WTF?

[conuly]

Seriously, when did real life become like something out of a bad sci-fi movie? Please don't answer with such replies as "1984", thanks.

I need to stop reading the news. And to get out of this universe. Anybody making progress moving between parallel worlds? Maybe I can get a group of us, go someplace where sentience didn't evolve. Of course, we'd take plenty of domesticated animals, plants, not to mention ready-packaged supplies. And books, lots of books.

It has even been suggested that the spray could be used as a therapy for trust-diminishing conditions, such as autism or some social phobias.

Wait. I thought people with ASDs are often characterized as naive and overly trusting? So this should help us be more likely to lose money to strangers and stuff, and this is a good thing?

That was my reaction. If somebody's not trusting, maybe it's because most of the time, people show themselves to not be trustworthy...? Like they ask stupid questions as a set-up for mocking you? Or they... nevermind.

Absolute anti-stranger paranoia, in some cases to the point that they are almost uncontrollable if their care giver passes away.
