A musclehead co-worker is talking to someone on the phone about nutritional supplements:

“It changes the metabolism of the . . . en-DOC-rine? . . . EN-do-CREEN? . . . system, so it releases more testosterone.”

In fact, you should go to the vitamin store right now and just gobble up everything they’ve got.

Did you ever read Alice in Wonderland? She finds a cake that says EAT ME so she eats it. Next thing you know she’s nine feet tall. Draw your own parallels . . .
