I'm a bit of a discount-bin psychology nerd myself.... can you link me to study you're referencing? The only similar one I'm familiar with is the 2014 experiment undertaken by the psychology department at UVA 🤔

Well since @JohnDB is apparently busy, I'll just post a link to the UVA study here in case anyone is interested.

Doing Something is Better Than Doing Nothing for Most...

Most people are just not comfortable in their own heads, according to a new psychological investigation led by the University of Virginia.

The study, in a nutshell, found that when placed in a room without outside stimulus such as phones, books, paper, pens etc. And told to think for up to 15 minutes, some subjects preferred to shock themselves. One did so 190 times.

No link between the desire to shock (or lack thereof) and psychopathy was made. It sounds like all the subjects were presumed psychologically normal.

However, the study did find that there was a strong link between shocking yourself and Y chromosomes.

67% of males went for the zap and only 25% of females.

Suit yourself then. Would have been nice to see a link to your study but I get that copy-paste can be tricky. 🤷‍♀️

I will refrain from posting my assessment of your mental and emotional state.

Like a good psychopath. 😉

There is a Starbucks on the corner up the road from me. I don't willingly hang out there. I'd rather go to the plant barn and look at plants and sit in the cafe there and eat fresh food with my drink. I don't go alone if I'm going to a cafe though.

Haven't I already said Starbucks is for coffee addicts only. They just want your money - that's why it's called StarBUCKS.

The only barista I talk to is the one that has a truck where I go for my guitar lesson. He's married, but the hot chocolate is only $3 and when I asked for hot water, he gave it to me. Also he's given me free hot chocolate on the house when I didn't have any coins.
