Lord knows we’ve given SEPTA enough guff lately, but before our memories of The Strike That Was fade into the sunset, let us remember this bit for next time: The SEPTA strike was cured, in part at least, buy the promise of… more dick pills. (As in Viagra, Cialis, etc., and not — we repeat, not — the “dick pills” we take every time we have to write about, say, Jennifer Weiner.) Salon points us to a post on The Daily Finance blog that outlines something that Karen Heller said about a story that The Daily News reported on way back in 2001: For years now, SEPTA talks have been marked by “the Viagra conversation,” wherein somebody, somewhere, gets all upset that they’re only allowed ten dick pills per week. And worse still, they’re serious about these dick pills. SEPTA NEEDS A LOT OF DICK PILLS, OK? Kind of puts this in a whole new perspective, eh? Oh, SEPTA: They may be getting there, but unless you got a handful of The White Man’s Overbite, they certainly ain’t getting it up.
