Psychology is all in your mind.

If you can't replicate results I say if definitely is not. How many psychological "studies" are based on survey data? That's about as reliable as a Magic 8 Ball.

Not that long ago the Psych world was gaga over lobotomy, autism was Freudian based (mother withholding love from the child. Congrats, your kid had autism and you have guilt), and shock was all the rage.

Psychologist are like Emily Litella, “Never mind”.

Everything I learned about psychology I learned from The Sopranos or the idiots who freaked out thinking the Psych 101 textbooks talked about them.
