Lie detector expert claims you might as well flip a coin to tell if somebody’s lying.

The polygraph test was invented 100 years ago, the technology hasn’t changed since then. It measures the body’s fight or flight response. However, lie detector expert, Doug Williams (who used to give these tests for the federal government) claims that it’s easy to fake these responses, just by visualising a car crash or falling off a cliff. You body still responds to your thoughts, which throws the test.

For 40 years, Williams had taught people how to pass this test in an attempt to make polygraph tests redundant.

Williams claims $150,000,000 are spent by the US government every year on these tests. He calls for the tests to be scrapped as they’re a waste of government money and their accuracy is only 50%

Williams claimed the lie detectors tests make people more likely to confess a crime, but only because they (wrongly) believe the test is going to ‘find them out’.

Williams has written books and gives classes to help people understand how to trow the test. As a result he is under federal investigation and looking at 100 years in prison.

Now I’m wondering about all the episodes of Jeremy Kyle I’ve seen…

What a blast from 80’s past! Who remembers these awesome toys?

There were 2 types of Keypers toys, Adult and Baby Keypers. Adult Keypers came with a Keyring, Brush & Key, all Baby Keypers came with brushes.

There were also Finders. But we’ll get to them later…

1. Joyful

Had long pink hair, glitter eyes and her tummy unlocked

2. Bonnie / Brella

Bonnie was her name in the UK, it was Brella in the US. One version of her had glitter eyes.

  3. Michelle

Michelle – Shell! I get it now! (It was Sheldon in the US)

The adult purple Turtle had large, sleepy eyes (sometimes glitter eyes), long white & pink hair. She came with a scarf & hat, a pink keyring, a purple key & purple brush. Her shell unlocked to reveal a secret compartment

That little guy is a finder… There are a few more Finders coming up… 

4.Princess

The adult Swan had either purple & white hair or pink hair. She had pink wings and came with a beautiful crown, scarf, keyring, pink key & brush.

Wow look at that crown!!!

5. Belle

The Baby Swan had long purple or pink hair, a bonnet and glitter eyes. She came with a white block with a Key painted on the side & brush.

6. Fancy

This Adult Pink Snail was very popular, she cames with pink key, keyring, brush, scarf & hat.

This is her ‘finder’. Also, I’m pretty sure I had those bed covers…

7. Diamond

This adult pony came in all sorts of colours, she had a saddle (which unlocked) and she came with a keyring, key & brush.

 8. Glitter

This baby pony came with a brush.

9. Tango

This ladybug was orange with long yellow hair, her secret place was beneath her wings

Finders

These finders came with the adult Keypers

Keypers were massive in the late 80’s, so there were all sorts of merchandise available. Here are a few of them…

1. Story book & Cassette Tape

 2. A puzzle

 3. A lunchbox

If you need one more blast from the past, watch the Keypers TV advert below!

23. Nicotine Withdrawals

24. Guilt Tripper

25. Testing Texting!

26.  Bitter Sweet Love

1. You don’t think before you speak

Because you don’t need to. Why would you? If you’ve got something to say, you just say it. Why isn’t everybody else like that!?

2. You tell the truth. Always.

If your girlfriend asks you of she’s gone too far with the lip fillers this time, you tell her the truth and spend the next two weeks calling her Lisa Rinna.

3. You can’t hide your real feelings

Your facial expression tells it all. You roll your eyes, snarl, and lick your teeth without even realising you’re doing it. When people ask you, ‘Are you OK?’ it’s because your face is telling them somethings up.

4. You can’t help but get bored of… well… lots of things

Small talk, lies, social etiquette, fake ass people. You have your priorities in order so if something’s wasting your time, you bail. Because you’ve got better things to do.

5. You only have a small group of friends

Because you only let people you can trust into your life. You choose your own friendship group and you like to be able to count the number of best friends you have on one hand.

6. People judge you before they meet you

Because they hear sh*t about you. Which is sometimes true. But whatever, if people want to talk behind your back about how awesome/bitchy you are, let them. Most of the time, if you actually give them the time of day, they change their mind about you anyway and end up liking you.

7. You don’t do hugs

You don’t follow the rules of society and you don’t understand why people insist on hugging/kissing when they meet/say goodbye. You prefer to stand back than let people invade your personal space.

8. You can’t help but think it’s funny to be mean

That’s just your sense of humour and it’s not gonna change. But you’ve rarely come across another girl who doesn’t chuckle when someones got their skirt tucked in their knickers or some drunk guy just peed himself.

9. Men are scared of you

Potential boyfriends, your brother, your brothers friends, your boss, your teacher. Most men, apart from (possibly) your Dad. Because you respect him, and most men you’ve met so far haven’t earned that respect. Yet.

10. You stand up for yourself

Because you have every right to and you learned to a long time ago. Why do people think that’s a bad thing?

11. You have a temper

You lose it when you’ve been around idiots for too long. When your rage is released, no one is safe.

But you don’t mind being called a bitch. You admit that you do come across as one, but in fact you’re just a girl who knows what she wants and has high standards. And is incredibly funny but dry as hell.

For probably the first time in the history of pregnancies, a husband (who’s also very handsome – but that’s not important) reveals to his wife that she’s pregnant.

Sam (the attractive husband) and Nia (his stunning wife) already have 2 beautiful children.

Sam explains to the camera that Nia has mentioned she’s two weeks late, he’s hoping she’s pregnant.

Rather then letting her surprise him with good news, Sam takes it upon himself to TAKE THE TEST FOR HER in secret (watch the video below to find out how he manages that!)

Then, after winding her up for a while, he records her reaction… and it’s priceless!

Congratulations to the happy couple!
