The Daily Mail has today warned readers that too much anger can kill you! 
The research quoted by the Mail states that 'feelings of rage can trigger potenitally irregular heart rhythms'. Luckily the Mail intends to calm its readers with carefully constructed stories like: 
Still, only women need to be angered by this (perhaps this is why they are so angry?). If depression is more of a worry, then finally the Mail have identified someone you can blame (don't get help - get angry!): your parents. Feeling glum? It could all be down to your blue genes: If you're one of life's miseries, whose glass always seems half empty, at least you now have someone to blame. Your parents. You'll be cheered to discover - or perhaps not - that the genes we inherit determine whether we tend to accentuate the positive. The finding that there really are born optimists could help explain why some people have a spring in their step, while others like nothing better than a good grumble. So have we found a genetic explanation for why some people read the Mail? Certainly the first commentator seems full of genetic depression: You need to be brain dead to be optomistic about things today!! - Despairing!, Leeds, 25/2/2009 15:10 Quite. The article recommends that 'looking on the bright side can also cut stress' and gives a useful tip for prospective optimists: 'surrounding yourself with upbeat people'. So probably best to avoid the Mail Online then when people get upset when Eastenders screen a whole episode only featuring black characters! ' Can you imagine an all white episode' ponders one reader... um, you don't need to, there have been many episodes only featuring white actors. Funnily enough the PC brigade must have missed these episodes. Or perhaps the PC Brigade don't actually exist and the Mail wouldn't report an all-white episode as presumably it wouldn't give their racist readers anything to get angry about. Another thing to get angry about is the continuing 'scam' of global warming: Antarctica glaciers melting at alarming rate, warn international team of scientist. Not so, as the angry Mail readers are keen to point out: The Antartic, as I'm sure you all know, is a desert. A warmer environment means that more snow will fall there, more than replacing the ice lost to the sea. Net result, sea levels will fall maybe. Scared now?

Maybe an inch in the past hundred years. Nothing seems to indicate that rate is changing. This is just more propaganda from the global warming scam group. Oh and those claims of Island in the pacific disappearing because of rising sea level, well they are actually sinking. Nothing to do with GW. This scam has gotten out of hand and it's time to pull the plug on any global warming studies. Use the money to help relieve poverty just stop wasting it on junkscience.

I cannot wait for the day when the Mail finally uses the front page headline: READING THE DAILY MAIL CAUSES CANCER! AND GUESS WHO'S PAYING... |
