this is a small sized robot that collects the pills
that
are accidentally dropped behind the pharmacy
counter. The bot has a camera that is used to
identify the pill type and also the "dropper"
The pharmacists work performance rating could
be
based in part on the amount of pills they drop.
The
Pharmacy Pet would also be programmed to
exhibit erratic behavior based on the type and
quantity of pills it consumes
it would exhibit behaviors that would serve to
embarrass the pharmacists behind the counter
thus
encouraging them to do a more careful job and
drop less pills or only drop pills that will cause
the pharmacy buddy to become lethargic.
Examples of embarrassing behaviors
could be a siren, hiccup noises, vomit noises,
loud flatulence, whimpering and crying.

What about hallucinations, paranoia, and anal leakage? |
|
| |
Show me a pharmacist with greasy fingers, and I'll show
you a medicine dropper. |
|
| |
Pharmacists actually touch your medications? It isn't
dispensed in sterile blister packs that constitute the
recommended dosages and course? |
|
| |
Machines dispense ours into the bottles. I suppose a
few might fall on the floor, but not often enough to
support a pet, I don't think. |
|
| |
I tried peeing into a bottle, in a moving car, once.
Not exactly successful. |
|
| |
How could it be? You guys are upside-down. |
|
| |
Ask your pharmacist if Pharmacy-Pet is right for them. |

I'm constantly surprised that all of the water in the
southern hemisphere doesn't just run off into space,
all by itself. |
|
| |
Ah, but here in the southern hemisphere, things fall up... |
|
| |
//I'm constantly surprised...// |
|
| |
Actually, [ubie], there is no southern hemisphere. A
lot of effort has gone into supporting your delusion,
but enough is enough. The Earth is actually
hemispherical, with a huge elasticated cover over
the flat surface to keep the magma in. What you
consider to be "Australia" is known to us as The
Osterbach Institute for Endearing Delusions, and is
just outside Stoke. |
|
| |
There's always one who just can't keep his
mouth shut, isn't there? |
|
| |
Now they're all going to have to go on double
dosages until the memory fades. Do you have
any idea how much that is going to cost? |
|
| |
By the way, that repair to the cover seems to
be holding. You might want to vent a bit more
pressure sometime soon, though. |
|
| |
//Do you have any idea how much that is going to cost?//
Just send me 75% of what you reckon it will cost and I will
promise to keep schtum. |

I'm curious as to how you all make a supposed living
out of the experimental anarchist commune you call
Britain, [Max]. What is your actual job description
again? Pubic Louse Sexer or something, isn't it? |
|
| |
No, that's a guild job, gotta be born into it. Most of the Uk makes a living by selling dodgy stocks to one another or appearing as stereotypical English on American tv. Hugh Laurie excepted. |
|
| |
Just pondering, do the lice fall prey to sexually transmitted diseases? |
|
| |
Just wondering how many pubic lice are LASERed to
death, given the recent trend to hair removal... |
|
| |
//I'm curious as to how you all make a supposed living

|
| |
Well, the first (and most obvious) step was deporting
all the undesirables to Australia. Of course, having
gotten that out of the way, they're still figuring out
step two. |
|
| |
//all the undesirables//. i.e. Anyone more intelligent,
successful, physically attractive etc. than one's self. |
|
| |
I thought it would be well known by now that what the
Australian's did was the inverse of Tom Sawyer's ploy with
whitewashing the fence. In this case, the Aussies came up
with the story that it is chockfull of all these nasty,
venomous critters so those who couldn't figure out that it
was in reality much better than The Olde World would stay
home. |
|
| |
I have a feeling the first Europeans to arrive here
were pretty unhappy at first, before they figured out
it's warm and sunny, food's not that hard to obtain
and it's not crawling with nasty fucking Scots and
Welsh hooligans. |
|
| |
What's more, it's virtually Viking-proof. We can't abide the
spiders, you see. |
|
| |
//food's not that hard to obtain// |
|
| |
If you can call it "food". All Vegemite and 'roo meat.
Blecch. |
