I'd like to run an experiment

**24labor** · 08-30-2006, 01:22 PM

I think it would be cool to run a few psychology experiments on common people and their habits or preferences that Ive noticed over then past couple years.

1. At my gym there are two drinking foutains one is lower than the other not by much maybe 5 inches but you have to bend down further than the other. I've noticed that almost every guy there will not drink from the smaller one even lines will form behind the taller one while the smaller one is not used. I mean do they think they are less of a man to have to bend over(this is where I stroll in and get a drink hell i drink from the smaller one it's all water) Why is this?

2. Ever notice when people say I only smoke when I drink or see how much a person smokes while drinkning. Is it a chemical reaction with alcohol and tobaccoor what(this would be tough I don't drink or smoke but still would be fun to do) I'd like to see the correlation on that one.

3. most men at least in college will not date or even hook-up with a taller woman. Even if its a little bit of height guys will tear her down(I like em tall or short more for me) weird? I think so. Even if shes super hot and all they saw was her face when she was sitting down they's saw damn look at her then as soon as she would stand up....next

Of course I am the opposite from all these observations which is why I prolly noticed them, but anyone else notice these little things

I hear ya I mean I have my water bottle but if I forget it ill use the fountain it's all the same water it's so funny to see people waiting for a drink when they could move over and get the same thing faster

1) No guy likes bending over unless it is to deadlift

2) Smoking while drinking feels great, but it is more the "im doing something bad" complex that comes along with drinking. Same reason my g/f begs me for things porn stars wouldn't do when she's loaded.

3) **** insecurity complexes, tall girls rule. They may not be able to be moved around as easily as smaller girls, but it's fun having legs a mile long wrapped around you.

My humble 2c's.

for the first one
I suppose you may be right for the second one like I said I don't do either so thats a tough one.
I like tall girls myself not over shirt girls but I'm only 5'9 so a lot of girls are as tall as me or taller bring em on

**Hackamaniac** · 08-30-2006, 01:31 PM

My gym only has one water fountain..

**D3m3nt3d** · 08-30-2006, 01:34 PM

1. Because I am 6'2 and I dont like little fountains.

2. I do smoke when I drink - it's like white on rice, it just goes together

3. Im 6'2..I dont see many girls taller, if they were I would probably feel funny..but it wouldnt stop me from dating them.

but it's only 3 -5 inches not like its 2 feet or anything I mean people will wait behind 5-6 people when they could go get a drink from the one right next to it I mean I know it's for shorter people or people in wheelchairs but it's there. I think this could be a good seinfeld episode

A buddy of mine did this avatar years ago, I believe its Micheal Myers from Halloween, notice you can see my buddy's face thru the blade.

Mike Myers was a Captain Kirk mask painted white. Unless Cpt Kirk had major plastic surgery to look like Ivana Trump, I'd guess the Puppet Master mask is probably right.

agree with all of this!! great points
1 idont like to bend beacuse i cant(damn deadlift stole my flexibility)

2 poeple smoke alot more when they are drunk then when they are sober, i am sure the alchol drops the normal nicotine fix, so you need more to beat the craving therefore they smoke more(people who say theyONLY smake when they are drunk are liars, they smoke when they are sober too, just not nearly as much or as often)

3 tall girls?if the girl was 7 foot i wouldn't give a flying fck! more fun for me! i think alot of guys have a problem approaching a taller girl becuse theyare affraid she will shoot them downfor being shorter than her.

Blade.

Myers

**D3m3nt3d** · 08-30-2006, 02:02 PM

Its a toss up! Micheal isnt smiling, but it does look alot like Blade. If I ever see my buddy I'll question that..

He was awesome with graphics, kinda twisted in the mind. I wish you could see his ears in the blade, he had combination locks thru them!

**collar** · 08-30-2006, 06:34 PM

**collar** · 08-30-2006, 06:35 PM

**Carlos_E** · 08-30-2006, 06:52 PM

*drinking foutain*

**Superhuman** · 08-30-2006, 06:58 PM

i'm 6'3" and I don't care I will use the small fountain AND the small urinal... i guess most guys have low self-esteem and think that people will judge them for using the shorter one.
