Things That Make You Chuckle

ngghhhhhhh

inhales deeply, calms down

While my heritage cuisine is “grill a freshly sliced fish steak, drizzle it with rosemary, lemon and olive oil” there’s enough geographical proximity for me to be incredibly offended by mentioning ajvar in the same sentence with waves angrily THAT concoction (propylene glycol alginate WTF is that).

Ajvar has only three ingredients - red peppers, sunflower oil and salt. That’s it. It should be consumed by spreading it on freshly grilled pork or veal, preferably cut into cubes and skewered.

Rant over.

Econ at its finest

There’s another paper that uses the finger ratio thing as a proxy for test levels

Ahh, one of those examples of trying to use math to prove something we all already know - CEOs tend to have narcissistic traits…

I need to start making up crap to apply math too where I already know the outcome. Maybe I can get published.

I am not sure on this one. I’ve seen stuff that seems pretty reputable on it. IIRC, the finger ratio thing is an indicator of androgen exposure in the womb. It doesn’t necessarily predict adult Testosterone levels. I think one needs to make the assumption that high androgens in the womb will correlate to certain attributes in adulthood (which I don’t think is too much of a stretch?).

IIRC, autistic people usually have a low ratio (high androgen exposure in the womb). Autism has been called an extreme male mind by a few experts. Pro athletes are usually have low ratios. Traits seen as masculine are generally displayed more by people with low ratios, and vice versa. Of course, exceptions to the rule do occur.

Finally! My favorite phrase has a graphic.

Cats don’t like me and I don’t like them.

As long as they stay away from me - we are good.

Potato cat came to kick ass and cuddle with squishy pillow, and she’s all out of ass.

This creature actually tries to snuggle a running vacuum cleaner.

I’m not a cat person either, though I have some feral cats in the yard. (Assholes dump them in my neighborhood) This one looks like he means business though.

Unfortunate camera snap for the reaction all straight men would have in this situation.

I don’t blame him for even a split second.

Its just that he projects such a refined image, I wouldn’t expect him to be caught in a “DAMN…!” candid shot like that.
