It's like that Upright Citizens' Brigade sketch where the Christiian Camp coundelor keeps punishing himself until someone confesses that they drank all the bug juice.

Hey, at least they are paying us now, as opposed to spraying without asking, even after they knew what dangers were posed by these pesticides. I can't wait to see what kind of people this attracts. You'd think that after judging the intelligence before they moved in, the scientists would wonder if the families could get any dumber. Don't forget, though, that DDT trucks used to drive very slowly through neighborhoods in the South in the summertime, and kids would run behind and not wash for a few days just so that they could prolong the repelling effects of the DDT.
