I need to weigh myself properly once. Problem is, while my parents have a weighing thing (?), it's some weird electronic device that returns your blood sugar level and other random stuff after weighing.

[MaximumZero]

I'm short, but I'm also 97kg. I'm not all muscle, but I can throw around 136+kg people pretty easily.

136+kg people

Do you secretly live among a herd of wildebeest or something?

No. My sparring partners are just huge. One of my sparring partners is 6'4", 345lbs, and the other (the metal drummer) is 6'3", 315. When I joined a Muay Thai gym in New York, the resident "big guy" (6'1", 225lbs) challenged me to an MMA-rules sparring match. He was not happy when I flipped him up over my head from a waistlock.

184cm, 62kg. Miauw, if you only weighed 50kg at that height, you'd be extremely unhealthy. I'm nearly skeletally thin at this ratio.

Everyone except MZ and Vector is tall. This is strange.

I'm not sure, Arx, but I'm also 14 years old. I'm fairly sure that I eat enough.

If you think you eat enough, and you're not dead, you're almost certainly healthy, no matter what the statistics tell you. Especially if you're a teenager.

Croatian national TV has this annoyingly bombastic dubstep piece as an intro for every report on Ukraine.

Why??

[PanH]

You guys are so damn tall. I'm not even 170cm.

[MonkeyHead]

Being a 180 cm rectangular slab of 100 kgs of meat (I quite like the neatness of being bang on 100kgs) and fat has never felt so good large.

[Redzephyr01]

"Painting goblin."

[SealyStar]

Damn MZ is tiny...
199 cm/79 kg, by the way.

199 cm, really?

[Dutchling]

I know a guy who's 210. Like, since he was 15.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Frankly, I don't see how anybody could even survive being taller than 6'3'' or so. I'm about 6'0'' and it gets really inconvenient at times, if I were any taller I would just start to not fit due to being too far outside the standard deviation, like a healthy version of being morbidly obese.

[MorleyDev]

A lot of tall people develop a kind of "hunch", keeping the head lower and back bent. A necessity when most the people you talk to are below you (throwing off the hunch is a good was of asserting yourself with a single gesture of body language). I'm only 6''1 so it's not as much of an issue for me (9st exact for the curious, so ~57kg. Yeah, skinny bugger I know. BMI of 16.7, not that this is the most reliable measure of healthiness).

[MonkeyHead]

Yeah, my BMI says that I am morbidly obese... oh, wiat, thats kind of accurate. *shrugs*

[SealyStar]

I was musing on the Elder Scrolls criminal justice system when it hit me: you can get off of with murder for a relatively small thousand Septims or a short prison sentence. Yet in Morrowind and Oblivion, you are a prisoner, while at the beginning of Skyrim you are actually about to be executed.

So what heinous crimes could the Elder Scrolls PCs have committed before each game?

[LeoLeonardoIII]

I think it's more that they committed those crimes in the main part of the country where you get punished heavier for the same crimes. Or that the PC was banished / imprisoned as an unjustly large punishment for a small crime, possibly a political exile and/or punishment for banging a politician's wife.

Perhaps it's similar to that phenomenon where (and someone will link a TVT page) you fight a boss and he's tough but when you beat him he joins your party and he's super weak now for no reason. Your PC stole a sweetroll and got exiled to Morrowind, but after that a dozen murders most foul can be paid off with the earnings from one daedric loot drop and a trip to Creeper Merchant.

[SealyStar]

I imagine that my Redguard character in Skyrim got convicted of horse riding while black (HRWB).
