I would like the 12 minutes I spent watching this video of my life back.

She claims that people with less than average interocular distances, and people with beady eyes don't like to be interrupted, and don't like people turning in their assignments tardy. Well, who does like being interrupted, and who does like receiving work late? Beady eyes or not, I don't know anyone who welcomes interruption when they are concentrating on a task.

Cant see how this is not just a new tabloid version of frenology. Its frightening to see that a serious site as fora.tv can post this pseudo science material in this format.

That is not true! In my studies in Graduate school I found the research article that proved the prior theory of a gene for alcoholism was FALSE. Amazingly (or not!) that article received barely any media attn, whereas the original (incorrect) paper received a TON of media. This often happens in science reporting, I'm afraid, which leaves lay people without the entire, correct, understanding of a given issue. I so wish this were NOT the case!

There is NO gene for alcoholism.

Well, her face analysis got me spot on anyway, hooey or not. I wonder what Derren Brown would say about this?
