Fans can help you keep cool. |
1) Fans make you cooler.
According to a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), electric fans can help you feel cooler.
Wow! Who would have guessed it!? Oh, so that's what I've been doing wrong! Foolishly, in hot weather I've been turning the radiators on to help me cool down, but it turns out that I should have been using fans instead. Oops, silly me! Lucky those scientists at JAMA were able to point out my error for me. In future I'll know to use fans instead of radiators whenever I want to cool down.
2) Disguise not so super.
Go undercover and fool your friends with this simple disguise. |
"Would Superman's disguise fool anyone?"
Yes, that's right. Scientists at York University conducted tests to see if Superman's disguise would fool anyone. It turns out that wearing glasses wouldn't fool anyone, and any friend of Superman would easily see through the disguise and recognise that Superman and Clark Kent were the same person.
I'd like to personally thank the great scientific minds at York University who brought such an important piece of information into the world. Surely this knowledge will now surely benefit mankind for generations to come.
3) Exercise and dieting leads to weight loss.
Water is wet. |
In another 'surprising revelation' William Haskell of Standford University also found that, "Increasing physical activity - if people control caloric intake - will lead to weight loss."
In other news, water is wet.
4) Drug Wars lead to increased murder rates.
In another piece of amazing scientific insight, a paper published by The American Statistician used statistical analysis to show that the Mexican drug wars led to increased homicide rates.
I'm glad they provided statistical analysis to back up their claims, otherwise I would have been highly dubious. I mean, a drug war leading to increased murder rates!? Surely that can't be right!
5) Quitting smoking after heart attack improves quality of life.
Modern doctors have realised that smoking is bad for you. |
To be fair, this one seems obvious, but I used to work with a lady whose dad (when he was younger, many decades ago) went to the doctor with breathing difficulties, and his doctor recommended that he take up smoking to improve his breathing! That just shows you that it's only a few generations ago that doctors were total idiots.
Thankfully, medical science nowadays is definitely right about everything, and no more medical discoveries will ever be discovered because we definitely already know everything already. /s
6) Men and women are different.
"There are more than two genders" t-shirt. Available for men and women. |
To be fair, in a parallel of a famous scene from George Orwell's 1984, there are an increasing number of brainwashed nutters out there who believe there are seventy two genders*, rather than two. You would think 'male and female' would be the least controversial concept in the world, but it just shows you how messed up the world is right now that some muppets struggle to understand one of the most basic concepts of science.
* Please note, I haven't checked what the current figure is recently, so the total could be even higher by the time you read this.
Not all scientists are idiots, and in fact some scientists are brilliant and have discovered some very interesting things, as illustrated by the blog posts below:
