Yahoo! About fucking time.

The age restriction doesn't please me a whole lot, but you know, I really don't know of anyone underage who has a hard time getting alcohol or cigarettes...

No fucking kidding. I personally just LOVE it when my government uses their personal beliefs to make decisions for their people rather than science myself. It just makes the trip back to the Middle Ages that much quicker.

I'm getting way too cynical in my old age.

Well, at least up at Tech now, there won't have to be 1.5 hour trips to Marquette...

Yeah, right. The pharmacists will still be the ones dispensing it from behind the counter, and of course it's at their discretion. (btw, I think pharmacists who don't dispense pills because it's against their morals should be fired for not doing their damn jobs-nobody's making them take the damn pills. I keep waiting for a vegetarian grocer to refuse to sell meat because it violates their morals and not get fired for it...sheesh.)

Back in the day, when my parents went there, people were making trips to Marquette for Big Macs and greasy fries. I think the only trip I made to Marquette was to watch Tech's hockey team get their asses beat with a bunch of other brothers. Good times.

That would make a fantastic point/publicity stunt. Why hasn't anyone done it, I wonder?

Well, I was a semi-vegetarian when I worked at Kroger, but I really needed the money at the time...

Because the vast majority of vegetarians are classy enough to let people decide for themselves what they're going to eat rather than trying to force their lifestyle on other people?

And because American society accepts pharmacists who refuse to give out prescriptions for their pro-abortion(oh excuse me, pro-life) views, and vegetarians are unusual enough in this country that they already take a lot of shit for their decision.

It's a good thing but you are right... they will find ways to get them.

I think it's hilarious that its name is Plan B.

Well, yeah, it's kinda meant to be used when the first method of birth control fails (or you're drunk and don't think that far ahead, in which case Oh shit, give me the damn pills! might be a better name).
