Time Magazine Put Donald Trump on Their Short List for Person of the Year, and the Internet Got an Amazing Unplanned GIF

Time Magazine named Donald Trump to the short list of their Person of the Year 2015 this week. The photoshoot for the issue was done months ago, but with the article being published and having basically everything on Donald Trump's nomination campaign trending online, the internet only just got the gift of the above GIF.

Beyond the obvious hilarity of watching Trump dodge a bald eagle at his desk, there is the beautiful irony that a hopeful Presidential Nominee was almost attacked by a bald eagle named Uncle Same.

Others also replied to @Time by using some of Trump's recent rhetoric with the GIF:

Watch the full behind-the-scenes of Time's photoshoot with Trump below.



As always, Trump had his own last words:

Apple Doesn't Want You to Use Your iPhone to Weigh Stuff, But This Clever Developer Found a Great Way Around It

3D touch on the iPhone 6 allows you to weigh things directly on your phone, but for some reason, Apple doesn't want people building scale apps. Many have tried, but been rejected by the app store because Apple says "the concept of a scale app is not appropriate for the app store," whatever that means. Asaf Avidan Antonir built a simple game that uses 3D touch to move a dot between lines (think Flappy Bird), but the important part is the "training" function. Within training mode, you can figure out how much force you're exerting to practice moving the dot, or just use the thing as a scale for...whatever you want.

Tinder Experiment Shows That When it Comes to Getting Men's Attention, Size Does Matter

Cosmetic surgery group MYA conducted an experiement using this woman's image to create two fake Tinder profiles. The profiles were identical except for two things, the researchers digitally enhanced "Carla's" cleavage in one profile to see if it would get a different response. Each profile swiped right on 1000 men.

The larger busted Carla got 34% more matches. They also got different interactions from the men she matched with. 

Men seemed more interested in getting to know "A-cup Carla"

The more voluptious Carla got many more comments on her appearance.

The researchers concluded that going up one cup size would boost attractiveness to men by 9%. Keep in mind that this experiment was run by a cosmetic surgery group. 

Even MYA itself warns that, "while this was a fun experiment, it’s important that if you’re seriously considering breast enlargement that you do so for your own body confidence and personal choice, not to please the opposite sex."
