    Why you want to empty your beer before smashing it on someones head

    http://improbable.com/ig/winners/#ig2009

    PEACE PRIZE: Stephan Bolliger, Steffen Ross, Lars Oesterhelweg, Michael Thali and Beat Kneubuehl of the University of Bern, Switzerland, for determining — by experiment — whether it is better to be smashed over the head with a full bottle of beer or with an empty bottle.
    REFERENCE: "Are Full or Empty Beer Bottles Sturdier and Does Their Fracture-Threshold Suffice to Break the Human Skull?" Stephan A. Bolliger, Steffen Ross, Lars Oesterhelweg, Michael J. Thali and Beat P. Kneubuehl, Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, vol. 16, no. 3, April 2009, pp. 138-42.

        My thread treated the subject matter with the respect it deserved. Not your gutter rat version.

              My thread has bra gas masks (with pic) and panda poop (no pic).

              It's not my fault the masses can't appreciate a quality Poly thread.
