If God had meant us to exercise, he wouldn't have invented soft, cushy chairs.
And remote controls, so we only need to leave the chairs to go to the bathroom.

There are some who say it is, but personally? I think they're POD PEOPLE.

t loves Hec and his wily pop-culture ways
Senior year of college, my roommate and I took a film class on science fiction in film. We watched both the 1956 and 1977 Body Snatchers (the 1977 is WAY more bleak), and afterwards, when we'd see each other on campus, we'd point and shriek.
And yet, we could never figure out why we couldn't get dates.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I remember reading a few years ago about a brain injury that somehow disconnected the emotional and visual centers of the brain, so that when people who had this injury saw family members, they would visually recognize "That's my brother" or whatever, but wouldn't feel the emotional response that they expected to feel, and would conclude that their whole family had been replaced by pod people. I think I recall that, in a few of the cases, the doctors weren't able to convince them that they had a brain injury, since seeing someone they knew they were supposed to love and not feeling love was just too weird to deal with.

I don't feel love when I look at pictures of my family or loved ones. I don't feel anything in particular from a visual like that. I am a cold hearted bastard or brain injured.
