Red Scare

As anyone who's ever been in a pub fight with 15 Irish soccer players (or Package & Rock) knows, picking on redheads is a bad idea. But now, it's also a scientifically proven fact. In 2005, researchers at McGill University in Montreal discovered that the gene responsible for about 70% of all redheads is linked to higher-than-average levels of pain tolerance. Scientists found that redheads can withstand up to 25% more pain than their non-redheaded counterparts.

No study yet to explain the redhead's extremely large reproductive organs. Until that study, it is a burden we all must bear.
