    Seriously, why should I give a shit about that at this point? Any information I put into this app they could easily get from Google.

      I guess we should just all lie down and die.

      Honestly, this is one of the saddest and scariest comments I’ve read in a while.

      “I’ve already had one McDonald’s burger that’s bad for me, I may as well only ever eat McDonald’s burgers! Why should I care at this point?”
