I just saw an ad that has gone way too far. Its a tv ad for a pill that "cures" antsy legs.
Yeah that's right, they are marketing a pill for restless leg syndrome.
I even goes as far as to inform us that it's a recognized problem.

The pill also comes with some heavy side effects, one of them is "Drowsiness during waking hours" and general sloth.
