I remember watching Tokyo Godfathers, I think back in 2004ish? Good stuff.

I will try to watch it again, and see what comes out.

Electrolytes, I'm guessing.

I never actually saw Idiocracy, but was leery of it because the premise sounds like it's basically that of Cyril Kornbluth's classic story "The Marching Morons", an excellently-written tale revolving around a hideous wrong-idea-that-appeals-to-you that bright misfit kids keep rediscovering: oh noes, dumb people are having more babies than smart ones and that's why everyone is getting dumber than me! Stern, authoritative Men of Science should have intervened!

btw, "you" there is used in a generic sense and also as a TMBG quote.

Yeah, I remember reading that back in the day as well.
I was sort of hoping that Idiocracy would be more deep than that, but I am not sure if it is or not.
