The second dumbest thing about that storyline was that NSM seriously thought it would work. The dumbest thing about it by far was that it actually did.

Much like Squirrel Girl has the unwritten secondary power of being undefeatable, NSM has the additional power of being so dumb, other people start following his "logic" unquestioningly.

I was not ready for "also it doesn't Really work, just turns him off and on again a bunch, which gives him a heart attack. The end."

I can't even try to get mad at how dumb the cops are. I can't internalize them being that stupid. They clearly heard everything, understand the whole situation, heard MJ call out Peter's name, and simply decided it's easier to let a homeless man die than deal with anything.

Possibly the most accurate portrayal of NYC police in media.

Spider-Man, your cover story is "I broke into the building and rescued Parker." That's what Kingpin and his goons believe. The police at least saw you carry someone. What do you lose by telling Carole "I rescued him and got him somewhere safe." Perhaps it's an issue that your street clothes are full of webs and probably will be for another half hour or more, so you can't show up immediately?

Wait Kingpin ran into a Wall and that was the end of the fight?

Spider-Man is so incredibly bad at his job The cops are gonna continue kicking homeless people out of the park (well they were anyway) and searching for the werewolf because as far as they know it's still out there.

MJ has an attention span as short as Peter's. Wagner told you how he became a werewolf! Well okay, I guess only we the audience saw the flashback, but still. It doesn't take a brain genius to realize him saying "I found out they were real when I went to Romania, and now I become a werewolf" means "I was attacked by a werewolf." Then again, this is the NSM universe, I suppose it does take a brain genius.

Jesus Christ this werewolf story is incredible just for the level of from Spidey over the whole thing. HOW IS HE FINISHED, PETER!?!? HOW IS HE FINISHED!?!?!?!

well, luke did partially resist an order due to his willpower. that would never happen with peter, and he does technically have super powers too.

I'm picturing some guy hearing some noise and going out into an alley to check it out and there's Spider-Man rooting through his garbage. "drat Spider-Mans get out of here! Shoo! Shoo!" and Spider-Man skitters away.

It really is true that contact with Newspaper Spider-Man makes you dumber. So dozens of pictures of a naked old man. Great.

Peter, MJ, that man died! He contracted a horrible curse, desperately tried to stop himself, and then Spider-Man killed him doing some dumbass bullshit involving a planetarium. I'm not asking you to pay for the funeral or track down his next of kin or whatever, but the least you can do is not drool over the new TV you're going to get after you sell the photo of his cursed, twisted form.

"You see, sometimes Spider-Man doesn't want to follow supervillains all over New York, so some of his spider-tracers are set up to lead his enemies to him." "Wouldn't that mean they show up at inconvenient times, and figure out his secret identity?" "It might, but almost all of his enemies are as lazy as he is."

in theory spider tracers are supposed to be devices that he can detect with his spider sense. but well, this is nsm. a gadget whose sole purpose is to ensure his wife can come pick him up when he gets lost is more useful.

Meanwhile the police continue to pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into increased patrols, crackdowns on civil liberties*, massive overtime bills etc continuing the search for the werewolf they have no reason to think isn't still out there. * They'd actually do this one on their base salary. The © notice is the icing on the cake!
