Does anyone remember a movie or TV show episode in which a character, accused of cynicism, possibly while eating a bowl of ice cream in an #icecream shop, replies: "I'm not cynical about ice cream."?

Is that a real line from a real movie (or TV show), or am I just making #movies in my head (like, all the time, they're usually better than what's showing at the Mongo-plex)?

My grandson is not cynical about ice cream.

Diogenes, in accord with his #Cynic philosophy, would not be #cynical about ice cream in our sense of the word. He would enjoy the hell out of it.

Today don't look so bad
Compared to tomorrow
If time is all we have
Then we're living on borrowed
Yesterday's for fools
Who try to, try to remember
Try to remember
The good ol' days
Weren't always that much better

'Coz I'm a #cynical fuck
Well, I ain't nothing but a cynical fuck
It don't take much to be a cynical
All you need is love
All you need is what to be

Whereas false negatives are less likely to have negative consequences *for the platform* because users will simply assume original advice was fine but symptoms have changed.

And health services don't usually ask: Why didn't you come in earlier? So they will never spot the impact of the platform.

OK, I am very #cynical. But nothing like this is launched without conscious choices about weighting false negatives vs positives.

Cradle To The Grave

Dedicated to those with breeder parents that couldn't rush fast enough to have babies but then emotionally neglect their child, domesticate their child out of being a functional independent adult, and then one day decide that they don't care if you live or die.

People with healthy family lives do not interact.
