs. Looks like a lowish dose painkiller and...anti-anxiety med?

My ex was on a "cocktail" of pain meds and anti-anxiety pills.

To say it makes 'em nucking futz is the understatement of the century.

FB picture doesn't look like article picture. It matters not, I will take one of each.

That's her except with a completely different facial structure

Fail.

well her life is over.

LowbrowDeluxe: I'm just wondering where this recent hysteria about pill poppers is coming from.

Oh, it's been around for as long as I can remember. I think it resurfaces with a little more intensity every now and then. See the Stones' "Mother's Little Helper" for example.

I would think the kind of old people who are likely to fall prey to it would be the first to shrug it off, I've yet to meet someone over the age of 60 without at least 4-5 daily prescriptions.

Well, that's certainly true. Both my parents had tons of pills to take daily in their final years. It got so bad I paid out of my own pocket for them to see a pharmacologist twice a year in order to have the effects and counter-effects judged. He routinely cut their meds in half. Every single farking time.

I had noticed that every time they went to see a doctor, he/she wrote them another script. Almost without fail. And usually without asking them what they were already taking. I got so I would make a list of their meds (names, dosages, etc) and print it out, and make them keep it in their wallet. Whenever they would go to the doctor, I'd make the doctor look at the list. Usually they just glanced at it, then wrote the script.

One of the main reasons I seriously distrust most doctors these days.

(insert rant about pharma and physician kickbacks here)

Gough:
I'm more concerned about the comments combining "over 60" and "in their final years". Is there something I need to know?? Should I stop buying green bananas?

Heh - they were both well into their 80s when they croaked. Would have lasted longer without that "Greatest Generation" habit of two packs a day.
