Lost In Xanadu Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 http://www.nationalreview.com/article/439478/university-of-iowa-herky-mascot-angry-blogger A professor at the University of Iowa is concerned that the school’s hawk mascot, Herky, looks angry — and its appearance could be contributing to a culture of violence, depression, and even “suicide.” “I believe incoming students should be met with welcoming, nurturing, calm, accepting and happy messages,” clinical professor of pediatrics Resmiye Oral, wrote in an e-mail to the school’s athletic department, according to an article in Iowa City Press Citizen.

treeduck Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I think some of the people that come up with shit like this must be totally detached from reality. Otherwise they'd laugh their balls off at the stupidity of it like everyone else must be doing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimsonmistymemory Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Key words "She Thinks" No disrespect to women I mean where would we be with out them. And after 27 years of marriage to the same woman I have learned to appreciate a different view point on issues. However some women have a tendancy to way over think things on an emotional level... This is one for sure! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
