I thought I'd call this to your attention... There are multiple issues with the headline above that I must address.
First, it never fails to amaze me where spelling mistakes can be found. This mistake (circled in red above) appeared this afternoon on Yahoo's homepage of all places! Do you think someone could clue them in? Here, let me help mister editor of a multi-billion-dollar website. "Genes," is actually spelled J-E-A-N-S. There, now you know how to spell jeans.
My second issue has to do with reporting on the obvious. Is it really necessary to waste our time with information that is already generally accepted and widely known? "Happiness may be found in our genes study finds." No, really? Like I didn't know that by the time I was in third grade.
Lastly, I take issue with their choice in words. For instance, what if a person only wears khakis? I believe the headline should have been written, "Happiness may be found in our pants study finds." There, now don't you agree that pants is far less restricting than jeans?Labels: satire, web reviews
