Why I love science, part 3,211

Here is a journal article from a few weeks ago which details the positive effects of looking at cute baby animals on productivity. What an awesome way to justify my habit of procrastinating by watching cat videos!

Hmm ... I'm surprised there's not much difference in the excitement level. Also looking forward to their inclusions of personality differences, though that's going to be a load of work ...

I wonder if this applies to plants as well. Nevertheless ... yay I have data support for my love observations to animals!! XD

I guess it would be easy enough to try out on plants! I'd have to do some thinking before being able to pick out which the cutest plant was. Maybe something small, like a buttercup?

Hmm ... come to think of it, have you ever heard // watched the plants experiment? The one about whether talking to the plants makes them grow faster, and if "good talks" and "bad talks" makes a difference?

I love the miracles of nature ... XD

I love that experiment too, probably because I can't really figure out a good explanation for the results. Except I always felt sorry for the plants that were verbally abused :(

[breadevil]

I know eh ... somehow it feels worse giving plants and animals the "bad talks" compared to humans ... =( Or maybe because humans replies you and plants and animals can't really ... or maybe I'm just weird. XD

Do you do much experiments at your college // in your own time? =)
