- Either way, they've been around for a long time! At least one of the Astounding-era early SF writers overused them in character descriptions, which is where I first ran into them.
- Google Books ngram viewer has "ectomorph" shooting up in popularity around 1940. Weirdly, it has "endomorph" with a low-end vogue starting in 1820 -- when I thought both words originated -- before shooting up for real in 1940.
- "mesomorph" has its initial bump in 1920 before joining the other two in a 1940 steep climb.

- OMG. for how ever many years that you've been mentioning the bonus panel, I've clicked through, seen nothing, thought you meant "look at the whole site." Because this one was about gamification, I noticed the red button for the first time and clicked it, and saw an actual bonus panel.
