BOOBQUAKE! April 26, 2010

I will definitely be participating! Not for work of course, but will be wearing my most earthquake inducing dress for my human sexuality class that evening!

Quote:
"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media. Sedighi is Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader.

I have a modest proposal.

Sedighi claims that not dressing modestly causes earthquakes. If so, we should be able to test this claim scientifically. You all remember the homeopathy overdose?

Time for a Boobqauke.

On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts. Or short shorts, if that's your preferred form of immodesty. With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake. If not, I'm sure Sedighi can come up with a rational explanation for why the ground didn't rumble. And if we really get through to him, maybe it'll be one involving plate tectonics.

So, who's with me? I may be a D cup, but that will probably only produce a slight tremor on its own. If you'll be joining me on twitter, use the tag #boobquake!

Brilliant!

Purely in the interests of science, of course, but I'll volunteer to observe and make notes.

I think I would have allot to contribute to this experiment but I am around cows all day, won't they think I am woefully inadequate?

Considering that there are about 14,000 earthquakes a year of magnitude 4 or higher (source), the crazies will use this as evidence to support their position.

That's about 38 per day.

And to the scientists who are concerned with my methods - don't worry, I fully plan on doing some statistics after the event. I know many earthquakes happen on a daily basis, so we're looking to see if Boobquake significantly increases the number or severity of earthquakes.

I was out and about today. I forgot this thing was today, but I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary in the way anyone was dressed. It was cool and drizzly, so if anything, everyone was bundled up.

By the way, there was a magnitude 6.5 earthquake off of Taiwan today.

I wore a vest top* to school yesterday.
The usual suspects stared at my boobies (6-7 year old boys - they stare at boobies however they're contained). I don't wear cleavage enhancing tops to school, but I admit I wear strappy tops, simply because the classroom is so damned hot!

Moreso because we now have a heat lamp over our four baby chicks.

*ETA - vest top is a wifebeater with spaghetti straps. At least I think so. It's what I wear in most of my photos, because the 'rents house is generally too damned hot too.

Well if tits can cause earthquakes, I guess the tornados can be explained by the blowjob I got on Saturday.
