Stars Over Chile

Belief in a Flat Earth

Surely in our era of space exploration – where satellites take photos of our blue and clearly globular planet from space, and robots send back info about soil and water from Mars – no one can seriously still believe that the Earth is flat?

Wrong.

Really?

Buying Generic

Okay, we all know the benefits of buying generic.  Generic ibuprofen is the same thing as Advil, but significantly cheaper.  So, we save money—sometimes quite a bit.

However, Snarkmarket points out the truly unbelievable savings that can be had by buying generic online.

For comparison’s sake, you get 32 pills in each bottle of Unisom (over-the-counter sleep-aid) and pay roughly $11.  Buy generic, however, and you’ll get 1,000 pills for $20.  I shit you not.
