Doctor Who official channel's commitment to the bit. Mavity.

I knew Wild Blue Yonder was going to be weird and scary, but I really underestimated the mavity of the situation.

Changing gravity to mavity and keeping the change through the episode is a great gag. The Doctor still calling it gravity for a second because he experiences time differently is phenomenal detail

(a reference to the newest DW episode :D<3)

Holy shit they really are committing to mavity

♪ Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone else's game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes and leap

It's time to try defying mavity… ♫

People who haven't watched the latest Doctor Who Christmas Specials truly cannot understand the mavity of this post.

I’d totally watch it…

[spacewives-in-spacetime]

we talk about the doctor naming things - bootstrap paradox and all - but donna naming a fundamental force that enables us to survive "mavity" is just fucking golden

[soyboysace]

i hope they never change mavity if it turns out to not be a significant part of the setup for the giggle. like no explanation in the future episodes ever again. new fans will watch future episodes and be confused by the word and amazed at how stupidly long we can maintain a running joke in canon

Guys, guys, guys…

Mavity falls.

That’s it. That’s the post.

Okay, but. Mavity. Mavity. Mavity.

I pity physics students in the Doctor Who universe. The universal gravitational constant? M. The acceleration due to gravity on earth? m. A big mass? M. A small mass? m.

And you get this *lovely* equation:

mm = MmM/r^2

Are we talking about millimeters? Candy? Trying to form bizarre emoticons?

But they’re different ms and Ms. So you resort to subscripts and it takes forever to type and you always forget them on exams. And you curse Isaac Newton because, like, couldn’t he have chosen a better letter to start it with? Zavity? Nah, the z-axis…Gravity. Gravity’s nice. And g and G aren’t taken! Why couldn’t he have named it gravity?

And when Shirley Anne Bingham discovers that this torture she suffered throughout uni, her PhD, while doing scientific equations necessary for the preservation of human life under immense time pressure…was the Doctor and Donna’s fault? Well, it’s a good thing she wasn’t ever big on hero worship, because the duo have made her mathematical life hell.

Donna, singing in the car: I think I'll tryyyyyy defying Mavity!

Fourteen:

Fourteen:

Fourteen: *starts singing along* And you can't pull meeee dowwn!
