I saw an Air China 747 today at JFK, I was wondering if Kim was on it.

I flew on one of those from ATL to Heathrow. Might have been a little drunk when I got on board.

If only they’d come out, done this routine, said it was all a big joke, then resigned.

His father did the same thing, plus a bouffant hairstyle. It seems self consciousness over height runs in the family.
On the other hand, at least Kim Jong-il never had plastic surgery to make himself look more like his father, that’s kind of weird, even for them.

This is what happens when the country is always on the verge of a famine (and suffered an actual famine in the 90's). Same genetics as their wealthy southern brothers, but the constant absence of nutrition made them shorter. Koreans already being a ethnicity on the short side doesn’t help either

None of that applies to the Kim family, as theu have never had to feel the effects of famine.

Which one is Frankenstein, and which one is his monster? Could go either way to me.

Kim is the doctor, clearly, because Trump is nothing but a construction of other world leaders (Putin, Theresa May (through Farage) and other right wing manipulators) ... although now, just now, I realize that Kim might be Igor. The doctor has yet to be unmasked. But dance he will ... did I mention that this entire Trump thing exhausts me?

Trump will send Air Force One to pick up Kim next time.

Plastic surgery? This is not a story that I have heard.

The North Korean government denies it, but it’s been widely reported in South Korea that he’s had as many as six operations to increase his resemblance to Kim Il-Sung.

Very strange. Helps keep the god thing going.

It definitely helps build legitimacy. Very young, hardly even seen in public until shortly before his father died, not much time to build up a power base within the party, so it’s crucial that the public see him as the natural and inevitable leader of the nation. Also, Kim il-Sung’s time in power is looked upon nostalgicaly as a golden era for the country, when generous Soviet subsidies prevented famines, so associating himself with that time period has advantages as well.

We’ll see if things get away from him or not. Seems like he is taking risks.

Of the Kim family? They’ve been running the show for seventy years and before that there was no North Korea, so the whole famine making populations shorter doesn’t apply to them.

I would have expected it to take longer than 70 years to shorten an entire population

Given a large enough famine malnutrition could alter the physiology of an entire populace within one generation as diet plays a big role in gene expression. Here’s a fairly easy to digest article which covers the topic.

Wow. But isn’t Scientific American a liberal publication because science?
