Stop speaking folksy, it's creepy. Especially when advocating for pharmaceutical companies, they are fully capable of doing that themselves. 

Edit: Sorry y'all, I'm hecking sorry! Y'all so down to earth and cool I now see the error of my ways. I will keep my message up to serve as an example to any other people that could shudder  object to creepy folksy messages promoting novel treatments developed by for-profit companies which are exempt from compensation for any damages caused by said treatment (which don't happen, but if they do - it's a good thing).
