Apparently, You Can Get Birth Control Pills on Twitter
When I tell you that Twitter is the Den of Iniquity, please believe me. That place is where logic and any semblance of good sense goes to die. Which is why I created DumbestTweets.com to keep track of all the foolishness that goes on there.
At this point, I thought I’d seen it all. But every time I think this, something happens to top whatever I was just outraged about.
Two days ago, it was this tweet:
Ma’am, did you mean “fiancé?” iCan’t. I CANNOT!!! I know Beyoncé “runs the world” and whatnot but LAWD! I just don’t damb understand.
And as if that isn’t bad enough, #feyonce became a WORLDWIDE Twitter Trending topic because of this tweet. I facepalmed and lamented on how schools are failing us. *deep sigh*
And then yesterday’s foolishness happened. I was minding my own business when this entered my eLife:
Wait. WAYMENT! This fool is selling her birth control pills on THE TWITTAH!!! No side-eye can be strong enough to articulate how ridiculous this. Is this where we’ve come to??? We’re hawking (and potentially buying) our hormones and medication from Twitter? Chile listen… we’re regressing as a people. A species, even.
There are just SO many things wrong with this.
First of all, why is this chick finding it necessary to sell her unwanted pills on Twitter? I know the recession struggle is real, but GAHTDAMB! Tryna make $10-25 by hawking your birth control pills ain’t what life is about. She couldn’t borrow that money from her friends? Maybe she doesn’t have any because friends don’t let friends do stuff like this.
Furthermore, is this even legal? Nawl. I’m pretty sure it isn’t. Birth control pills are obtained by prescription only, since doctors have to figure out the right ones for your SPECIFIC needs and body. Giving medication prescribed just for you to someone else without a doctor’s permission is probably illegal #dinnamug. And let’s not e’em talk about how dangerous it is for you to use the wrong pills. LET US NOT TALK ABOUT IT!
As if that isn’t bad enough. Getting pills from a stranger is as smart as putting your head in a crocodile’s mouth. DUMB AS HELL!!! Lemme find out some poor unfortunate soul actually bought them from her. If someone was dumb enough to buy them and their uterus fights back, I won’t e’em feel NO sympatation for them. Yes, I said sympatation.
I don’t have time for this foolishness (said the blogger who just dedicated a whole post to it. O___o)
Whatcha’ll think? Is this your friend? Would you buy pills from a stranger bish on Twitter? HOW DID WE GET THERE???
