Not really....its what sells and what we are force fed.

It's what sells because we respond to it more than anyhting else.

Our brains are wired to notice bad poop, because bad poop can kill us... pretty little butterflies... not so much.

Played soccer today after work. I played defensive midfielder as usual.

Got 3 goals all on corners.

First game of the year for our team. won 7-1.

I hate it when defensive midfielders score.... your job is to defend...


My teams used DM's that were more interested in scoring than defending...

Do your job.. break some ankles...

I'm 6'2 and am really fast, I'm the target on our corners, then I scamper back.

Just relay the ACTUAL news. Spare us the spin and theatrics.

Please and thank you.

How many ankles you break yesterday??

yeah, hell.. with 100million you could make it grow.. and in ten years you would have generated enough extra money where if you want to buy a ferrari (cause honestly, that would be fun lol) you could.

Then again it would probably kill me. Liver failure, high speed crash, etc.

No cause bad poop is sensationalized.
We are not wired to only care about bad poop......its the sensory stimulation that attracts us. The producion values media companies put on tragedies (and american elections) goes through the roof when they occur.

Not only bad stuff, but there is more attention devoted to that.

Think about it. If you see a car accident, and a butterfly... which are you going to pay attention to?

A radio's playing classical music, and in the next room people are screaming... where's your attention?

Your brain is programmed to pay more attention to bad situations as a survival mechanism.

Listening to the aunt of these bombers who is in Toronto what a dumb biatch...

She thought they were being framed... yet pictures and video show the douche bag... dropping the bag...

Tits win.

Our brains are wired to ensure the continuation of the species- like all animals.


Sex, food, and danger are pretty high-priority things.
