Remeber tha Olestra ads? The. Very. Best. Side effects list in the history of advertising. I'll never be able to forget the immortal line:
"Side effects make include an increased number of bowel movements, an urgent need to have them, and the inability to control them."
Ah, pure lyric poetry.

You overlooked the most best part: BLACK OILY DISCHARGE.

I think you may be thinking of Xenical.
"You may experience gas with oily discharge, increased bowel movements, an urgent need to have them, and an inability to control them."
Maddox had a whole page about Xenical. (His website seems to be failing to load for me) I think his take makes the most sense: paraphrased, it's better to be a little overweight than to be constantly running for the bathroom with greasy underwear.

A programmer and an engineer should both be math/science guys.
To someone on the 'outside' all 3 are the same thing :)

All right, this isn't a meme really either but in retrospect I think stuff like this is maybe better here than in the Pics thread.

As someone who studied computer science and worked writing software, you've got the wrong Steve.
Okay, you're right about that one.
For those of us on the eastern seaboard.
