    Radiolab - X-Men Vs. Tariff Law

    Any fans of the Radiolab podcast?

    The last episode (titled Mutant Rights) is about the strange and humorous true story of how Marvel petitioned the US government to allow their characters to be classified as non-human in order to bypass additional import fees that apply to all "Human Dolls":

    That was pretty funny and scary since it happened. Ridiculousness on all sides.
    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

      When people import modern day Megos I wonder if they classify them all as "Human Dolls", or if they have different options for different characters?

        Hmmmm....

        It's funny 'cos it goes against the theme of the books the characters are from.
