Watch Six Pairs Stare Into Each Others’ Eyes As A Love Experiment

If your heart hurts, it’s probably because it just grew a few sizes.

1. Can uninterrupted eye contact boost intimacy, even if people don’t know each other well?

Soul Pancake / Via youtube.com

Last month a New York Times writer recreated a psychologist’s love experiment, which requires two people to gaze at each other for four straight minutes (and also answer 36 questions). The idea is that feeling vulnerable can cultivate closeness.

2. Soul Pancake collected a dozen people to recreate the visual portion and test this theory.

The six pairs’ relationship levels varied from meeting for the first time to being married for 55 years.

3. After some uncomfortable fidgeting, you can see their unease start to melt away.

I’m not crying, you are!

Citizens turn Obama’s ‘fact’ false narratives into pesky facts about Obama

http://twitter.com/#!/ThePantau/status/220236469648891905

As Twitchy reported earlier, President Obama was full of fail today. We know; what else is new? Everything he touches turns to fail, which is why he can’t even run on his abysmal record.

So, this afternoon he started tweeting out stuff about Mitt Romney and a bank account in Switzerland. Cue the ominous Swiss music! Of course, this reminded us of a pesky little detail that the president forgot: President Obama is fundraising in Switzerland. That kind of Swiss money is A-Okay.

When his attempts at fanning absurd outrage failed, he upped it by adding FACT in front of his tweets.

FACT: In 2010, Romney reported having a $3 million Swiss bank account. http://t.co/jwavYYy7

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) July 3, 2012

FACT: In 2010 and 2011, Romney paid less than 15% in taxes on $42.5 million in income—much less than what many middle-class families pay.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) July 3, 2012

He’s super serious, y’all. Well, citizens found that even more hilarious, so Obama’s fail just worsened. Twitter users decided to remind President Obama of some actual facts.

$6.375 million in taxes. Twice. RT @BarackObama: FACT: In 2010 and 2011, Romney paid less than 15% in taxes on $42.5 million in income.
