So my sister and I are talking yesterday, and knowing how much I love dolphins she asks me if I’ve seen the Dolphin Stress Test on Facebook. “No, but dolphin interaction has been said to be highly therapeutic for stress and special needs children….” I think her response was something equivalent to, “blah, blah, blah…” She sends it to me.

Dolphins and Stress: I am not exactly sure how it works, but this is amazingly accurate. The picture to the left has 2 identical dolphins in it. It was used in a case study on stress levels at St. Mary’s Hospital. Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical. A closely monitored, scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical; a person under stress would find differences in the two dolphins. The more differences a person finds between the dolphins, the more stress that person is experiencing. Look at the photograph and if you find more than one or two differences you may want to take a vacation.

Now, we’re both fairly intelligent people…most of the time. We do experience moments of discombobulation, and we can both be pretty damn funny. Me: Knock-knock → Sis: Come on in. K, that actually was one of those moments…but see how damn funny it was?? After comparing notes, and a brief discussion, we came to the conclusion that either we’re both severely stressed or…we were having another moment. Now, back to the we can be pretty damn funny part. We decided to make our own stress test.

People and Stress: I am not exactly sure how it works, but this is amazingly accurate. The picture to the right has 2 identical beautiful women in it. It was used in a case study on stress levels at St. Mary’s Hospital. Look at both women. They are identical. A closely monitored, scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the beauties are identical; a person under stress would find differences in the two. The more differences a person finds between them, the more stress that person is experiencing. Look at the photograph and if you find more than one or two differences you may want to take a vacation.

That’s funny…right? We thought so. We thought everyone else would think so too. Apparently, not so much. At the end of the day, there was 1 response. Uno. Ein. ένας. One.
“You girls are hilarious! but Beautiful too!”
To be completely honest, I’m kinda still laughing…it’s like I’m the dolphin and she’s the cow! Yeah…we can both be pretty damn funny. Perhaps our Facebook friends are just experiencing moments of discombobulation. Knock-knock.
