It's raining, it's pouring, Minesweeper's boring, and my coworker has apparently decided she isn't coming in today without calling, no it doesn't scan, shut up.
She'd acquired a rather decent-sized collection of gloves, just to torment her favorite student. It started with the bright yellow dish gloves. She took unholy glee in snapping on a pair of latex exam gloves she'd copped from the med lab. When she got particularly enthusiastic, she suited up in the gear she used for restoring books.
Watching his eyes widen in terror was worth it every time.
Did you know that the BMI scale was created in 1840? It's a simple height and weight ratio number that takes nothing besides those two factors into account. Arnold Schwarzenegger has a BMI of 32, into the grotesquely obese category. Most actors hover over the supposed healthy BMI of 25.
Tom Cruise -26 Matt Damon -26 Antonio Banderas -27 Vin Diesel -27 George Clooney -28 Will Smith -28
Tell me that ANY of those guys are overweight. Conversely, almost all female celebrities on the list are considered underweight, including Angelina Jolie and Catherine Zeta Jones. I'm sorta betting they lied about their weight, because no way in hell are they underweight. (Except if Angelina is skipping meals out of guilt again.) Salma Hayek is pretty low too, but she's shorter than I am.
And it's 5am, so I doubt I'm making any sense at all.
In those cases, especially Schwarzenegger (and Smith if the measurement was taken after he bulked up to play Mohammed Ali), it has to be muscle weight.
Not sure about the girls. Maybe they'd be slightly underweight for their height, because they are all svelte.
