Do you have a catchphrase? What is it? Or do you know anyone who has one?
OR as inspired by bartleby - give us the catchphrase and we have to guess the b3tan
Alt: I am v smug after a long run (these things are all relative) last night. What was the last exercise you did, eh?

I went swimming yesterday.
45 minutes of just nonstop freestyle, backstroke and breaststroke.
I don't have a catchphrase, but I do have the beginnings of a migraine.

"I don't have a catchphrase"
It's not the best catchphrase, I know, but I feel it is slowly catching on.
Alt: I've always been naturally skinny, so exercise is something I rarely consider. I did have a brief period a couple of years ago of having a bigger belly, which with my physique gave the appearance of a snake who had swallowed an egg. But this was easily tackled by simply eating less cake and going for a 5 minute run each morning. Once the belly had gone again, I gave up running.

I cut it myself, at 2am last Friday night.
I was babysitting and was woken up by noisy Shoreditch cunts and when I couldn't sleep I cut my hair.
I am a fucking weirdo sometimes. I am rather pleased with it though.

Current catchphrases in this household:
"No! We don't throw things!" to the toddler (which is a lie as I chuck stuff about in a rage all the time) or "leave the boobs alone" to both toddler and Catface.
Alt: Ran 8 miles yesterday, first decent run since the marathon. It was a bit hot.

As long as you're comfortable with it. There's not a single shred of medical evidence it does any good or bad past the first couple of months, maybe even less, but it's such an emotive subject that people can be absolute idiot cunts about the whole thing.

It was less an argument, more a statement.
I imagine that one of the reasons the world average is high is because it includes very poor countries where food is scarce and breastfeeding is a free, nutritious option.

OK, I don't want to argue about it
because it's not my place to, and I don't have a strong opinion either way. But you're a scientist... There is no study on anything like this that is able to separate out the actual effect of breast milk with the million other social-economic effects that are going to interfere with the outcome. You can't just take a couple of thousand mothers and lock up for a couple of years them in the controlled environment necessary to have any hope of relevant data.
I don't think it's bad. Logic suggests it's probably good, of course, but there's not any solid evidence and certainly nothing to vaguely back up the level of shit that the fanatics at the extreme end sling at anyone that dares question their choices.

Sure, there's never going to be that controlled an experiment
but that's the same for many, many things and I think the evidence that is coming out of the studies is indicative of breastfeeding being beneficial. Inferences can be drawn. Scientists aren't always working with cut-and-dried binary results. And fanatics are fanatics - I don't really care how other people feed their child; I care how I feed mine. I wouldn't get worked up over formula feeding but I did raise an eyebrow at the women I saw pouring coke into her child's sippy cup last week.

It's about nothing other than personal choice, of course. I just find it interesting the totally out-of-proportion response it generates from some sectors, tbh, and that some people think they have the right to preach about something they don't have any evidence to back up.
