BEAUTY SLEEP IS REAL

(May, 2017) Researchers at Stockholm University have found that getting enough sleep does make you more attractive. The study, published in the Royal Society Open Science journal, involved 25 volunteers who agreed to be photographed after having had two consecutive nights of good sleep, and then again after having had only four hours sleep for two nights in a row. 122 members of the public were then asked to look at the photos, giving each person pictured a rating for attractiveness, health, sleepiness and trustworthiness. The sleep-restricted volunteers were perceived to be less attractive, less healthy and more sleepy – and the raters were also less inclined to want to socialize with them.
* On the other hand, some consider sleeping around to be a very attractive trait.
* So according to this, Steve Buscemi is an insomniac.
* Sure sleeping makes you more attractive, but then there’s morning breath.
* Maybe it’s nature’s way of keeping things under control.
* 25 volunteers? Wow, thanks for going the extra mile.
* It’s called the Royal Society “Open Science” journal ’cause anybody who can write up a report can get in.
* Who would want to go to Stockholm University? Thousands of blonde Swedish coeds roaming around trying to stay warm.
* The place sounds like a real hellhole.
* I get up at 4 a.m. to do this show, so that explains a lot.
