Weird ad

2008-06-18 16:39:16.030049+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

I just clicked through to a New York Times article, and the interstitial ad had "Pain Killer / Party Starter" fade in over a pill, fade out, and fade in "Your Health / Their High". In small type down there in the lower left there was a "Parents, the anti-drug" tag, so I assume that this was more propaganda from the as always hilarious "ONDCP", but now I'm obsessed with finding out what drug they were talking about.

That sounds like fun!
