The Wake Forest researchers also found that when Rcade scratches his behind it has the same effect!

MIRACULOUS!

So that's why people scratch their ass.

I can't help but think that this kind or research is beginning to give insight as to why acupressure/acupuncture may be efficacious.

Cheers

Ok, they covered the scratch part. Now what about the sniff part?

No doubt scientists will be researching and manipulating this discovery (for Corporate America) to come up with a device or process (microwaves) to "pacify" people who work in boring,dead end,low paying service and factory jobs.

Bonus also for the psychopaths at the CIA who will learn how to use yet another manipulative process to start wars,create havoc and win elections for...Corporate America!

"Brain rewards aggression much like it does sex, food, drugs
New research from Vanderbilt University shows for the first time that the brain processes aggression as a reward--much like sex, food and drugs--offering insights into our propensity to fight and our fascination with violent sports like boxing and football."

This is crazy. Everybody knows that aggression is caused by global warming. The debate is OVER!

So when I scratch my nuts I am combating Global Warming. Hmmm, always willing to do my part...

"So when I scratch my nuts I am combating Global Warming."

Maybe....Zatoitchi will have to consult his scientific swimming pool to confirm that.

LOL

a guy with so much 'data' on global warming offers that up as substantiation of it.

Ever try scratching your nuts while thinking of Jennifer Aniston? Do your part to fight overpopulation

Conversely, scratching your nuts while thinking of Jennifer Aniston could lead to overpopulation!

Not if you scratch them by yourself

consider it foreplay!

I'm starting to consider this thread foreplay

Dumpling1 scratches his head in wonderment.

AntiCadillac;

I bet you are talking about yourself and your job, aren't you? Do you even have a job?

I get the feeling that alot of folks in here do not like "corporate america" and see it as evil. It has been my experience that these people would be liberals who have made some bad life and educational choices. I think that these folks are either cronically unemployeed or lack the education to get out of their dead end jobs. They try to blame their pathetic lot in life on the corporations. and want big government to take of them by takng from the well-to-do and giving to them.

Where's Robin Hood when we need him?

RETNLVNIT
We just want the corporations and the government to give back what they took from us in the first place, our jobs, our soverignty, our laws etc.

IGY, please explain the soveriginty and laws part to me.

Nobody owes you a job.
