Cannot stand the Restasis commercial where the woman says, "My doctor told me I have a disease. That's a big deal." No, bitch, it is no more a big deal than it was before your doctor gave your condition a name. Ugh. She reminds me of my sister, that's just the kind of thing she would think. Then she'd tell us all at Thanksgiving, in a serious subdued tone, that she's been diagnosed with a disease. "The doctor says I have . . . chronic dry eye."
Not to minimize what I am sure is the uncomfortable nature of chronic dry eye. But c'mon. Let's reserve the "big deal" for things that actually are.
