Implicit Associations
Racist? Sexist? Ageist? Homophobe? You? Nah. Course not. Believe it or not these things are testable and quantifiable. The test works like this. You see a word like 'joy' or 'cruel'. If the word is good you press one key if bad you press a different key. Then you'll see either a word or a picture of someone black or white or young or old and be instructed to select the key for bad or good again. The idea is that when you try and do this quickly your subconcious shines through and a great many people who thought they were bias free end up consistently classifying blacks, gays, and women as bad and whites, straights, and men as good, or vice-versa depending on the individual.

Real Doll
Quite possibly one of the strangest sites on the web.
RealDoll.Com produces life size dolls which are
disconcertingly realistic. The standard lonely and loaded configuration costs $6000, however
additional options such as an " Interactive sensory response system" for $1500 and or "Hip Gyration system" will quickly run up the final ticket price. As to why anyone would be willing to buy an 85lb silicone doll for the price of a car you need look no further than this recommendation from
Howard Stern - "Best
sex I ever had! I swear to God! This RealDoll feels better than a real woman! She's fantastic! I love her! "

MRI of male and female genitals during coitus
This landmark study and rather innovative use of an MRI by Schultz,Andel,Sabelis and Mooyaart earned them an igNobel award in 2001. It's almost surprising that no one had done this before until you realize that an MRI machine costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and that they're not the most conducive places for a romantic tryst. The experiment, as one participant explains in an
interview, required the subjects of the picture to lie very still in a metal tube barely large enough for one. The first attempt in 1992 turned a dismal failure, as the movement necessary to, ah, keep the experiment going ended up blurring the images. The availability of Viagra in the Netherlands as of 1998 allowed for a repeated experiment with vastly improved results. The images and analysis are certainly educational. The most useful lesson seems to be to skip the coffee before sex, as a full
bladder seems to really push things around.

The breasts of Britney Spears
Britney Spears' breasts are more than wank fodder for middle-age American men, they're also a topic of serious debate. Are they real, fake or magical?? Various arguments have been put forth, but this flash movie at liquid generation sums it up the best.

2026: No capture of this page after 2006 survives; this is the 2006 page. The links go where they went then, and many
of those sites are gone.
