    In the immortal words of Zachariah Dracoulis:
    Walks up to the podium
    Rolls for eloquence
    Critical failure
    ...
    Aleron's a cunt

    Zach got a three day ban for "violating community standards"... oh the irony...

    That's pretty hilarious. Not sure I'd go into another man's cave and start crap. I'd rather focus on writing great fiction. :)

    Of course not! What he should have done was roll for stealth or disguise, then persuasion, THEN for eloquence when all those failed.
    None the less, I wish I knew the backstory on it or if it was an unprovoked [by something other than the current climate] act.

    He posted it on his page following the acceptance of the trademark... Then got banned a few days later when someone reported him...

    That’s stupid. It’s like the time I pissed off a friend on Facebook by making a joke on my personal FB wall about lopsided boobs.

    She was PISSED. Her response to me was “dude you can’t post shit like that my family reads my FB!” - then the post mysteriously disappeared a few days later. I don’t even know if she realized that I’d posted it on my page instead of written it on hers.

    Woah... But seeing as boobs can be different sizes, some must be lopsided... Did you remember to add references?

    Apparently that's natural, since most people have slightly larger pecs on the side of their dominant hand, and people are generally symmetrical anyways.

    Yeah. I’ve never heard about the pectoralis being the cause though - it’s more along the lines of humans only being generally symmetric. Our symmetry isn’t perfect though, which is part of why the uncanny valley exists.

    Perfectly symmetrical people just look weird to us no matter how detailed and lifelike a computer generated image is.

    Breasts sometimes grow at different rates, they don't always grow the same on each side at once... Sometimes they end up different sizes... Less I think to do with muscle and more with genetic makeup and general physiology

    That’s just a SWAG (Scientific Wild Ass Guess) because we really don’t know what causes people to be slightly asymmetric. But *everything* on the human body is slightly asymmetric, boobs included.

    What we consider to be attractive are people who most closely approximate perfect symmetry though, which is weird considering that perfect symmetry is one of the biggest contributing factors to the uncanny valley.

    Don't know if it would apply, but, think of a twelve string guitar. It's like two six string guitars, but, each pair is slightly off from one another, the two making a richer sound than one string alone would create.

    Visually it could be the same thing, with the visual center reacting to the resonance between the concept of perfect symmetry, with the slightly off from perfect reality.

    Nobody knows, so that theory is just as good as anyone else’s, I guess?
