An Irishman, an Englishman, and a Scotsman all walk into a bar. They sit down and proceed to drink.

The Scotsman states "Tis a fine watering hole, but nothing like the bars in Glasgow. If you buy four drinks there, the fifth is always on the house"

The Englishman states, "That's nothin'. In London, if you buy two drinks, the third is always on the house."

The Irishman states, "In Dublin, as soon as you walk into a bar, they'll buy all yer drinks for ya. And then when you're done, if you want to get laid, they'll take ya upstairs and make sure it happens."

The Englishman states, "There's no way that's true."

The Irishman responds "Tis true. Happened to me sister three times last week"

Interesting study here.

Effectively, there's a scientific reason people don't make eye contact. Making eye contact is, in essence, a "task" the brain must complete which distracts it from cognitively deciphering what is being said or done, and then formulating a coherent response. Ergo, the brain's go to move is to focus somewhere else.

This study was clearly done by men who want to have a nerdy reason why they're not paying attention to their wives/girlfriends.
