Reading body language is far from being psychic. He was squared away, chest out, shoulders held high, looking like cock of the walk then he melted into a slumped mess when he saw me.

This isn’t a study by actual scientists, but mere academics.
My friend Barry insists it is pronounced “corpse”.
Does Neanderthal DNA make you stupider? Do you have any links?
I saw that too. Although, it’s easy to intimidate a toddler.
- GOOGLE Search up the info
