Hopefully we all know by now that the reason for the pretty graphics and smiling people and jump cuts and above all LOUD MUSIC in pharmaceutical ads is to hide the required-by-law list of disclaimers (possible side effects) that accompany them. But it turns out that it's even worse than I thought: One YouTuber has discovered that if you play this ad backwards, you'll hear a subliminal message....
Don't worry, parents. It has nothing to do with Satan. Technically.
(By the way, the Rybelsus commercial includes my absolute favorite line in the history of television ads. Near the end, in small print, you can clearly see the words "drinking plenty of fluids may reduce your chances of dehydration." MIND BLOWN!)
