How do you get your prescriptions? Because that's exactly what happened the last time I needed one.


Laserjet printer on a special form. Where I work we even have software that lets the doctors have a list of "favorites" that they can just check a box on and put in a number. Bad handwriting is a pretty big concern for safety and accountability.

That and remotely filing prescriptions directly to a chosen pharmacy, when available.

Dick Tracy



Wait, that looks like an even more exaggerated version of Fearless Fosdick, which we've already established exists as a comic strip in the Dick Tracy universe, so why would he assume this strip is a direct jab at him rather than a shameless ripoff of another, more popular strip? And I'm not even going to get into the fact that the in-universe paper seems to carry Annie even though Dick recently had dinner with the actual Daddy Warbucks because this post already reads like the yapping of an Excitable Dog Comix.

For anyone who came to these threads late, when Lila folded it was revealed that it just wasn't making enough money for the writer to pay the three(?) artists who work on it. On that.
Also seeing Medium Large again has me missing the goon that was friends with Mr. Sally Forth, who carried us messages from him.
