Shocking new research from the brainboxes in NYU.
A New York State University team quizzed over 1,000 students, finding women place a big emphasis on kissing.
They use kissing as a way of assessing the recipient as a potential partner, and later to maintain intimacy and to check the status of a relationship.
But men placed less importance on it, using it to increase the likelihood of sex, Evolutionary Psychology reported.
People, people, people, the other brain outfit in New York brought out similar research years ago, so there’s no need to be rehashing the same conclusion…
Chandler: I think, for us, kissing is pretty much like an opening act, y’know? I mean, it’s like the stand-up comedian you have to sit through before Pink Floyd comes out.
Ross: Yeah, and-and it’s not that we don’t like the comedian, it’s that-that… that’s not… why we bought the ticket.
Chandler: You see, the problem is, though, after the concert’s over, no matter how great the show was, you girls are always looking for the comedian again. Y’know? I mean, we’re in the car, we’re fighting traffic… basically, just trying to stay awake.
Rachel: Yeah, well, word of advice: bring back the comedian. Otherwise next time you’re gonna find yourself sitting at home, listening to that album alone.
How much time and money would be saved at establishments of learning if they just paid attention to what the television tells us? Such a waste…
Yes… Friends really has all you need to know about life in general. I quoted from it myself just today!
Forget literary geniuses and historical figures, I always go back to Chandler for some of my all-time favourite quotes.
Like:
“Donald Duck, right? Never wore pants. But when he gets out of the shower, he always has a little towel around his waist. I mean… what’s THAT about?”. Classic.
I wouldn’t go quite so far as that; I wouldn’t recommend their particular care plan for monkeys, for example. And Joey’s diet advice leaves quite a bit to be desired…
