Dating Advice for Geeks

 

Hello dearest internet nutters and demi-gods alike,

Have you missed me? I'm sure you're bored of me apologising for not being able to blog daily, even my Twitter feed has been running a bit dry as of late, so I'll just crack on with the meaty post, shall I? (Incidentally, vegetarianism is doing well, euphemisms shall continue as normal... normal for me anyway).

This blog post has been brought to you today by the number 4.

The Psychology of Drinking: When PR and Science Collide

[bpsdb] The following is the introduction to a recent BBC piece titled "'Glass hold' reveals personality." I've highlighted the crucial phrase:

The way you hold your glass can reveal much more than you might realise, a psychologist has warned. Dr Glenn Wilson, a consultant psychologist, observed the body language of 500 drinkers and divided them into eight personality types. These were the flirt, the gossip, fun lover, wallflower, the ice-queen, the playboy, Jack-the-lad and browbeater. Dr Wilson, who carried out the work for the Walkabout bar chain, said glass hold "reflected the person you are".

Yes, either Walkabout are now major supporters of science research, or once again we are seeing the effects of 'churnalism' - a press release from some unknown PR company abusing science for promotional ends, recited by media outlets as if it represents some sort of serious research.
