Celebrity-obsessed people are less intelligent, new study boldly claims https://t.co/pdgknGbp2T pic.twitter.com/U8vnC8h89m

a study published late last year states that "there is a direct association between celebrity worship and poorer performance on cognitive tests" measuring both literacy and numeracy

ok but it seems a little biased to only include a vocabulary test and a math test and not a test on how many b-list celebrities the people in the study can recognize.

my best friend is a doctor making mid six figures a year, but i can name the main cast of riverdale and she can't. so who's the real winner here?

I haven’t watched a teen drama since the early 00s and I’m the only one in my middle aged friend group who knows who Sabrina Carpenter is, what she looks like and that she is Gen Z’s Becky with the blonde hair.

MFTE I will tell you who Kay fucking Panabaker is. I will tell you the fucking difference between Dylan McDermott and Dermot Mulroney. I will tell you ALL about Orlando Jones, Orlando Brown, Orlando Bloom, I am fucking SMART.

WHAT is this photo, that cannot be Clive Owen?? Either he's aging TERRIBLY or I don't actually know who Clive Owen is and am picturing a younger version of someone else??

NOPE, have Googled, Clive Owen is who I thought he was so this picture is SHOCKING.

Damn, Africa, what happened?

What in the holy ombré happened to this hombre?

dylan mcdermott is forever etched in my mind as the person on ahs: murder house who cried and masturbated at the same time. idk why his face is so vivid but the laughs I let out to this day... amazing

the other one is always the older actress' love interest that we're all supposed to find hot but kind of looks like if robert pattinson and george clooney had a cursed lovechild

hahaha to me Dermot Mulroney is the grungier dude (I remember him from young guns) and Dylan McDermott gets cast more as like "the lawyer" type characters. (I think he was the boyfriend in Steel Magnolias) I could of course have them switched. I'm sure ONTD will tell me.

[doncheadle]

omg wait why did I think the steel magnolias man was clive owen? ontdu continues teaching me even in the off hours! take that conventional education!

[eomir]

Yep, Dylan was in Steel Magnolias and Dermot was in My Best Friends Wedding. In case you are using the 'who's been in a Julia Roberts movie' metric.

OH MY GOD how did I never realize he was Jackson??
