Holy christ.

Once I watched all 20 episodes of the first season of Gilmore Girls in one weekend. It was a lot of couch time, for sure. But thankfully, my skin didn't become one with the couch fabric:

Oh my God, I am going to the club tomorrow.I don't get the logistics of it.How did she go to the bathroom?Or eat,or shower?Did she wear the same outfit?How does your skin graft to a couch.

I have spent a lot of time watching TV in my life. I did a long stint watching Star Trek all over a 3 day or so period. Nevertheless I can not understand how anyone could stay on their couch for so long and allow themselves to rot away like this.

Even if Star Trek were on for 24 hours a day I couldn't stay on the couch all the time.

One of the articles I read said that the smell in the room was overwhelming and that they had to vent it or something, so I doubt that personal hygiene was at the top of her priorities.

They had to blast in fresh air. How could that man & those kids live there with that smell? The picture of her on the couch is disturbing & heartbreaking.

This is just too disgusting. She was 4'10" tall and almost 500 pounds. If you love someone don't you think you would say something like, "you know, most people use a toilet when they have to go." Or maybe "get up and get the goddamn remote yourself, you lazy twit." or even perhaps "You peed where?" God I thought I was lazy.

I want to feel sorry for this woman but how can you feel sorry for someone who's self respect is so low they would rather poop their pants then go to the bathroom?

I am seriously not trying to be funny but at what point does a person spiral so out of control they say..."I guess I will just poop here"she wasin't always grafted to the coutch.What was she thinking the first day she didin't move.Or the second.I wonder if she knew she was grafted to the couch or if she never bothered to move to even realize it.And excuse me they are looking into neglect?Um is someone allowing the kid's to stay with that freaky freak of a man.I mean fine you can't move her but can you call to tell someone whats up? "ummmm Gail pooped her pants today we need some kind of intervention."

The police are investigating the neglect issue.

I bet this sort of thing happens all the time. Specially now with Digital Cable and TiVo. Why would you get up from the couch?
