Caffeine

The daily grind and then some

What a Joke!

, , ,

I'm up and awake and doing the usual morning stuff - like reading the paper and I've got to share this one with you.

Being the last day of the year, there are always stories, videos and highlights of the past events. Sorry to be saying - but here comes a low point from the scientific community.

This little article comes from the department of blatantly obvious and yet - tax payer dollars funded these studies.

For example according to a recent study: "Women don’t like to be told they look fat" Okay, so I learned something from this study, any idiot can get a grant from the government.

A national survey found 68% of men have lied when asked by a woman: “Do I look fat in this?” The other 32% of respondents were said to have recently been dumped by their girlfriends or wives.



If you are up for a laugh, then be sure to check out The National Post for more of the truly obvious.

Getting fired is disappointing

Takes the Cake!

A TV network once blew a whole load of cash taking surveys. The object of the survey? "Should the swimsuit round in beauty contests be removed?"
Reportedly, no self respecting straight male said no..... P:

If it's not obvious, it's not worth saying twice.

What a huge waste of tax payer dollars.

Good for a laugh though - I'm sure some comedian can turn this all into a routine. Why not share it with everyone?

I've seen that swimsuit type survey before - and you are 100% correct - what man would want that gone? Geez you'd almost think these people had no grasp of reality.
