The Norwegians concoct a way to overcome their shyness. It started out as a goof, but it turned out that people dug the idea.

Well, looky here.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!

"Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, resulting in about 4,400 deaths per year, according to the CDC. For every suicide among young people, there are at least 100 suicide attempts. Over 14 percent of high school students have considered suicide, and almost 7 percent have attempted it."
"Bully victims are between 2 to 9 times more likely to consider suicide than non-victims, according to studies by Yale University"
"160,000 kids stay home from school every day because of fear of bullying"

I just don't want to spend my life watching exploition videos from axe-grinders. I edit video for a living: I know the tricks. I went to college: I know how people tell subtle lies. I was raised near assholes: I know that many are full of shit.

Well, it will be difficult to have faith in the neutrality of numbers from a website called "bullyingstatistics dot org"… The way they put it right there in their name gives the sense that maybe they have a chip on their shoulder, knowutimean?

I have more trust in the CDC itself… Not enough trust, but more than in those who'd recklessly cite them. And when you look at their page, numbers are indeed falling for children, as was (correctly) noted (by me) earlier.

It's a world of treachery, and others are oblivious!

This tweet comes to mind.

Third Eye Blind was my last favorite rock group. Then I got old and wasn't allowed to have favorites any more.

They stamp a thing on your driver's licence: "Done. Over. Time to care about something else."

John Kerry wants Snowden to 'man up' and come home for his prison sentence.

Thank the electorate this ... man ... did not succeed in his quest for power.
