Missy Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Last night I spent a few hours with Niki, Tim, and Niki's cousin Andrew. This kid, who's nine, kept schooling me on comic book trivia. He knew that Sandman and The Vulture were two of Spider-Man's earliest foes, he spoke about Owlman being a cool Batman villain, we talked about when Spider-Man grew his extra arms, and so much more. Whenever he'd mention something, I'd have to ask myself, "Is that right?" And as I thought about it, it dawned on me, "Holy shit! He's right!" It was so cool being outdone by a child, 'cause it means his mind is flooded with all of these characters and stories. It nearly brought a happy tear to my eye.

Dread Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 When I kill ants inside my house or outside my door, I don't flush them or toss them in the garbage. I put their corpses outside the door as a warning to other ants. I believe this is working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George W. Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 My roommate and I just finished showing her 7-year old son the original theatrical release of Star Wars for the first time. Jeff: He's scary. (referring to Chewbacca) Me: He's in the LEGO games you play all the time. Jeff: But he's not hairy in LEGO. Real life is hairy, scary, and creepy. [Roommate and I exchange look] Me: I'm putting that on a T-Shirt. Roommate: ...and selling it at cons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylerQ91 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I had a dream about earth-2 last night. Mike had taken over the world with James and Ian acting as General and Prime minister. Together they banned non-earth-2 Podcasts and destroyed Milwaukee. Very strange night.... -Skyler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ava Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I just watched an episode of Scooby Doo guest starring Batman and Robin. I guess Batman realized that he was jealous of Robin's beautiful bare legs and decided to show off his own. Because in one shot he was definitely pantless. Underwear and boots, yes. Tights, no. No, no, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ava Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Yeah. There were two Joker/Penguin episodes, though. This was the one where they tried to steal a rubber flying suit. "The Caped Crusader Caper" is what it was called, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ava Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Also, Batman's legs are way sexier than Robin's will ever be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koete Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 That's the one I was thinking of. Bat-Cookies were part of the crime fighting gear as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prez Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Found these via Tom Brevoort's Facebook. They're supposedly in the Marvel men's room. http://twitpic.com/aq199 http://twitpic.com/aq1e8 Those are awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I just walked into the pantry and forgot what I walked in there for. I looked for a few minutes and then realized I was looking for my hat. Which is in the closet, not the pantry. I'm going to go and hose catshit out of my carport now...

Nicolette Opal Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Arrived home to find a UPS InfoNotice on the door. First delivery attempt. Signature needed. While I've been ordering a slew of stuff for my new place (WOOO finding deals online and not having to schlep out to brick-and-mortar stores!), I'm not expecting anything; my last purchases (a large, carpeted LP case and a p-mount stylus cartridge for my record player) arrived last week. I checked the online tracking through UPS's website, and it says the package originated in Brooklyn, New York. No company is listed. Weird.
