Oh, give me a clone
Of my own flesh and bone
With its Y chromosome changed to X
And after it’s grown
Then my own little clone
Will be of the opposite sex

(Chorus:) Clone, clone of my own
With its Y chromosome changed to X
And when I’m alone
With my own little clone
We will both think of nothing but sex

Oh, give me a clone

A normal male has two sex chromosomes, an X from his mother and a Y from his father; a normal female has two X chromosomes, one from each parent. You can create a female version of a man by replacing the Y chromosome with a second copy of the existing X chromosome. However, note that the resulting woman could not be…

I would think the super rich would be able to purchase illegal “top priority” transponders that would usually be reserved for heads of state and the Pope etc...

If you quit io9 last week because of the negativity, then didn’t you, in particular, log on just to spew your negativity? You also didn’t actually comment on any of the merits of the show.

After Hurricane Katrina, my whole world was covered in roofing nails because every house, in every subdivision, needed roof repair or replacement.

Harlem and Hell’s kitchen are both neighborhoods in Manhattan but Harlem is on the East side of Upper Manhattan and Hell’s Kitchen is on the West side of Midtown.

Naked + onion ring + toss = now that’s offensive

It’s “Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra”.

PUT OVER into a PROMO, you well-spoken MARK. A wrestler who doesn’t wrestle is still a wrestler.

When the POTUS visits your town, it is a burden on the local police and EMS services (which often includes the Fire Depts). Not only is this burden placed on the people who could be better deployed doing anything else, it hits the tax payers in overtime that has to be payed to them for doing it. That overtime is, of…

I work in the tech industry. I consume vast amounts of science fiction and fantasy media: books, movies, comics, video games, table top, web comics, etc... I play D&D every week. I helped my wife pick a flintlock pistol for her Pride and Prejudice vs Zombies cosplay for the third night of DragonCon two hours ago.

I agree, I think Lando and Han, who are new friends, team up to heist a freighter pushing Imperial Cargo containers. It is almost entirely empty except for one prisoner cell containing Chewbacca. Shenanigans and Engineering ensue. Last scene of the movie:

I hope that since Lando is in the story, we get to see a big heist when the Falcon is stolen from the Millenium Trade Consortium ...

Called it!

Salmon ought to stop this. I conch believe what I’m herring.

You have time to mullet over.
