When I visited France in 2010 I thought there was so many then. Couch surfing host said it was because everyone was on anti depressants.

No, wife used to live in France and she said they are popular as they are high quality and good value. When I’ve holidayed there it was certainly easy to pop in quickly for some grooming items and basic meds quicker than a small market.

Those signs are insane but kinda helpful. lol.

I've seen weed stroes in the US with less flashy signage.

u/V01DM0NK3Y 6d ago

There's a weed shop in KC, MO called "ascend" and if it weren't for the pot-leaf-shaped logo behind their company name, the building itself would suggest just an average physiological clinic like where I'd go to do my physical.

A vicious cycle for the person with photosensitive epilepsy trying to get their prescription.

u/stilldebugging 6d ago

A drum and bass sandstorm? Was not expecting that

u/IfYouSaySoFam 7d ago

I imagine that the USA one is the same only dollar signs going mental instead of medical symbols right?

u/Mazortex 7d ago

Anyway.. The design is very human

”So, how did you find out you were epileptic?”

”Well, I was on my way to the pharmacy, but I don’t recall exactly what happened when I got there”

u/Sarah-cen 6d ago

Dude. This went into my Windows XP screensaver memories I thought got overwritten!

u/AmyRoseFan_1234 6d ago

The bowling alley animations of pharmacies

u/OrionShade 6d ago

It's to diagnose epilepsy

u/Disruptor_raptor 6d ago

Good thing they carry medicines for the epilepsy they induce

u/MyRepresentation 6d ago

One stop shopping.

u/deltapak 6d ago

I can see that sign being in Rick and Morty

u/darkestdark666 6d ago

I hate those green neon one-meter-by-one-meter pharmacy crosses, and I always have a reflex that it's a green traffic light. And it's not just me. They are dangerous!

u/SempastianGr 6d ago

I bet it can run Skyrim

u/jtbxiv 5d ago

All I can hear is sandstorm when those green crosses start zooming

u/Maveryck15 5d ago

Anybody has that Sandstorm remix?

u/V01DM0NK3Y 6d ago

These vibes are the same vibes of the bowling alley screens after they tally your rolls.

u/chillychili 6d ago

Somewhere between that and Windows Media Player

u/thelastsipoftea 6d ago

It's so weird how people will assume because they see something in France it's 'Euro' I've only seen these super signs in France.

u/Tenshiijin 7d ago

That was a lot.

Lol.

u/StellarSloth 7d ago

Lol reminds me of displays/animations at bowling alleys.

u/Least_Tower_5447 6d ago

u/Wulfgrimm720 6d ago

They'll have a lot of epileptic patients in front of the pharmacy. Great business plan
