Now not all doctors are dumb but the ones that companies talk to in order to make their product seem “good” for you are probably dumb. I don’t know any so I can’t say for sure, but I’m going to go with gut on this.

I’m sure you have seen those commercials on TV, the most recent one I can think of is for “5 Hour Energy” where they say they talked to 3000 doctors about people using their product. It makes me laugh because everything she says doesn’t make sense. She says something like “We asked 3000 doctors is they would recommend 5 hour energy to their patients, and 73% said they would recommend it to their patients already taking a low calorie energy supplement” So basically if they are already taking energy inhancers they sure they might as well take 5 Hour Energy. Only 73% of them said they would? It’s supposed to be for energy right, it should be across the board!

Anyway, 20 years ago doctors said that cigarettes were good for you with the Camel tag line “”more doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette.” So it makes you think, what is going to kill us in 20 years that doctors are saying is ok now? Here’s what I found…

I don’t even know what that is a picture of but I want 2 STAT! ….Ok, So whatever optimism in life you were holding onto before you began reading this should be gone by the end. Why? Because I’m going to ruin the GOOD things in life by showing you how BAD they are. Why would I do that? Well…because I found an article and read it and it ruined my day, so I thought I would do the good neighborly thing and share! (You’re welcome) Ok, it’s not that bad. It does kind of make you wonder why you are nice to people though. Speaking of which…(***WARNING TANGENT APPROACHING***) I just got done reading Frankenstein for the first time. Never seen any movies based on the book either, so the fact that the monster was a cool and educated dude with a little temper that just wanted to be loved, was kind of a shock to me! He was such a nice dude but everyone kept running away from him! Talk about doing good things and having them back fire. (see I knew it would tie-in to this post somewhere) Anyway, check out 4 good things that are actually BAD. Including Love, after the jump!

I hope you get over that Emo stage quickly because it may have a lasting affect on you in your adult life. Click the jump to find out….or don’t….whatever….sigh…
