'Never Leave Me'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The commercial showed a woman biting into a fresh peach, and then juice drips over her hands, and then her phone rings and she doesn't have a clean hand to pick it up with, and oh no! Fruit is just too complicated!
Oh yeah, that's hilarious. That should be in the thing online that's all the people in infomercials fucking up simple tasks.
She tries to pick up the phone with her foot.

Man, if I had a dime for every time that's happened! ... I wouldn't have enough to buy another dime.

I didn't pay enough attention, but the Nova ep suggested that there is a neurological connection with money and competition that makes such things happen. They further suggested that money effects the brain in the same ways that sex and food do. Interesting evolutionarily speaking.
