Good to Know





Need to ask your dad, brother, uncle, or grandfather for something? (Karate lessons? Bail money? A kidney? A place to hide while you're on the run from the law/gangsters/CIA?) According to a study conducted by a major pharmaceutical manufacturer (I'm going to let that fact go without comment for now), men are more likely to grant the wishes of a female loved one at 6PM.

Gee, I wish all studies funded by major pharmaceutical manufacturers were this practical!

why 6pm??? thats weird that a pharmaceutical manufacturer would conduct an study like that... Is it for a new drug or something??

6pm? Are you serious. It must just be random, or maybe it has to do with how tired or hungry they are. That could make sense. You start getting tired around six and that would be also when you would get hungry for dinner. I would think though that those factors would make you grumpy and less likely to agree. Maybe its because a loved one asked. Hmm

interesting. perhaps this has to do with the setting sun, which calms people. Also, enzyme specificity is implied by the lock and key theory, as opposed to the induced fit theory. It would also be important to take into account the fact that enzyme denaturation will be distorted by passing the optimum temperature. So, those sre my thoughts on the matter.

MC: Hahaha. Although that does make perfect sense it has absolutely nothing to do with pharmaceutical manufacturers or 6pm.

Sorry for catching you out there <3

This makes me laugh! XD

btw, if MC's theory is applicable, the time should change between winter and summer, because the sun starts to set earlier/later. Aaaah, sweet ole biology! Enzymes, cellular respiration, genetics, etc...

Uh-oh. Someone's trying to replicate Fille Fiable...probably for some villainous purpose.

Like advertising.

yep! i was just studying for a bio quiz. I got a 92 on it. darn. oh well. so while thats all true it has nothing to do w/ it. sorry bout that

i tend to go crazy while studying.
once after i studied for a math test i did math problems in my dream. and just so you know,when I checked them when i woke up, i got them all right

So I should wait until six to show my parents my next report card... That's a useful study!
