Apparently – now wait for it, wait for it – a sedentary lifestyle is gonna make us pop our clogs early.
Thing is, it is as bad as smoking! Get thee behind me Satan.
A lack of exercise is now causing as many deaths as smoking across the world, a study suggests.
Ah, right… “a study suggests” As you were, then…
*Shock horror*…………yet there’s still little to rival going into hospital.
Start a massive advertising campaign publicising the 250 deaths per week…. courtesy of the NHS…. and it might be enough to get grandma to take up jogging, ya think ?
Minimum pricing on sofas! Down with Big TV!
On a more serious note, I bet that at least one of these ‘studies’ will call for remote controls to be banned.
:O blasphemy !
Not fussed on tv as such but the in-built media player in the huge flatscreen that I can hook any hard drive up to…filled to bursting with fave tv series galore… is my most prized possession.
They’ll hafta pry the remote from my cold dead fingers 🙂
People are so frightened by all these ‘studies’ saying this and that are a dangerous as an unmarked minefield that they elect to huddle in their own homes in front of the scaremongering idiot box, and this is what happens. Serve ’em all right.
I can’t wait to see how the Tobacco Control lot take this. Either they have to accept it wholeheartdly or make it as as fake science. Eithey way they’re fucked. If they accept then they spoil their long game of not doing big jumps in their push to control. They always do it slowly bit by bit so that the public don’t realise they’ve been out flanked. But if they say it’s fake science then they open themselves to the same point – that their facts aren’t that right either.
