Serious answer: Some scientists said in the late 90s/early 00s that e-numbers (the mostly artificial colours and flavours approved for use within the EU, though the term solely meaning artificial is misleading since even oxygen has an E number) were in fact causing kids to go nuts and have behavioural issues.

It's been largely considered a steaming pile of crap for a while though. Hell, google something along the lines of "are e-numbers bad" and there's more results either saying "No" or "No evidence has been produced to say they are" than "MAH KID'S BRAIN!"

it's still lingering at the edges, we've still got this recently published book in our library collection:



(Translation: Watch Out! Danger! - WHAT'S IN YOUR FOOD? - the guide that stops you from poisoning yourself)

...and if anyone says crap about how public libraries/books are infintely more trustworthy than books, I always point to our stacks full of pseudo-science. I should post a greatest hits.

I mean, even if you believe in God... you really think God is pro-'mericuh, and spends his time making the sky look like one country's flag? It's such a petty, small-minded conception of God.

Uh, if you believe in god then it kind of does look like he painted the American flag in the sky there. I'm neither American nor Christian and that was still the first thing I thought when I saw the picture.

I suspect the colours may have been tweaked a little (heavily) to get the red, white and blue, but it's a nice example of pareidolia.

Seriously, I get what you're saying, but that's a loving terrible impression of a flag to attribute to an all-powerful deity. Besides, there are clearly 57 stars in the flag.

Linked for lots of :words: - I posted a "yay Wendy Davis/DOMA overturn/prop8 overturn" status last week, and my friend of 30 years decides this is the perfect place to voice her right-wing opposition to everything in the world. It just went downhill from there.

Dramatis Personae:
Purple - me
Blue - aforementioned childhood friend
Red - my former boss, card-carrying complete tool
Orange - my libertarian gun nut ex/friend/computer guy
Green - goon friend from work

Yellow and black don't really count, they're minor players - it should be mentioned that yellow is my current boss, and previously red's boss, though.

"Ligeria"? That's a country in Europe, isn't it?

Also, yes I do want to think of her putting on her country for the window cleaner because apparently I'm a self-centered piece of poo poo who doesn't buy presents for others without first carefully considering how it will affect me.
So, there's a good chance that my wife would be much better off with him than with me.

That said, yeah, you probably shouldn't be buying lingerie for anyone if you don't know what size/brand they wear and what colors and styles they prefer. The rest is all misogynistic drivel though. Who the hell would respond to a gift of lingerie with "OMG YOU'RE HAVING AN AFFAIR??"

I'll grant them one thing, that's at least one of the more believable, direct and stable conspiracy theory I've heard in a long time. I mean it's still stupid and crazy, but there's at least a direct line of reasoning that can be followed.

This is more a penalty against everyone else, though. We've reached the point where I have to start granting concessions for conspiracy theorists.
