possibly the funniest article title I've ever seen

[kellinator]

Proof positive that you can write an article about anything, and not only will an academic journal somewhere publish it, someone else will want to read it!

An article I'm currently lending to the CDC: "The Deterrent Effect of Terrorist Incidents on the Rates of Luggage Theft in Railway and Underground Stations"

The gist of the article? After a bomb blows up in England, people don't steal as much luggage for a while.

I have no idea why this has me doubled over in laughter, but it does!

We laugh, because it's easier than sending a letter to the author of the article, explaining to them that they are big, goofy dicksmacks.

That's one of those "uh DUH" articles. Still funny as hell, though.

cheers,

Man.

That's gotta be the awesomest goddamn paper topic EVER. It blows my conceptual master's thesis WAY the fuck out of the water.
