Sean, I had that problem with the CBS player when trying to watch the unaired episodes of Smith. I gave up trying.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah. I was so happy that updating WMP seemed to at least solve the hanging/buffering problem, I was willing to overlook the problems loading the next segment.
It's just frustrating to have the problem come back.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Hardly surprising, given (a) legs much stronger than arms and (b) shoes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hmm. I'd like to see the raw numbers for that survey. I wonder how many times someone tried to use feet and fucked up--it does introduce more of a balance issue.
Also, are we talking kicks from distance, or stomping on the head of someone we've managed to get on the ground, or what? Unless you fight the whole fight with one weapon, the results are misleading.
If I were to pick, I'd pick elbows--but that assumes the fight has gotten close. I wouldn't come in close just for the opportunity to use them. But once you do? Very good risk:payoff ratio.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Next, they should do a study on what kind of shoe does the most damage.

Golf shoes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Most kicks are going to happen with the top of the shoe, or the toe, so what's happening on the sole has less effect. Also, once you get to stomping, cleats et al are just gravy. The meat is the crushing and breaking.
Stilettos could be cool--just that the rest of the fight in them would suck.
I'd go with steel toed boots.
