Study on fruit

So, we actually spent money to find out if a fruit cocktail is a healthy food? WTF!!!!!!

Oh yay, more encouragement for people to drink

ah come on artemis, it only kills brain cells.

Cool--I always knew all those margaritas I drank in Las Vegas were really health food. This restores my faith in science -- NOT.

I'd like to add that calling anything "healthy food" is a lousy idea as it inspires people to increase the dosage to an unhealthy amount etc

Oh you hadn't heard the one where scientists found out that rats are ticklish...a coworker told us this...this is where our tax money goes.

nope. Iraq and training people to kill and/or disrespect human rights in other ways is where you tax money goes.

Analysing rats is legitimate use of taxes. Useful stuff, science, especially the broad group of biology and medicine which this falls under.

so what do the rats do? go squee! when they laugh?

It's hard to describe the sound my coworker made when describing it, but I think he saw this on YouTube. Shame that he believes everything he sees on YouTube is true...but I need to see for myself!

I like to believe that fruit cocktail is only fattening when overloaded with huge amounts of whipped topping. And what's the point of eating it without the whipped topping?

I don't know how you found it, but thanks because I never would have! That was definitely...um...informative!
