Strippers, Sodas and Jerks, Oh My!


So the 18th Annual Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony has come and gone. The event is thrown each year by that Annals of Improbable Research, a popular science/humor journal. More than 1200 people attended the affair at Harvard University and I just gotta say, that looked like a fun party. Wanna see a nobel laureate tooting emphatically on a big, plastic horn? Harvard, here I come! Anyhoo, if you haven't yet seen the outcome...

Who Won What

Well, they found out that strippers make more money when they're ovulating, a predictable jerk isn't as maddening as someone who's a loose cannon, and a there was even a tie for two teams: one who proved that Coke was a spermicide and one who proved it wasn't. In either case, it's not a viable contraceptive so don't even try it.

You see? Education can be fun. Didn't you get the memo?!?
