why does the Times keep printing bullshit like this? it really boggles my mind. i was going to write a post about this the last time they wrote a similarly inane article about some scientists who, after spending lots of money and time researching, had come to the conclusion that people who were madly in love and had their hearts broken were dangerous. thanks, guys. now, the shocking news that people laugh as a social instinct! oh my god, sherlock. wait, so in some situations people laugh at things that aren't that funny? nooo.
does sarcasm work in a blog? i'm not gonna do it anymore. also, did you guys know that the character of House in the tv show House is based on Sherlock Holmes? You know, the whole hating people but liking to solve the mystery thing. And the name is an allusion- House sounds like Home. Homes. Holmes. I've been watching a bit of it, though its kind of tough because we like to watch things in marathons, that is very intensive 1-2 week periods where we go through 4 or 5 seasons of a show. And after about 3 or 4 episodes of House, you sort of want to give up. on life. so where does that leave us? instead we've switched to Prison Break, which Dandan told me a million times that I had to watch, because it is soooo good. no. no, it's not. i think she just likes the main guy. which is fair enough, because he is a handsome dude.
