Why are yawns contagious?
-Joanna
I believe that yawns are the result of either a need to equalize pressure in your sinus cavity and ears or the desire to redistribute chemicals in your brain. Some studies suggest yawning is a means of placating nervousness, relieving stress, or alleviating sleepiness.
So they are probably contagious because of some type of pack mentality. By also yawning you put yourself in a similar state as the person you saw yawn. Thus you affirm their state of being and consequently their need for yawnage. It is kind of like involuntary cuddling.
What the hell does kitty-corner mean?
- Alan
If a kitty has corners it generally means that you have broken it some how. In spite of the 5 pointy ends that cats usually display they should not have corners. Cats should be roughly tubular and furry exhibiting slightly smaller tubes extending from the anterior & posterior ends of their central tubes and a significantly smaller furry cylinder extending from their butt.
