Here, have some irony...and some chips, the chips are quite good. Would you like some bean dip with those?


Okay, so I don't have any chips. But you should have guessed that since we are not yet in a Star Trek-like-future where I could beam you some chips. Even if we were, I don't know that the bean dip would maintain its consistency after being throughout the beaming process, and and who wants runny bean dip? So forget the chips. But here's some irony I found in the pocket of those jeans that I haven't washed since last August, two articles on how you should stop staring at screens all the time because it screws up your ability to remember what the heck you were reading in the first place:

Tell your gym to turn off that MTV

So five neuroscientists get on a raft...no really...

Thanks to EnderEnder for these links.

First of all, that picture is freeeaaaaaakkky!
Second, those articles are awesome. I admit I felt calmer just reading them. Those things they were saying is partly why I've been so resistant to cell phones and iPads, smart phones, etc. I don't want to become dependent on them. I'm already bad enough with my email.
Of course, here I am commenting on your blog instead of writing my paper which stresses me to no end. Irony...

Do you still have bean dip left?
