    I died laughing when I read that, for every hour of TV you watch you lose apprx 22 mins off your life expectancy...lmao wtf. Sooner or later something is going to kill you whats the big deal. Just like they say you shouldnt eat peanut butter because it clogs your arteries...f that noise im not giving up peanut butter so i can live longer, ide rather die happy than die miserable. People are crazy. Theres my 2 mins of useless information lol.

    haha i wondered the same thing. Possibly the same... they said it was the lack of physical activity not the actual TV itself.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    I wonder where they get those statistics. Life expectancy in the US is on a steady increase. Look at Third World African nations. They're lucky to make it to 50. They've got lions and hippos. Lions and hippos kill people, not TV.

    Yup. But even more deadly, cause they're smaller. You eat the little fuckers whole. It's not like a pie where you see half of it missing and go "Ho! Shit, I'm a fat bastard!". You just notice there's a few less of them, and how sad...they should be with their friends.

    Hmmmm, might one call it....


    PECAN SPAWN!

    Of course, this only works if you pronounce "pecan" correctly, like pe-KAHN, not PEE-kin.

    Those look yummy. I do like pecan pie, and I put toasted pecans on salads, but I don't think it is at the level of Serge's apparent dysfunctional pron relationship.
