Sleep disturbed

[blackstone]

I had a fascinating evening at a goodbye thingie for my dear friend & coworker who is moving to AZ. My company has a policy of hiring embryos from MIT as managers; the MIT vs life-experienced manager debates were fascinating. I hate the Spreadsheet Posse. Bunch of overpaid case-study wankers

Actually, the study sounds bad on the surface...but there are several ways to interpret it. While some people tried to say that friends copy each other's behavior, according to a doc a Harvard, "It's more likely that being exposed to overweight people creates a new standard of acceptable body size." In other words, have chubby friends means you'll be more accepting of those of us who are not-so-skinny. So, I don't really see it as a bad thing. 8^D

But they're also trying to say we're then more accepting of poor eating habits. Now who wants a spoonful of Crisco?

[quixote82]

Not necessarily. Some people are, but that Harvard guy I quoted seems to be disagreeing with that interpretation.

[quixote82]

Also, a lot of "bad eating habits" are relative.

Oh for fuck's sake!

Which one of you clowns did this one?
