I'll tell you what, folks.
Maybe I'm in this shit for results.
Placebo or not, I'm in this shit for results.
Give me a hologram cock ring and let me think that this shit makes my dick work better.
And it probably will make my dick work better.
Placebo?
Just like everybody else.
We're fucking dumb.
Did I tell you about the study on placebos?
You did, and that's one of the reasons why I brought that up.

Tell me.
They did a study.

They did a study on just placebo effects per se.
So they gave people what they told them was a placebo.
They're in the control group for a low blood pressure heart medication, something like that.
But they told them, we're only giving you the placebo.
And it still affected our blood pressure.
