The study — soon to be published in the Journal of Research and Personality — confirmed that celebrities are more narcissistic than average Americans.
Why can't they just pay me to tell them that? I mean what could be more important than my opinion anyway?
Maybe it was a hint that they are desparately in need of donated phones.
Freecycle also works.
many governing bodies of various sports impose restrictions based on health concerns, so I think a case could be made that this is similar.
But aren't they about concerns for the particpants, not the audience?
It said the fashion industry had a responsibility to portray healthy body images.
What bullshit. I wonder if tobacco is illegal there.

But aren't they about concerns for the particpants, not the audience?
Yes, but wasn't a lot of the talk on steroid use among baseball players about how it was a bad example for kids, or am I misremembering?
I would love to put stuff on Freecycle, but Hubby objects. If he gives stuff away for free, he wants it to benefit someone he knows, not someone who might just be trolling for freebies that they're going to put in a yard sale or something (his words). He's not much for the generalized good karma, he likes specific good-deed karma. Part of his insanely awesome networking skillz. Maybe I can talk him into targeted karma, putting up stuff that will introduce him to people he can network with later.

And my cynical brain said, "Yeah, and you should believe them?" Sad me. Actually, as old and battered as some of our stuff is--I'm thinking of all the old dishes we threw into the storage shed when we were in "move like you're evacuating!" mode--few people would want to yard sale them.
Someday I must learn to be accepting of people who aren't personal meatspace friends or Buffistas.
