Professor Wobble McFidget Discovers That Yawning Is Actually Contagious Through Phone Calls
Study confirms you can catch a yawn even through voicemail, which is 'deeply unsettling.'
Professor Wobble McFidget has discovered that yawning is contagious even during phone calls. 'I yawned, and the person on the other end yawned,' McFidget explained. 'Then I yawned again. It's an auditory contagion.' The study also found that reading the word 'yawn' makes people yawn, which is happening to you right now. McFidget's next research will investigate whether thinking about yawning counts.
