"Our decision to launch a generic alternative to EpiPen is an extraordinary commercial response," Chief Executive Heather Bresch said Monday. "We determined that bypassing the brand system in this case and offering an additional alternative was the best option."
If by extraordinary they mean a 300% price increase from 8 years ago, that is pretty extraordinary. Just think if the price of all knee braces went up 300% in 8 years. That would be amazing. So amazing that a goverment would likely investigate to see if price fixing was going on because what the fuck.

So did you all hear the latest news? Anthony weiner was caught in another sexting scandal!! I love these stories, they're so juicy and entertaining. Apparently this time he took a picture of his weiner (covered by white briefs) while he was literally resting next to his son, who was visible in the background.
Among yahoo! questions: "Why can't Anthony weiner stop showing his weiner?"
A good question! But what I think is really amazing about this whole situation, is that his last name just happens to be slang for penis, and somehow, it is entirely appropriate for someone who literally tries to show his penis on twitter every once in a while. This is almost like winning a lottery levels of improbability. I find it just hilarious and amazingly fortuitous (depending on who you are) that a guy who's last name is Weiner literally can't stop showing his weiner.
Thoughts everyone??  . By the way Huma (his wife) divorced him as of today. I guess weiner thought with his weiner a bit too much.

Huma has a future. Wiener clearly doesn't. The political reasons for their marriage don't really exist anymore.
|
Its actually kind of amazing how much a dick pic can ruin someone's life. He went from being a congressman, to losing his seat. Now he was making something of a comeback by running for mayor, this will ruin that (most likely). In addition he has ruined his marriage. Its kind of amazing and sad all at the same time

Hillary and Huma and the indiscretions of their mates.

Eh. Maybe.
I mean, I buy that it attracts egomaniacs, attention hogs, etc. But this kind of thing? More common than people realize. Hell, I think it's amazing we get fewer congressmen on shit worse than adultery. Any group of 535 people includes child molesters, rapists, every imaginable kind of addict, people who beat their wives, etc.

But that group of 535 people isn't randomly picked. It's fairly self-selecting in that it weeds out the majority of those individuals.

His run for mayor of NY was in 2013, and he dropped out after the second sexting incident. This is the third one.

What about Weiner's behavior makes him a sociopath in your eyes?

Which is kinda my point. I don't think Congress is more criminal/deviant than the rest of us. Probably less so. It's just that people are fucked up.

A robocall from white nationalist and former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke urges voters to vote for him for U.S. Senate in Louisiana and for Donald Trump for president.
“Unless massive immigration is stopped now, we’ll be out numbered and outvoted in our own nation. It’s happening,” Duke says. “We’re losing our gun rights, our free speech. We’re taxed to death. We’re losing our jobs and businesses to unfair trade. We’re losing our country. Look at the Super Bowl salute to the Black Panther cop killers.
“It’s time to stand up and vote for Donald Trump for president and vote for me, David Duke for the U.S. Senate.”
In a phone interview with BuzzFeed News on Monday, Duke confirmed that the call was his.
“Everyone is saying they’re voting for Duke and Trump,” he said. “A blind man told me he was voting for Duke and Trump. The response has been overwhelming.”

I like to imagine that david duke has been wishing for years to get the support of a blind man so he can know in his heart, once and for all, that he isnt racist.

Wait beyonce is black?
I hope this means that john oliver can do the carlos danger dance.

Huma is finally separating from anthony Weiner. Possibly sexting with his kid literally next to him in bed was a bit too much. Not sure why the kid makes it an issue. When you're a responsible parent that means that you're basically going to have a kid with you 90% of the time but that most of what you're doing doesn't involve the kid. Home alone with the kid and need a shit, they get to watch. Need a shower and can't leave them unsupervised? Family shower time (assuming <5 here). As long as he didn't get his dick out I really don't see the big deal.
While I agree with this, it is so easy to paint Weiner as a bad parent because of it that there's no way it doesn't matter. Limbaugh is already on the waves blasting him as a deviant, etc. There was no way that the disadvantages to divorcing him outweigh the advantages anymore.
Plus the text was uber creepy - it was like "look who I have in bed with me."

Maybe its the other way around. Maybe people who are called Weiner are more likely to show their wiener. Maybe it is the name having power over the person!
