Destinguish Genuine from Fake Smiles
Maybe you have heard from Laughlab.
Laughlab is currently running "The Smile Study", to discover whether people can spot the difference between a genuine and fake smile. Quote:
My result was: Quote:
They also ran a web experiment to find the world's funniest joke. The experiment is finished. http://www.laughlab.co.uk/summary.html This is the winner: A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator, in a calm soothing voice says: “Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: “OK, now what?" Laughlab analysed the data from the ten countries that rated the highest number of jokes. The following ‘league table’ lists the countries, in the order of how funny they found the jokes: Most funny * Germany France Denmark UK Australia The Republic of Ireland Belgium USA New Zealand Canada Least funny Now this list is quite funny in itself. Is it so, that the Germans have the most humor of us all? Or are they just laughing about any and every BS? Anyway, here's my fave from the site: A scientist and a philosopher were being chased by a hungry lion. The scientist made some quick calculations, he said "its no good trying to outrun it, its catching up". The philosopher kept a little ahead and replied " I am not trying to outrun the lion, I am trying to out run you"!

5 out of 10 were correct. Not very surprising: just random.
