The Way to get the nobel prize in psychology

[jayblack]

Here's a thought: Create a scene in a videogame that is as controversial as it can possibly get to literally piss off EVERYONE in the world, Not just... lets say, the Russians (i.e. Modern Warfare 2). I mean every single person on the face of mother earth. F-ing hard, eh? Well that's why this achievement would earn you the nobel prize in psychology, guaranteed.

You're tits are gigantik n huv a tiny willy. (that would piss people off right? )

I added the bad spelling for the grammar nazi's. It's not full proof...yet.

I suppose this might work. I think you'd then have to do a statistical study on the cut scenes effects and explain why it offended everybody, and the psychology behind it. Then maybe.

Congratulations of your first post.

They are doing statistical studies on everything these days. But i doubt it would go that far because there is always the argument ''it's just a game''
And i would like to congratulate you on having the best username ever!

Make the head honchos of each nation have their brains blown out in slow motion maybe? While the murderers are eating babies? And beating puppies and kittens with spiked clubs? How offensive can you get?

 

[ALLxGHILLIEDxUP]

You would have to explain why you used said scene and the effects of the scene on the minds of those who are exposed to it, if you could even create a scene that could effectively offend every culture without getting yourself killed and the scene banned.
But other than that it would seem possible.

Welcome to the Escapist. Lets see, it would involve a kitten cannon.

I do not understand how that would qualify for you for a nobel prize, an award given for actual achievement.

And... Welcome. May you never leave.

How would pissing everyone off win you the nobel prize, exactly?

 

[Binerexis]

This is easy.

Have people from all races and all sexual orientations insulting each other whilst naked before resulting in some kind of twisted blood bath. Depending on who you determine is victorious depends on what kind of offensive joke you make. Then all the centres of religion (Jesus, Buddha etc) come down in extremely stereotypical ways before a generic 'I represent mankind' character comes in and shits all over them before spewing every crappy internet meme and/or joke repeatedly for a good couple of hours where some of them WILL be repeated. All of this, however, is just a front to subliminally implant the following into your brain forever:

Everyone is now completely pissed off. Congratulations.


EDIT: And there's no way that this would win a Nobel Prize nor would the concept of it.

I guess you could also somehow resurrect Alfred Nobel (netting you the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine) and provide a lengthy dissertation on why the Nobel Prize in Psychology is essential to the maintenance of world peace (netting you the Nobel Prize in Peace), maybe put your reasoning into a novel on whichever topic is politically hip right now for the Nobel Prize in Literature, and if you manage to convince the old man to instate the Psychology category, go ahead with your idea.

Although with three Nobel Prizes in the bag, why you would need another one?

Thank you for pointing this out. I was reading all these posts wondering when they created a Nobel Prize in Psychology... so I guess convincing the Nobel Committee to create a new category may be a psychological feat in itself.

There is no Nobel for psychology. I'm Swedish, so you can trust me on that point. However, all one would have to do is create an "award for outstanding achievements in the field of psychology to honor the memory of Alfred Nobel". They did that for economy, but people were so confused concerning the question of whether it was a proper Nobel prize or not that nobody has done it since.

 

[jayblack]

By doing that the committee would have to admit that you´ve created a "Universal Weapon of Mass Anger Introduction" of some kind. Still, that depends if they are able to do that for the sake of science or just refuse because you pissed them off that bad . BTW: did´nt know that there isn´t a prize for that specific category, sorry (and thx for the comments).

Fatal flaw in your plan.

How the hell are you going to offend white, male, straight athiests?
