Ever wonder why evolution hasn't weeded out the Y chromosome yet? This UVA study shows nearly 70% of men would rather electrocute themselves than sit quietly with their thoughts for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, women clock in at a reasonable 25%.

No wonder our insurance premiums are higher! Next study idea: measuring how many men would jump off a cliff if you told them there's no Wi-Fi at the bottom.
