Also the show has established that Barry can grab people while moving at superspeed and not leave their limbs lying around where they were standing before, go faster than the speed of sound without a sonic boom, and so on due to, um, Speed Force! (I'm guessing this literally is the answer though - he's not…

I dunno, "stealing expensive stuff that's probably insured" and "murdering random strangers*" do seem like they operate on different levels, morally.

He does have a code - but also he has a deal with Barry that he won't do it, with a lot of stuff resting on that. I mean, he knows exactly who the Flash is and there's a pretty explicit understanding between them about where the lines that you can't cross are.

I don't think the blur is heat, but it could be that it's a different energy release caused by the heat hitting the speed force and converting into something else like electricity or whatever due to something something speed force something something.

Maybe she just gave up on trusting anything he said after the previous lie, and so this isn't really even surprising to her that he would do it?

Haven't we already seen him vibrate through things, even?

Look it's really really really cold. If it wasn't would it be able to somehow create massive sheets of ice out of thin air rather than just freezing the moisture in the air around Barry, coating him in a thin frost? This is all just elementary physics.

Why is Cisco falling in love with the sister?

I kind of wish that instead of just leaping out and wishing for the best she'd just said "No you just run up the side of the building like I know you can and come in through the window to get me." I mean, leaping out is kind of unnecessary here.

It makes you wonder how they got the desk in there in the first place.

This show isn't even remotely close to good, but I can't help but love it anyway. It's like someone couldn't decide between making a gritty police drama and a wild soapy melodrama, and so they just decided to try to do both at once - as if someone tried to merge Homicide: Life On The Street with Revenge in the theory…

'Corn' traditionally just meant something around the size and shape of corn kernels - so you can get corns (on your feet), or you can use chunks of salt as a preservative and end up with corned beef, and so on. Using it to refer specifically to maize is pretty recent and (obviously from the examples) not universal.

This seems to me to be a really plausible explanation: if the regeneration energy hangs around a bunch it's not too hard to imagine someone 'healing' themselves a different face/body a couple times during the test phase. The Doctor just seems to have little to no conscious control over the process so the 10th Doctor…

I think the show has more or less stated in the past that the Doctor is just really bad at regenerating, and that Time Lords can usually just pick whatever features they want during the process. (Romana, I'm vaguely but unreliably remembering, spent a few minutes going "this one?… no… no maybe this one?…" when she…

From what I can remember the astronauts are there on the moon in the first place because of the massive effects its shifting gravity is having on earth…

I think he was just saying some nonsense because he didn't want to have to explain in actual detail what he was doing - I mean, neutrons pretty clearly don't actually have polarity. Also right after he says "Reversing the polarity of the neutron flow" he follows up with "I bet that means something, it sounds great."

I think he knew how to do that before that scene too - the point was that he was really ambivalent about it. The show makes pretty clear that he thinks of immortality as a mixed blessing at best, so it's very possible that he knew perfectly well that he could do that the entire time. But only later did he decide…

He was pretty clearly both letting congress have its way with those things (and was basically uninterested in environmental stuff), and doing a political calculation when it came to the environmental movement which was strong at the time - so really "created" is probably less accurate than "allowed to happen".

I'm pretty sure Trump's appeal has a lot more to do with the bit where he says really blatantly racist and misogynist things to a bunch of people who are steaming mad about the fact that they're supposed to not say those things in public anymore.

I was sort of hoping that Biden would show up, walk up to the podium on the stage, look around and say: "You know I'm still not running right? Why is this podium even here?" and then leave.
