For kicks and giggles I began reading the first link.
I'm still giggling....
If you want to have a serious conversation, fine. If you're just going to be condescending, just leave and don't come back.
+1. There are peer-reviewed articles with excellent research showing the effects of derping/overderping on the brain. Those with derp addiction have the same change in dopamine receptors as those addicted to alcohol, cocaine, gambling and sex.
Now I'm giggling - at you babe!

Peer-reviewed articles (you DO know what a peer-reviewed article is, right RushBabe? :huh: )

Seems legit, if you were addicted to derp, why even list specific categories of derp?
"This survey asks about your derping habits in the past year.
People sometimes have difficulty controlling their intake of certain derps such as: addiction threads
As for your other links, I'm sorry, are we talking about rodents or humans, confused
I'm not surprised that you are confused. You did know that most legitimate research begins with animals, right? For example, zinc deficiencies and brain development http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3137936/.
Since you don't seem to know much about research, let me explain. If scientists were to attempt to conduct research on ALL categories of derp, the research would be so immense that the information would become confused just because of the enormity of it, therefore, scientists narrow the research to specific parameters. In the case cited above, the researchers narrowed the field to "zinc" and brain development rather than "all minerals" or "all nutrients" and brain development. In the case of derp addiction, they narrowed the field to the most popular "binge" derps - fat and sugar - instead of just "all derp" to get a more concise result.
Conducting first level research on humans is considered unethical so they begin with animals, however, CT scans of the brains of those suspected to have derp addiction have concluded that the brains of those addicted to derp closely resemble those with other types of addictions. Also, those with primary derp addictions, just as those with other addictions, often have a "crossover" addiction. Those with alcoholism often (but not always) have addictions to other things such as gambling or narcotics. Those with derp addictions often have a secondary crossover addiction of alcohol.
I'm glad that results from animal/rodent studies must mean it is applicable to humans. This was a thread about derp addiction in humans, so posting a study involving rodents is not evidence of derp addiction in humans.
Also if so called derp addicts can not moderate their intake of "derp" then the actual type should not matter. Wouldn't the questionnaire be more accurate if they questioned people who binge on vegetables, eggs etc vs hyper palatable derps that some people lack will power to derp in moderation.
Of alcohol and other such addictions, which ones made it into the DSM V? Just wondering0 -
That's hot0
