Thank you for the real world example, and thyroid meds are
[QUOTE=ChuchoLoco;2492110]Active ingredients may be the same but binders are different and therefore absorption and effects. Plus generics have less stringent manufacturing tolerances so each pill can vary in strength more than brand. Case in point, my thyroid meds. Brand name only or I am not right and blood tests aren't either.[/QUOTE]An excellent one. There are many generics that are not equivalent to the brand and the difference gets worse when you start switching from generic to generic. As is every poster who has attempted to prove me wrong here on this topic, on Covid immunity, on anything health related, they are all back pedalling now, even if they won't admit it. Apparently now we are only talking about Viagra, although if you read back, there are posts claiming all generics are equal to branded drugs, jaja.
I am not writing from Googling, didn't check once, but from education, training and real world experience. I know what changing policy that controlled whether or not thousands of members got switched to a different generic drugs does, including the aftermath and the fall out. The Internet makes a lot of info available to a lot of people but I will not post unless I have direct experience or I will say that I don't. And despite my deserved reputation here and elsewhere on the Internet (Legend in My Own Mind Syndrome, jajaja) as a sarcastic, attention whoring asshole, I don't do this to be right. In fact, I would prefer to be wrong and learn something, but it simply does not happen than often because I know what I don't know which is harder than it sounds. And obviously very hard for certain others here.
I do this so other Users can get what I believe to be the correct information or at least a balanced viewpoint. I won't comment on generics anymore for now. I am happy for anyone who is happy with their generic drug choice. I have respect for other members here, no matter what the topic is you can count on me being a truth-seeker.
Strong negative correlation
[QUOTE=Frank11;2492307]Also, with regards to the generic Viagra, it's been noted in psychology that sometimes our minds play tricks on us. And 1 of these instances is When a person see something that is for free or has a low price they trick themselves into thinking that the free lower-priced product cannot be as good as the more expensive one. False belief.
If you want to critique an item on its quality you need evidence to analyze the performance of the item. The higher price may have to do with licensing issues, import taxes, or cost of transportation, amongst other things. And of course, sometimes, the lower-priced products may be coincidentally inferior in quality.[/QUOTE][URL]https://freakonomics.com/2008/07/24/keep-the-cheap-wine-flowing/[/URL]
I will state there is a negative correlation with price vs service quality in P4P.
The mongers that pay the most get the worst service, a basic paradox of paying for pussy.
Generally speaking the more you pay the less you get.
There may be a difference between a soi 4 girl in bkk and a girl inside nana.
But once you cross a certain point, each market is different.
But once you start to overpay, the ROI shifts into the negative very quickly.
Very simply put, too much is too much.
Cutting in line by overpaying is not the solution.
PAYING FOR PICS and VIDEO AFFECTS THE PRICE MARKET
You establish a littany of points just to shoot yourself in the foot. Chicks are saying if I can get this amount from sending a guy pics and videos. For 1 I don't need to sell pussy. 2 I might as well up my price if if I am going to do more physical and harmful work. You give them options and it affects the market. Like I said if your doing it for humanitarian purposes I can understand but geez why why why if there is free porn. The point about free food in a dumpster don't ever use that again. Makes less sense than buying pics and videos.
[QUOTE=JjBee62;2492133]That's an number. The maximum amount of internet traffic is 100%. If 146% is free porn, then not only does this forum not exist, nor any other website (each website eats up a tiny percentage of the traffic with information which isn't free porn), every second there is a backlog of requests for free porn that is growing exponentially and by now must be adding at least 1000 years of wait time to the queue every second.
I think what you meant to say is a lot of free porn is available. Yes it is. And everyone who pays for porn is a fool with no self-esteem. Right?
Do you have any idea how much free pussy is available? I recently went to my 40 year high school reunion and of the 35 or so women there, at least a dozen let me know that they would be happy to open their legs for me. 3 of them were there with their husbands. Now obviously, since free pussy is available, anyone who pays for pussy is a fool with no self-esteem.
Let's take it a step further. Check the dumpster behind any restaurant. You know what you'll find? Food. Free food. Only fools with no self-esteem would go to a restaurant and pay for food when they can get the same food for free just outside the back door. There's even napkins in there!
There appears to be a flaw in your reasoning.
Here's how life works:
If you don't want to do something, don't do it.
If someone else wants to do something, don't worry about it.
Nobody is using your money to buy videos. Whether or not some other person buys videos has no effect on you. If you're bothered or offended because people are doing things you have no interest in, your self-esteem is the least of your problems.
Seriously, to everyone, are your situations that pathetic? You have nothing more interesting than to try to tell everyone else what they should or shouldn't be doing?
If some guy wants to rent an $1100 per night penthouse and spend $10 k a night in Parque Lleras, or a guy wants to stay in a $7 per night hostel and spend $15 a day, eating the cheapest food and fucking glue sniffers, don't worry about it.
If some guy wants to send $2000 a month Western Union or hand out $100 Victoria's Secret gift cards, don't worry about it.
If some guy wants to buy photos and videos, watch webcams or buy used panties, don't worry about it.
If some guy wants to fuck fat girls, skinny girls, ugly girls, pregnant girls, one-legged girls or old women, don't worry about it.
If some guy wants to fuck a tranny while some girl pegs him, don't worry about it.
Here's the list of things you should be worrying about:
1. Things that affect your dick.
2. Things that affect your money.
You all sound like a bunch of old ladies gossiping.[/QUOTE].
Thanks for restating what I wrote earlier

Oh, and when you can come up with a study that objectively measures performance of an ED drug, I'd like to see that. Surveys? Self reports? Hmmm, notoriously unreliable. I think we need to recruit the best girls Medellin has to offer and let them use their mouth as a gauge, jajaja.
There is no proof that paying for pics and videos effects anything

I think it was you who said that it's factual that paying for pics and videos drives up prices, if it wasn't you someone did? Where are those facts? How do you check those facts, or aren't we really talking more about opinon and beliefs? I call them mystical beliefs when some kind of magical cause and effect is attributed to non related events. I can think of a way to check what puta prices are doing, objectively. Can you?
It's Actually A Miracle Drug

It's been around a long time, and I even remember Pfizer's first pitch man for the product Bob Dole. I guess that calls me out as an old fart. It's interesting that after this drug came out, there were a lot of subsequent divorces.
It actually was a miracle drug at the time when you think about it, when it came out it enabled men who hadn't been able to get an erection let alone maintain one have sex after many years of being impotent. Hence a lot of guys getting divorced and chasing after younger women, and what a bonaza for mongers!
