Reply to Every Halloween the girl in the mask wants candy and nobody knows where she comes from. by Archives-H
We gave out those potato chip bags this year. I wonder if those would be okay too? Or does it have to be candy?

Reply to TIL of Henry Paget, Earl of Uxbridge, who had his leg blown off by a cannon in the Battle of Waterloo. It was put in a shrine in the garden of the house where he was amputated, becoming a local tourist attraction. by 1945BestYear
Skinny jeans got nothing on those Regency right pants.

Reply to comment by xDaBaDee in I saw in a video that chimpanzees and gorillas do not knuckle-walk in the same way, but they didn't explain what the difference is. Could someone elaborate on the physiological/anatomical differences? by [deleted]
I was really surprised to find that moment of suspension wasn't when the legs were all outstretched, but when they were gathered under the horse, just before the hind legs touch down.
Some dogs have a double suspension gallop which is more what Iwas expecting. All four legs are off the ground when gathered under them, and again when they're all stretched out.
