Speaking of Spidey being stupid

Rocket is really smooth with his bullshit. Kinda like when I told my manager yesterday I couldn't stay an extra half hour after my shift was over (Because it was directly his loving fault the project wasn't done by then)

"If a woman lies and says I sexually harassed her, how can I prove it's not true?"

Again, this is not how this works.

"Believe women" doesn't mean "immediately condemn any man who is accused of anything by a woman ever," it means "do not dismiss an accusation right away because it comes from a woman." The woman still has to prove the accusation is true, and as we've already established, all she has is her word and some superbly flimsy evidence which wouldn't stand up to any serious scrutiny.

Keep in mind this is from 1999. MeToo was 20 years away and sexual harassment was just coming into focus as a serious thing as opposed to having a lecherous boss being acceptable.

I know Peter's a new Yorker, but five stories tall is pretty big for the purpose of using spider powers to gently caress off and go home. Or beat a crimeboss and his 2 goons like a superhero would

It's a good thing the guys chasing Spider-Man know he's just crawling up the stairs endlessly and aren't checking to see if he's hiding in any of the rooms on any of the floors they're on.

And I mean this unironically because they too are aware that Newspaper Spider-Man is a complete moron who would never think of that.

He could also web up a Spider-Glider and fly away scott free, but brain-damaged Peter isn't very imaginative when his life is in semi-danger

even if he cannot handle the incredible threat of three dudes with guns, he could have left the building as soon as the cowboy mafia entered and ran away on foot. that's the point, really. nsm always has lots of options but is held back by his all-consuming ineptitude. then his enemies mostly sort of defeat themselves, so in some funny way i guess he wins.

So what are all of Spidey's options?
1) Fight 3 goons; Webbing up their guns, them, etc
2) Just hide in the corner of some room until they leave.
3) Run to one of the sides of the building, get out through the window and run.
4) Get out the way he came in and just backtrack from how he got here for a speedy escape.
5) Reach the roof and wait for them to open the door; web them to the door. Run.
6) Take Horatio hostage
