Yesterday, when over at my cousin's, we were about to watch some DVDs, and I brought a selection to watch:
One Night at McCool's
The Terminator (Special Edition)
The Wicker Man
Ghosts of Mars (Special Edition)
See Spot Run
Valentine
and
The Taylor of Panama (Special Edition).
So, I read the titles and descriptions to the group, trying to find something that everybody wanted to watch.
Well, one of them chimed in that she "didn't want to watch any of that Sci-Fi stuff." So, I had to ask "Why?" What did she have against Sci-Fi?
Her Answer: "It's not real. I hate stuff that's not real. We're never going to do stuff like that."
So I said, what do you mean, it's not real. Aren't we exploring space now? Haven't we landed probes on Mars, and some of the other planets?
Her response: "Yeah, but we shouldn't be doing that. It's all a waste of money. We should be spending all that money down here, where it will do some good."
FYI, she's in healthcare.
