I’m going to do the reddit thing and say the title was ackshually “To Serve Man”, but the reason I mention it is that the pun works much better with the uncountable noun “Man” than the countable plural “Humans”, because it’s more like how we speak of most types of meat, as an anonymous, indifferent material (lamb, beef, pork, chicken), and I think that’s kind of interesting.

I was attempting to riff on the name of “Health and Human Services” but “human” probably still would’ve worked better than “Humans”
