I told you I needed to sleep in!

A new study reports that sleep deprivation leads to lapses in moral judgement. So, next time your caught shaggin' some sexy foreigner by your significant other just say:

"Bitch (or "Listen you prick" for you pc peoples), you shoulda let me sleep in."

Additionally, if my children inquire as to the reason I'm spanking them, I shall refer them to the Killgore study (yes, that's one of the researchers names, KillGore). More from the study:

"What's more, some volunteers changed their views of what was morally acceptable after they'd been awake for two days. This was not universally true, however; volunteers who, at the beginning of the study, scored high on a measure known as "emotional intelligence" did not waver on what they found morally appropriate.

Emotional intelligence refers to a person's ability to understand his or her own emotions and those of others, and to effectively relate to other people."

This "emotional intelligence" concept sounds interesting. Happy PI day one and all. Oh yes, Florida sucks and will lose at the sweet 16.
