I don't believe it. I'll have to test this theory.


If I'm not back in a week don't come looking for me.

"It's the responsibility of drivers to ensure that when they are behind the wheel they keep their eyes on the job in hand," says a spokeswoman from Brake

They could have worded that another way, but nooooooo...

Well, if no one can read the post under this one, we have proof:

Proof that on Ann Coulter threads it's always bad luck to have your reply appear just after her photo. Sigh.

“emotion-induced blindness”

In my neck of the woods, we call it a brain fart.

[Izzy Dunne]

Most of the images were landscape or architectural scenes, but the psychologists included a few emotionally charged images, portraying violent or sexually provocative scenes.

“We observed that people failed to detect visual images that appeared one-fifth of a second after emotional images, whereas they can detect those images with little problem after neutral images,” Zald says.

Is it possible that, if someone is watching tree after building after tree after building after tree go by, that ANYTHING ELSE causes this same reaction?

Maybe a picture of a rutabaga would do the same thing, after trees and buildings.

Is it possible that it's just freakin' BOREDOM setting in?

Now I know why
when I log onto my fav porno site all I see is a blank screen.

Maybe I could sue the site operator for emotionally induced blindness. Yeah, that's the ticket. I'm just a victim of your porno site. Gimme my money. :)

Ocassionally I'd go to the news stand and I'd see a guy picking out a stack of porn mags, and he really does look blind.

Look at old pumpkin legs (Hillary Klintoon) for a second and already you'll be blind.
