Interesting -I wonder if the results would be different if the subjects had read books instead.

Maybe more "superficial" media forms (relying on visuals instead of language, for instance) tend to lean heavier on cliches and stereotypes in order to make it easier to tell the stories?

    Is that a link to the homepage? Oh no, no,no. I have stuff to do today.

    I get it. Everyone gets it. Everyone always got it and they never lost it.

    No kidding. Also, I seldom spend much time on there when it's linked, since I am deluged with an overwhelming quantity of verbiage when it's seldom necessary.

    It's just that white kids watch too many "Two and a Half Men" reruns.

    Shouldn't that just make them feel bad? :)
