It appears that Gud and I have religious differences....
Mal: You want to tell me how come there's a statue of you here looking at me like I owe him something? Jayne: Wishing I could, Captain.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's actually Sid the wily dairy gnome with an invisibility cloak.

I appreciate the backup even if Frankenbudda subscribes to that other gnomist sect.

Only during those times when Harry is recharging his freeze ray.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Man, I just don't know what to believe any more.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I, for one, welcome our new spaghetti penguin gnome overlords.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How reliable is it that people even see popups?
These aren't web popups. They're a random window extolling virtues of some sort. It's not like I'm going to read the whole thing.
Made my chiro appointment for today, and cancelled the ortho. I need my spine cracked something awful. I don't know what's happening to my skeleton, but my joints are very cranky recently.

Apparently, "a really good reason" does not mean "scientific studies say so," or anyway not at first.
Part of the problem is that too often the scientific studies get discredited quickly, or they're twisted in the media, or they're revealed to have been biased from the start. In my diabetes class, the instructor was chugging her diet Coke and said, "Research revealed that all the tests done on the dangers of aspertame were funded by the Sugar Council. Draw your own conclusions."
People don't trust studies anymore. "Eat more carbs!" Huh, why are so many people getting so fat and having blood sugar problems? "Oh, you're eating the wrong carbs!" Hardly anyone has been taught how to think anymore, that was one of the classes deemed extraneous to a curriculum designed to train people to make money.
