A computer program was designed that could predict people's characteristics based on their "like"s on Facebook. Among many other things, one of the characteristics the computer program was able to anticipate was a person's sexual orientation.
The full list of results can be found here.
remember, to be most indicative something would not only be "like"d frequently by one side, but also "like"d infrequently by the other.
Now that DOMA was struck down by the Supreme Court, is this quiz acceptable? I honestly don't know what was ever offensive about it, though I tweaked it a little bit.
The average score on this is only 4, which is better than my similar quizzes about what FB likes say about your race or IQ... but still pretty terrible. So I'm going to make the hints much easier.
yeah, that's it. I literally spent 2 minutes reading and re-reading the instructions before ever putting anything down. I wasn't sure if i was supposed to be ranking things or what. Maybe if there were an example. Alas, I got 5. And thats cuz I put ESPN, which isn't even the same thing as Sportsnation. On a side note I'm still puzzled that Foot Locker is even mentioned on FB.
Calling WWE fake "sports entertainment" seems incorrect to me, somehow. The entertainment is real (to those who enjoy it), it's just the storylines and outcomes that are scripted. You wouldn't call a sitcom or Broadway play fake entertainments. I think calling it staged or scripted sports entertainment would be better.
but it is presented in such a way that some extremely gullible people believe that it's real. Nobody believes that I Love Lucy or Star Trek is a true story... but some people don't realize how scripted The Real World is, or that the website BangBus and all similar "reality" adult websites are complete bull, or that The Blair Witch project was total bull poop. I would call all of those things fake, even though they have entertainment value to some. The fights in WWE most certainly are completely fake, and the drama, though presented as real, is entirely fictitious/scripted/fake as well.
A real athletic competition or sporting event in my mind is one in which two or more competitors try to win some event through a superior demonstration of skill or physical ability. No doubt some performers in the WWE are skilled and all are very physically able, however, the degree to which they are skilled or able-bodied does not in any way influence the outcome. It is not a true competition. The results are pre-determined. It's not a sport. It's fake. Real entertainment, maybe to some. Definitely not a real sport.
