I leave the TV on during the day, mostly for the noise, but I like to hear some news too.

It's been driving me crazy that they are CONSTANTLY advertising all sorts of drugs, constantly filling my ears with unimaginable signs and symptoms.

Is it just me? Is there anything that can be done about this?

Most of these drugs you wouldn't need to know about unless you had a very serious and specific condition. In which case, your doctor should be the one to tell you about it, or at least a google search. But why do I have to hear about horrible diseases while I'm trying to de-stress? It's insidious.
