According to recent commercials for new blood-sugar/glucose monitors, diabetics don't have to prick their fingers anymore to test their blood sugar anymore.
"You can do it on you arm where it's less painful." I find this ad depressing because, even though I'm not diabetic myself (KNOCK WOOD), I know certain diabetics can't use this new method and still have to prick their fingers. I'm not sure why that is, but I know it must this particular ad must drive them up the wall! |

Lol, how about this one with the syrupy sweet Nicole Johnson whom I'm sure has caused many a diabetic sugar spiked induced comas? |

If you think this one's bad, then how about this little gem?

There are so many things just wrong... I am especially unsettled by the cross-eyed woman telling me how well she can 'see' her number.
My fave part? "There's my number!" I laugh every time I hear her and I am not sure why. |

Probably 'cause you just know she sees her number as 8989.

This commercial comes on during Jeopardy every night. There are so many things wrong with it...the loud-ass black woman screaming "OWW-WWW!" in the beginning, the fake acting, that cross-eyed woman talking about seeing her number (THERE'S irony for ya! ) and that extremely creepy doctor. I'm going to have nightmares now about his eyes and single expression face! *shudders*

I think you misunderstood the cross-eyed lady. She actually says, "Not only can I see my number (probably in double as Thor pointed out) I can hear it too!!!!".
