Scientists Work Out Why Fries Smell Great

[dalek sec]

My God, so many amazing studies, this and the 'Science discovers teenage girls don't shut the hell up' research group are truly pushing human knowledge forward.

Oh yeah, don't worry about coming with a power source in case oil runs out or how we could live on the moon or mars. It's plainly clear that this crap is important.

I always thought certain baked potatoes smelled exactly like chocolate.

What kind of science is going on these days? First the study about teenage girls talking too much, now this?

We must be running out of things to science.

but cancer and heart disease haven't been cured yet (maybe heart disease has, not sure) and people are still starving. In fact a large percentage is starving.

Priceless...

 

[KittywifaMohawk]

Oh my god. I just got done reading the topic about how scientists find out that talking online is repetitive and depresses teenagers. And I thought scientists get bored. Now I KNOW they get bored.

What was the point of finding this out? I want to know. And I also wanna how much money was spent on this.
And for god sakes! Ironing boards!!
I have nothing to say to that...

*breaks out into song* Chips glorious chips!

'What makes them so tasty?? Just let me explain....

DAVE DON'T BE SO HASTY!' (oh god...)

 

[pantsoffdanceoff]

Every time I read these articles I /facepalm myself. Why would they waste their time on stuff like this? I just don't understand...

Well think about it... if you ever make a ground breaking theory on something important the millions of ignorant twats who walk this earth will cheese grater your balls until you back off and act stupid like everyone else. ( a la stem cell research)

*Bangs head on desk*

Really? I always thought they smelled like fried potatoe!

Yep, why are they researching this? I mean for fucks sake what asshole becomes a scientist and wastes his valuable talents seeing why he likes the smell of fries (freedom or not).

 

[Snotnarok]

As worthless as the research is, now I'm hungry for fries.

 

[HypnotizedCOW]

Well, isn't that just wonderful? They could be spending this money on, i don't know, feeding starving children, but instead we now know that we like the sweet aroma of ironing boards. Thanks Science!!!

 

[GothmogII]

I'd watch what we say...this 'Potato Council' doesn't seem like a group to mess with!

QFT.

Next up from the Institute of the Pointless and/or Obvious: Smoking causes cancer, milk chocolate contains milk, organic meat-bags are made of water yet aren't driven insane by the constant 'sloshing' noise they make, and bombs can kill people if they're exploded near people.

 

[Dogstile]

good ol' science, wasting time and money again!

 

[Kriegsherr]

Do you reckon if i asked them nicely their next project would be to discover how much wood a wood chuck would chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?

 

[Sigenrecht]

I swear I'll personally annihilate the server hosting these forums if another thread turns up about how some group of scientists or how science as an entirety took a closer look at things everybody not only takes for granted, but couldn't give less than a rat's ass about if they told us anyway. This is garbage in and of itself, and the reactions are expected but irrational. Yes, a bunch of bored fucks are telling us what we already know. Don't waste space mentioning it, and don't assume every doctor, astronomer, biologist, physicist, chemist, and all of your other "ist"s are as blooming retarded as these lots, especially on the off chance somebody's just fucking with you.

The asshole who realized fruitlessly studying cancer wont pay the bills, and sold his soul to Ore Ida

Who is now out of work as no one wants to know why bacon is delicious during a recession.

Welcome to "pointless studies funded by the government" week, here at the Escapist. Today's entries are an in-depth study of what cooked french fries smell like, with the amazing result of them smelling like ironing boards and cocoa, not fries. Earlier editions covered the elusive question of "Do Girls Talk Too Much" and "What Color is Ketchup". Tomorrows installments will delve into the world of why farts smell like crap, as well as a detailed study of what happens when you piss on an electric fence. Stay tuned, as out next installment will reveal the shocking 50-year study on gravity and what happens when things go up. Now back to "Teh Internetz. For Porn?", only on E.

oh man that made me laugh so hard I fell out of my chair. My sides hurt.
