I've been laughing about this all day today! I could have told them these results years ago and I'd have been alot cheaper too :D

This is my favorite part "Professor McIntosh said: ?To minimise the risk of head and neck injury, headbangers should decrease their range of head and neck motion, headbang to slower tempo songs by replacing heavy metal with adult oriented rock, only headbang to every second beat, or use personal protective equipment.?"

A little bit patronising, but still funny none the less. I wonder if they wore their white "scientist" coats to the gigs :lol:

    I know for a fact that what is bad for my health is when my blood pressure rises to extremely dangerous levels from hearing people swearing over this type of idiocy. My heart will fail one day.

    A few months ago a family reunion turned sour when I called my father-in-law an "ignorant ass with with the IQ of a testicle and the discernment of a rabid mule" after he tried to convince me I was a pig for not cleaning my keyboard every week. He read on a newspaper that a study from researchers (read, students with a stupid assignment) on university X revealed keyboards have more germs than a toilet seat and should be cleaned once a week... at least!

    I hate pop-culture! :mad:

    The Daily Mail's subliminal mantra is "I'm afraid of everything".
