For what it's worth, I'd expect we've now probably seen peak 'couch-potatoe' (wah..) not that there aren't scads of folks out there that still try to play the part. ie, It's not always really easy to tell when a sloth has turned a corner in his life, and whether it was witting or otherwise.. 'you have to examine these things in great -detail.' (Ben Knox, in Local Hero)
