    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Down With Love would be high on my list of most underappreciated comedies of all time, right up there with Hot Rod, Death to Smoochy, Monkeybone, and Austin Powers 2.
