[There's no getting around it. It's an essay. About the dangers of sugar abuse on your health, linked to several medical articles. In it, she links the abuse of sugar to depression, diabetes, dopamine imbalances, fueling cancer cells and making tumors more aggressive, impotence, increased risk of heart attacks and heart disease, increased inflammation leading to joint pain and arthritis, increased risk of strokes, kidney failure, and rotting teeth.

Included in her essay is a list of signs of sugar abuse, including false teeth, rotten teeth, pupil dilation, jitteriness, mid-afternoon 'crashes', and other symptoms.

She wraps up with a plea for people to seek help and rehabilitation for their addictions and avoid anyone who might try to push such addictive substances on them.

Does that ever work? Like if I stood up and said, I go by Rob, nobody'd listen.

I'm so going to get you back for this. Somehow. I was hoping I could stay under Tucker's radar with the name thing until all this was over but noooo. Now I'm never going to hear the end of it.

[Goddamit, he hasn't talked to Tucker much but he's heard enough about him and seen enough of his dumb conversations to know he's never going to let this go.]

[ Robbie doesn’t really know the extent to which Tucker is Tucker, so this is an unintended consequence, but it’s such a normal reaction that it makes him feel guilty about how he and Grif are thinking he’s acting weird. Maybe they’re the ones bring weird. ]

I’m sorry, Rich. I didn’t mean for it to be a permanent thing. This Tucker guy… I mean, I could do a full five minutes on his name. It might shut him up?
