No, no: it's *Science*!

Apparently good old common sense and a whole lot of "Chicken Soup For The Disillusioned Society's Soul" is now being labelled as a "scientific" approach to happiness.

Give me a break. This isn't science. It's an Oprah's Top Ten List of How To Be A Happy And Fulfilled American (though I do note that they encourage one to get involved in one's church or mosque, which amuses me for some reason).

Oh, the principles are fine, I agree. Heck, I use some of them and they work quite well. I just love that it's being touted as this brand-new "scientific" method (where's the science, I ask?) which has Never Before Been Revealed To Man. :P
