You Mad Bro?

Nick Steele 1 Comment

Have you been on edge lately? For example, you specifically ordered your Mocha Frappe with a shot of Vanilla and when you take that first wonderful thirst quenching, ice cold sip you realize that they FORGOT it! Now usually this is a forgivable offense but not TODAY! For some reason you begin to contemplate the ways you can chop up the baristas body after you brutally murder her behind the coffee shop with a spork…just me? Let’s move on. The reason for this could be blamed on the heat outside. For years we have used the excuse “oh sorry, I didn’t mean to kick your cat but it’s just so hot outside that I’m a little tempermental lately” Well good news for you cat kickers! Science has totally got your back on this.

I Am Irresistible To The Ladies

Now these are the kind of stories I like to find on the web! A survey by YourTango.com asked people what makes people of the opposite sex irresistible.  Surprisingly, both men and women agreed that physical appearance WASN’T the most important thing.  Sense of humor was voted the quality that makes people irresistible.  Self-confidence was next.  That doesn’t mean that women completely ignore physical features on guys.  For years the ladies have flocked to my side in hopes to catch a glimpse of my attention. Well that’s the way I see it anyway, they could have just been around because they were trying to win some prize I wasn’t going to give to them on the radio. Or because they thought I was their ‘bestie” when really I had other plans. Either way they flocked ok? Thanks to this survey I finally know why, I can put a BIG OL’ check mark next to the 3 key features that the ladies look for in guys. How do you qualify? Check the stats after the jump!

Your Shoes HATE You.

Yes, I do really own Superman Converses. Don’t judge me….or DO judge me? Maybe this is why the ladies love the shoes so much (I’ll never understand women). According to a new study, people can tell A LOT about you just from your shoes. It’s sounds like a stereotype thing but in this case their judgements are 90% right. In this study from Kansas City they showed that you can tell someone’s age, gender, income, political beliefs and personality traits all by their SHOES! Before you go and call “shenanigans” read how they do it after the jump!

Facebook KNOWS You!

Although you may watch what you say or do on Facebook because of your job (Tell me about IT!) it still may give your employers more information about you than you originally thought.

Researchers from Northern Illinois, the University of Evansville, and Auburn found that looking at people’s Facebook pages for just ten minutes could predict how well they’d do on the job.

They had people in Human Resources look at the Facebook pages of job applicants and grade them on traits like intellectual curiosity, conscientiousness, agreeability, and whether they were extraverted.

After six months on the job, supervisors evaluated the candidates on the same traits . . .
