Fitter, happier, more productive Comfortable (Not drinking too much) Regular exercise at the gym (Three days a week) Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries At ease Eating well (No more microwave dinners and saturated fats) A patient, better driver A safer car (Baby smiling in back seat) Sleeping well (No bad dreams)

Exercise doesn't have to be at the gym. You can do fairly high level calisthenics with a weighed bag and/or Olympic rings Excellent books on the topic like Your Body is Your Gym, Overcoming Gravity, and Paul Wade's ultimate isometrics.

  In case you missed GP’s sarcasm, this is the beginning of the lyrics to Radiohead’s Fitter Happier.[1] To give you the general tenor of the piece’s downwards spiral, the song finishes with: Like a cat Tied to a stick That's driven into Frozen winter shit (The ability to laugh at weakness) Calm Fitter, healthier and more productive A pig In a cage On antibiotics [1] https://genius.com/Radiohead-fitter-happier-lyrics https://genius.com/Radiohead-fitter-happier-lyrics

No ofense to you in the slightest but your comment made me think of the darkest of dystopias. Re-reading it and getting to the "A patient, better driver" part I had to think of an un-patient, bad driver to sort of erase that feeling from my head, the best I could find was this scene with Harvey Keitel in "Bad Lieutenant" [1]. It also helps that I'm a Mets fan and, as such, we are almost never happy. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir8Y4iFrWk8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir8Y4iFrWk8

  I think you're missing the fact that these are the 'lyrics' to Radiohead's "Fittier Happier", which is absolutely intended to convey a distopia.

    I certainly missed that, thanks for the illuminating me.
