Probably more WTF? than LOL.

Transglobal Emporium - Luxury Shed Calendar


I'm not sure there's much hope for the human species.

[Junta]

Now tell me why you googled "shed" as opposed to "young busty women" on the calendar front

[Magathery]

The short answer is the BBC.

A slightly more meandering explanation is that I have the BBC as a home page, and one of it's opening storys was asking why calendars have survived the digital age. And as is usually the way from clicking on a couple of links, I ended up on another web page and was surprised to see a category for "Luxury sheds". Thinking that this would be an interesting hypocrisy, I gave it a click. There was one for caravans, but I didn't click that as I've been having a nice day so far and don't want to rage out too early

As for searching for "young busty women", well I've got red tube for that. And I really don't want to do myself any more damage just yet

Hmmm.... I strongly suspect November is an outside toilet.  I'd complain to trading standards if I cared.

[Berath]

We all need help. Seriously

It was in the Metro.

[Junta]

. When we talk shed calendars THEN we are in trouble....err

Newspapers and their "blame video games for everything" stories..lol

I wonder if people would worry if you spent ALL your time as a recluse in a library? Lol

[Officer Dibble]

RPS wrote about it, both the Metro and the study seem pretty stupid.

[Brahms]

The Metro is devastatingly pointless. Your time on the train is better spent staring vacantly into space.

I have too much free time so its off to the pcc we go. Unfunny stuff ->

Have submitted a complaint under clauses 1i, and 1iii for inaccurate reporting of bad science in the daily mails version of the story. She presents quotes from the discussion section as the papers conclusion rather than the actual conclusion. States that gta has been linked to murders as fact. And generally the paper is scientific garbage. Also threw in a note for the commission about adding a clause to the code of conduct that covers science reporting. Eg, do not quote scientific discussion out of context you are not qualified to evaluate it, report the papers actual conclusions not the discussion section and your own conclusions, acknowledge that under scientific publishing something is not accepted as fact because it is published, it is accepted as fact when its peer reviewed and a ton of other researchers reproduce your results.

Also submitted a comment to the pcc on updating the code to cover scientific reporting maybe claws etc can add their own thoughts in another thread or submit their own comments

There is a growing trend to report poor scientific papers and to misquote statements out of context. I would like the pcc to consider updating the code of conduct with a section dealing with scientific reporting. There are several points I feel need addressing.

1. Quoting from discussion sections of papers must be done with due care, often statements in the discussion section are treated as fact or conclusions by the mainstream press, these sections contain the viewpoints of the science author and discuss possibilities for further lines of research and cannot be drawn on as scientific fact.
2. The conclusion of the paper is given in the conclusion section or the end of the abstract, it is not appropriate to report other parts of the paper as a conclusion, or as a member of the general press to draw your own 'scientific' conclusions.   
3. A study or paper is not regarded as fact by the scientific community because it has been published, it is still merely opinion. It only becomes fact when it has been peer-reviewed and its results reproduced and verified by independent researchers.

[Magathery]

'ave it!

[Torgue]

Unfunny stuff

Then why post it in the LOL thread?

Not sure if this will work, but it's worth a try...
