As someone who works at NASA, a simple request:

Our space program is alive and well, though.

Sigh... alright, I'll be the guy.

Yeah dude, they're all good with evolution in the Catholic sphere.

As a younger, more insecure man, I would have made a self-conscious remark like "I'm not gay, but I'd totally do him."

Well, if you want to go that direction, all you have to do to kill HIV is expose it to air for a little while - its that easy to kill!

Wow, that's way better than how I was going to explain Mall Santas using the chubby Batmen from The Dark Knight!

Totally. And Netter was so good at drawing the perineum...

It means the cat's actually a cheetah. And way too smart to get stuck in some silly box with uranium and cyanide.

Maybe don't click on and then read a post titled 'Most mind-blowing surprise endings'?

This, a thousand times yes. I desperately wanted more VM, one of the only shows my fiancé introduced me to that I got completely sucked into. The dad in the series sells the whole thing.

Read some Daniel Quinn. Inequities in food availability can indeed be temporarily overcome, which leads to population growth in areas that cannot support the population already there, which in turn leads to more starvation, and so on.

A little indie film from the 70s called "Alien."

I've got to say, for me the thinness/weight issue actually kept me from upgrading to the 3... I've had my ipad 2 since June and I use it constantly, and IMO it's still SLIGHTLY too heavy to feel completely 'natural' to use lounging on the couch/in bed. Going heavier by any amount at all, even for a better screen,…

Im gonna have to step in and call bullshit on this urban legend/conspiracy crap.

Srsly? Director's Cut KOH is miles better than Robin Hood. Honestly RH is the only true letdown Scott film I can think of, and almost entirely a script problem so I'm truly hopeful...

A single survival wouldn't prove anything, but if you try and fail to kill yourself 100 times, you should start thinking that either A) God's watching out for you, or B) the MWI is correct, and though you've actually succeeded in offing yourself 100 times, you now find yourself by default in one of the few universes…

Read Daniel Quinn - there's TOO MUCH food. And too many people.

Yeah I figured as much, but then didn't 300 get some press on io9 back in the day? I'd say Spartacus has about as much historical vs fantasy breakdown as that did for the Battle of Thermopylae, at least from what I know of the historical Spartacus and the subsequent rebellion against Rome (not to mention the…

Hey io9, I love you guys, but given some of the weaker shows we get constant updates on (I'm looking at you, Alcatraz/Touch), why no spoilers/updates on Season 2 of Spartacus???
