We put off eating the chocolate we keep in our drawer for a few minutes, telling ourselves we are virtuous and can resist, but then after staring mindlessly at yet another spreadsheet or annoying email from a colleague, we think "Oh, fuck it. I am just going to eat a few of these M&Ms. I'll be good starting tomorrow." Well, now science seems to have discovered a neat little trick to help you eat a little bit less of that sanity candy starting today. According to new research out of the University of Exeter, if you take a short walk, you'll eat less chocolate. More »

Thanks to several intrepid readers, we now have a copy of "A Woman's History of Vaginal Orgasm is Discernible from Her Walk," the study we discussed earlier today. As you might expect, it's chock-full of obnoxious. The study opens with a quote from Virgil: "The goddess was discovered by her gait." As if the idea of trained sexologists rating your walk wasn't creepy enough, this quote basically invites us to view the study as a method for identifying "sex goddesses." Meaning: women who orgasm from peen alone, because other women are lesser in all sorts of ultra-scientific ways! More »
