Pretty good.
I have mainly spent this morning being angry at an evolutionary psychologist. But it's WEDNESDAY. That's good, because it means that it's not Tuesday any more. Or Monday, for that matter.
How are you?

Good thank you
Amazing how positive exercise can make one feel. Why did no-one tell me this years ago?
Um, and evolutionary psychologist? I'm going to need more detail please

His name's Kanazawa.
He works at LSE and basically, is a complete fucking idiot with a massive platform. He writes for Psychology Today, which has a very large readership in America, and... yeah. He's a dick.

I'm going to assume that it's not evolution itself you have an issue with

What I'm doing here is mocking your argument by using a totally useless argument with exactly as much substance as yours.

I'm not allowed to back up opinions on here.
Then I'm being 'humourless' and 'taking b3ta too seriously'.
EDIT: And thank you for the explanation.

I don't think you're allowed to say a whole disipline is hokum
It's not, it's not perfect but it's a decent attempt to explain the human mind.
By looking at it purely from an evolutionary stand point you get away from a lot of the distractions that the mind takes on from modern life.
What I assume you have against it is that it often come to conclusions that are racist and sexist and generally anti liberal. Morality doesn't come into it though, leave it alone.

My boss went to see Kylie Minogue on Monday night. To keep his girlfriend happy, apparently. We all ripped the piss out of him in Tuesday's meeting, then ten minutes later he asked me for some figures and I replied "I'll struggle to get them done today - you should be so lucky"
That's all I've got

They were saying in the papers how the president of the student union at LSE (or one of the other london unis, can't remember, didn't take in enough details in my head)....
... is an islamic extreamist and that Camron whats him banned from being in any sort of power.... Apparently only 13% of students voted for it.
Scale that up and that's how the Nazi's got into power, well, that, and they forced their way in.
