But if you do it every day and never eat a balanced diet, the
likelihood is pretty high that it *will* kill you. Oh, you won't
die from the hamburgers. You'll die from heart disease, a
stroke, colon cancer, or the like. But your poor eating habits
will have been at least partially responsible for your disease.

Moral of the above: Don't use an analogy when the analogy proves
the other person's point.
