I see them daily on my way to work as well, and I've heard the same thing. Apparently one is shorter because she would file down one of her heels to be shorter than the other; that's how she perfected her hip swinging walk.

You were the one who raised the point about living in the Midwest, where you're all fatties.
Ludovin provided the implication that she must be underfed.

More to the point, waist-hip ratio is in fact a measure of obesity, and may be a better indicator than BMI for your overall health. You're supposed to be thinner at the

I'm baffled by the idea that you've never seen someone who's thin. I wouldn't have even given her waistline a thought if not for your comment. She's fit, that's all. The idea that anyone who's skinny must be starving herself is pretty ridiculous.

Apparently America is now second only to Mexico in being the fattest

Except no.
That isn't remotely what she's saying.

She explicitly mentions that the guys at the con weren't making any inappropriate come-ons. Issues with the length of her skirt seem to be coming exclusively from other women, apparently women like you.
The fact that it's a geek icon is causing her grief only because

I think Damon will give it to Jeremy and it will somehow let him stay alive.
Calling it now.

I get that they need to have every character on virvain as a plot device, but it's one that doesn't make any sense at all. It was a brilliant crazy new idea when they learned it from Katherine, who only started because she'd been desperately running from originals her entire life. I spent the entire episode shouting

That backdoor pilot for The Originals was terrible.
The last thing I need right now is a new show that I'll hate every minute of while watching religiously.

Now playing

Pfft that's nothing. Try playing with an MRI all day.

You don't need to do that much tapdancing to relate it back to the 9th doctor.
Clara's mother died around the same time he met Rose.

"You can always see more than fifty percent of the moon"
"You can't see more than fifty percent at a time"

io9 headlines continue to amaze me.

Kerrigan is one of my all time favourite villains. A lot of that was because the last time she claimed to be free of the overmind, she turned around and murdered everybody.

Rotating the image like that makes it really unclear that those are drops falling from the other two streams. This should have a video.

Your girlfriend is an egg?

I much prefer this explanation. Maybe whatever propulsion system their spaceship uses is still experimental, and they knew whoever went would be getting a more than fatal dose?

Except since the Earth is more massive than Mars, it requires more energy to give it that inertia at all, which is why they fall at the same rate, and why this theory makes no sense. If it flies in the face of every experimental result we've ever done, there's a problem here.

Oh well sure if you actually read the article then I just look like a moron.

...it's supposed to be the 80's? I don't know where you got that impression.

We're currently season 2 now. I'd definitely start from the beginning.

Blizzard has some of the best CG cinematics in the industry. The fact that they're going live action for this saps out pretty much all of my enthusiasm.

Kotaku's community has never had a pristine reputation. The switch from approved and starred commenters to Kinja has opened the floodgates for faceless trolls. Can you comment on this change, and what you can/can't/will/will not do about it?
