Drinking Too Much Causes Skin Cancer

[boxtops]

I saw this headline.

It seems a bit sensationalist for the Metro - it actually says (approx) "drinking too much makes you not realise that you are getting sunburnt, and it changes your skin's receptiveness to sunburn". I don't think the "not realising" bit is new research, I could have told them that!

It also causes pregnancy and blood stains on the pavement.

It seems our education system has become so degraded that people can no longer express the difference between cause and association.

Not much chance of that here in the UK boxy (sunburn that is!)

LOL keyplus, I don't think Jesus was ever reported as being legless on a beach in the midday sun....
