Steel Sponge

This is Steel Sponge. And yes, I'm questioning my sanity with my new username/avvie theme. But at the same time, I'm overjoyed that I've taken the opportunity to do this.

Triangle man hates particle man. They have a fight. Triangle man wins.

Trouble with the trolley, eh?

True pain is like realizing that you accidentally erased 654 words that you originally wrote for an epilogue you were planning on finishing before the end of a month during one of your previous writing sessions, and therefore having to start all over on it.

We have a challenge to EIDOS. In Tomb Raider III, create a storyline in which Lara gets breast cancer. Imagine the drama of a vulnerable Lara Croft still persisting on her worldly adventures despite her illness. It needs fleshing out, no pun intended, but we guarantee the gaming world would be shocked, stunned, and moved by the effort to make Lara's character more meaningful.

What are you looking at? Go away before I turn you into a toad or a snake!

While the first episode of DSotH for Riffing Theater hasn't been published yet and that some of you guys haven't started yet either, but I just want to let you guys know that after skimming through some of the story, I'm already thinking of changing my mind about CYPPtF being my worst. Also, be warned: Part 4 has some sort of suicide joke.

Who's that on the stairs? Is it J.K. Walking?

Why this trope exists

The simplest explanation is that the woman is simply bigger than the other female characters, or simply older and thus more fully grown and developed, or both at once — unlike a flat-chested woman, who is more likely to come across as small, young and more delicate. In American Superhero comics, this is often touted as the reason the Most Common Superpower exists—to establish the difference between younger girls and older women (however, as the trope became more common, there has been less and less distinction between the body types.) In any case, her greater general size leads to both larger breasts as well as greater leverage and muscle mass (not that you'll often see much physical evidence of the latter—compare the biceps on the ladies in the trope image, for instance). If all of the female characters are physically active and she is the oldest, it can also be assumed she's been actively building strength and learning how to use it longer than her juniors have.

You Can Finally Meet My Mom, L.

You caught me. Wait, what's that? I think it's your honor!

You see, Mr. Delicious is, well, a little...over-extended. Perhaps the Rax executives aren't paying him enough to compromise his integrity. On the other hand, you can't eat integrity, but you certainly can eat a hearty roast beef sandwich for 99 cents.
