Obviously, he was using hyperbole and not calling for what can be paraphrased by the "fuck him into the ground" remark.

Late to the party, but that statement from PeeZus doesn't even make sense. Medical students don't go through "neurosurgery training programs" at any US medical school AFAIK. There are neurosurgery electives in the fourth year that some medical students might take, but they wouldn't involve animal surgery taught by an undergraduate like PeeZus. A handful of medical students might be involved in neurosurgery-related research using animals, but that doesn't constitute a "neurosurgery training program." Neurosurgery isn't a core clinical clerkship in the third year - surgery is, but students aren't going to be trained in surgical techniques by an undergraduate. PeeZus' statement is, as usual, likely to be a complete fabrication, in response to being challenged on his bullshit. He needs to be challenged again, and asked which neurosurgical techniques he was training medical students to do, and in what context.Suet Cardigan wrote:http://imgur.com/4YDmEgF.png
Peez is always going on about how dim his students are as well.
You don't think he could have some sort of inferiority complex because he ended up in a college in some piss-stain of a town in Minnesota?
Half the words that come out of his mouth sound like the psychological equivalent of built up heels.

My dad bought a Commodore 64 when I was 5 and kept it in the corner of the basement. I loved that thing. My favorite games were Donald Duck's Playground, Q*Bert, Zaxxon and Moon Patrol. I remember playing that thing for hours. Sometimes until it got dark. I was deathly afraid of the basement when it got dark. SItting in the corner, playing games, afraid to even move or turn around lest the monsters got me.

That is, if her arguments are real, then they are spectacular.
I like how she claims that a key reason for her shooting videos "back to back" is that setting up the camera and mic takes "a lot of time" where her last two videos were clearly shot using an iPad, if the camera wobble and the light bloom (which she complained about in her last video) are anything to go by.x_?_x wrote:Tell me, when will Becky stop being amusing?Brive1987 wrote:[youtube]HUSoRZuLgFk[/youtube]

From the article:Now, much more could be said about caveats, but using just the information we have so far, we can see that a more accurate headline would look something like this:
Approximately 1 in 4 of 19% of a Non-Representative Sample of Women Who Responded to a Non-Representative Survey of 27 Colleges (Out of Roughly 5,000) Reported Experiencing Sexual Assault, Where "Sexual Assault" is Taken to Mean Anything from Being on the Receiving End of an Unsolicited Kiss to Forcible Penetration at Gunpoint, Regardless of the Particular Context
Obviously, that's too long to be practical - so let's see if we can think of something shorter:
Latest Campus Sexual Assault Survey Paints Complicated Picture: Report Stresses Methodological Limitations
That's about right in terms of accuracy ... but it wouldn't sell very many papers.
From the article:Even more to the point, there is a risk that "overselling" these kinds of findings will actually backfire in the long run, casting a shadow of cynicism over the efforts of those who are struggling--against not inconsiderable odds--to establish a culture (but hopefully not a bureaucracy!) of affirmative consent on college campuses.
The last thing our society needs is one more excuse to take rape statistics lightly.
I have to wonder how many SJWs think it's good to oversell the stats so that we can achieve a better society. Like, lying for Jesus, or perhaps more accurately, misleading for Jesus.The goal, in other words, should be to massively reduce the incidence of sexual harm--not only on college campuses, but everywhere. But in order to do this, we need to be serious about how we estimate the prevalence of assault, frank about the limitations of what we know and don't know, thoughtful about how we define our terms (including the range of behaviors we feel comfortable collapsing under one label), and painstakingly careful about how we communicate our findings to the public.
