AWESOME. Now I have an excuse for being dumb! XD I hope I get to blame it on online forumming (especially CAA hahaha), chatting, blogging and the 101 other things I do in cyberspace as well.

Scientists are cool guys, they make studys about the most trivial things to give us some trivia for work and/or school.

We should be thanking these guys!

I'm taking the lack of response as a yes. Bye bye computer, hello Miracle Grow and a "special" flower garden in the backyard.

Ugh. This scientist in training: Distracted people can't focus, well duh! Didn't need a study to tell me that! Besides, one study means nada to those of us with any knowledge of statistics. Lets see what a few more have to say.

Hey, today was case in point proving them spot on. Every 20 minutes someone would pop onto IM and post something weird like, "Hey! I DYED MY HAIR!!!" *glares at volt* Between that and a massive dose of "holy handgrenades the spam filter is generating false postives!!!" I nearly got a meeting scheduled today.

(If you actually got all the references above, you have my deepest condolences).
