A short list of WTF
MPAA Admits Mistake on Downloading Study. They can't even figure out how to analyze and report their findings. How do they expect us to also swallow their dire predictions about the Death Of The Music Industry OMG Tragedy Tragedy Ruin Ruin?
Yesterday I was sitting in my office during lunch, feeling winded after running the stairs. You know how you have those "Wow I'm not so bright" moments? I had one of those. I suddenly realized that for the next few months at least, I have an office--with a door. That I can close. There is absolutely no reason I can't shut the door and do some push-ups and sit-ups (on my yoga ball, even!) after I run the stairs. It took me how long to clue in on this? Too long. Waaaaay too long.
Another news item: Bush, aides made 935 false statements in run-up to war. Assuming the people who analyzed this report knew how to do basic math, I have to ask: Why is this asshole (along with the rest of his cabinet) not being called on the carpet? I mean, Clinton got impeached over a goddamned blow job. This dickweed we've got in the Oval Office lied about starting a war but nobody seems too concerned about it. Whaaa? Oh, and to make it even better--the top news headline on CNN at the same time this article premiered? Guess.
Shoot. Me.
And now, something more lighthearted, a meme from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

_luaineach. Your brain: 120% interpersonal, 100% visual, 80% verbal, and 100% mathematical!
Congratulations on being 400% smart! Actually, on my test, everyone is. The above score breaks down what kind of thinking you most enjoy doing. A score above 100% means you use that kind of thinking more than average, and a score below 100% means you use it less. It says nothing about how good you are at any one, just how interested you are in each, relatively. A substantial difference in scores between two people means, conclusively, that they are different kinds of thinkers.
Matching Summary: Each of us has different tastes. Still, I offer the following advice, which I think is obvious:
- Don't date someone if your interpersonal percentages differ by more than 80%.
- Don't be friends with someone if your verbal percentages differ by more than 100%.
- Don't have sex with someone if their math percentage is over 200%.

I have been asking this question for a few years now. So far, no one is answering. Oh, except for the lame-ass "We don't want to create more blah-blah-blah bipartisan strife blah-blah ... support the troops!"
