You are clearly a Charlie and Lola fan (or your children are). I have to admit, its the one programme on Cebeebies I will happily watch without the children in the room. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=32612#post-92928 Thu, 27 Oct 2011 03:54:48 +0000 4ty2 92928@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Is it odourless by quantummechanical recombination or does it cause limitless self love as a possible sideeffect. Guess targeting the narcissist market is more acceptible than mentioning the non-heterosexuals. Anyhow, looks like it makes you see stars </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=32612#post-92864 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 16:38:21 +0000 dvo4fun 92864@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>'ave some stars </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=32612#post-92816 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 11:36:41 +0000 jp1885 92816@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I'll see what I can do about that VCG, but don't expect miracles!

Things have got quite bad here, they keep putting stuff I've written on the FP, which is a sorry state of affairs. Something really must be done. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=32612#post-92807 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 11:18:28 +0000 jp1885 92807@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>@Golgo - Gut, danke. I haven't flounced off or anything, just having a break from biscuitery while I pursue other, geekier hobbies, but I've had this idea floating around for a while and had 10 minutes to spare so...</p> <p>@Perks - thanks for that! Damn spellcheck for not knowing what I meant to write! </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=32612#post-92803 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 11:03:53 +0000 Perks 92803@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Like it, and not one mistake!

Bringing such two efficacious compounds together should have created a formidable aphrodisiac, but in fact it’s exactly the opposite – the two deodorants actually cancel each other out, forming a pheromonal vacuum.’</p> <p>Sorensen recently revealed his motivation in the quest for unattractiveness: ‘being a tall, blonde Scandinavian who works out regularly is a major hindrance when it comes to the serious world of medical science – have you ever tried searching for a cure for cancer when all your assistants keep swooning at you? This new discovery is the holy grail for attractive scientists such as myself – I can now get on with my important work without having to fend off awkward misunderstandings from Barry in genetics.’</p> <p>However many have accused Sorensen and his team of playing God and meddling in matters which no man aught. ‘What’s wrong with a stranger impulsively buying a woman flowers?’ asked fellow scientist Professor Sheila Dunn. ‘I certainly wouldn’t complain – it’s not easy to meet a man when you spend most of your life crouched over a mass spectrometer. The last person to buy me flowers was my mother after my team failed to make the qualifying stages of University Challenge.’</p> <p>Others have blasted the research as ‘hokum’, claiming that the discovery has nothing to do with medical science but is merely an unconscious reaction to hygiene product advertising. ‘It’s very sad that such an eminent scientist could be so easily swayed by two well-known advertisement campaigns,’ said TV physicist Dr. Brian Cox. ‘It only goes to show that even some of our most brilliant minds are just as susceptible to product placement as ordinary people. How far the mighty have fallen: I have nothing but pity for the man – simples.’ </p>
