Well, on the bright side, you also get to teach the normal people how to live, laugh, and love. Bad side, you have a 50% chance of shockingly dying while a Bon Iver song wafts through the window.

the sentence was constructed by top scientists to test for retardation. congratulations, you are cancer-proof.

Basically, it's just your average joke about Oscar vehicles about life-affirming magical retards.

I like the 'congratulations, you are cancer-proof' meme, but the Bon Ivor reference doesn't test for retardation, it tests whether you're unhappy that someone is on your lawn.

Well, they do seem pretty happy. The ones I saw in public schools were, at any rate.
