I can't believe I'm managing to force myself through class with this drat cold.

you should get one of those brain eating bacteria tubs to clear out the sinuses.

You mean comic books?

I believe he's referring to this incident where amoeba growing in a faulty water heater entered two people's nasal passages via neti pot and devoured their brain.

That's just the latest Hydra plot

Can I have a superpowered item? Like, say, a slice of pizza that never runs out?

But then there'd be the great responsibility to give it up to Galactus, or at least let it constantly be used to feed hungry people in a constant stream of pizza, or perhaps as an infinite fuel source.

That's a comic book character my dude.

Hey, can anyone give me a recommendation?

My sister (who's about 12) is really currently into Harley Quinn. However she's more into the idea of Harley Quinn than the actual character. She didn't like B:TAS Harley much because she though Harley Quinn was sad and depressing instead of cool and I'm not particularly chomping at the bit to give her Sexy Fun Times Harley Quinn Murders The World.

Is there anything particularly good starring Harley Quinn that is generally fun and enjoyable without being too overt in the pandering or having her murder people randomly? (I know my sister well enough to know she'd dislike the latter part.)

Unfortunately, outside of the Batmam TAS comics, there really isn't anything she'd be too into. It might be best to get her a different character, maybe the Cassandra Cain Batgirl trades?

Tumblr's only as bad as the people you follow. I much prefer it to any other social media.

I'd say the same about most social media.

Also, apparently Anthropologists Are On The Verge Of Figuring Out How You�re Supposed To Read Tumblr Comments.

Well, yeah, I'm just saying that Tumblr specifically is nowhere near as bad as people make it out to be, and it really depends on the people you actually follow.

I also remember that Tumblr actually fixed that issue with the comments. Now it looks like this:

And Tumblr users complained about the change despite it being an outright improvement

John Stewart might be a better example of what they were talking about, since I think he's now the Green Lantern most young people think of now.

At least that is contained to the internet for now.

No, they were great.

I'll always get a kick out of when they showed Superman vs. Goku II at a convention in front of a pro-Goku crowd and streamed it online. Goku, in his most powerful form, does the Kamehameha and everyone yells with him and marks out like crazy as the beam engulfs Superman.

Then it cuts to a shot of Superman's silhouette casually walking through the blast and the crowd lets loose this loud, confused and horrified scream. The dream is dead.

This is something I need to see.

Saitama is a joke character, it's like saying "lol Impossible Man wins all fights"

Not that there's anything wrong with OPM, it's good and cool. But if you're seriously committed to a "Who Would Win?" mentality it's not a legit answer.

You'd think that people would recognize that, but I have some bad news for you.

I don't know, that cover says 25 cents.

People are for sure misunderstanding if they're taking BMB as attacking her.
He's right to defend against the accusation that the medium is the real problem, but he should have conveyed it in more than three words. Maybe a "Sorry you're going through this. I can't imagine... but don't give up on comics. It's shitheads," and then "It's not comics"
Apparently they talked more on it, but everything's deleted.

To be fair, I thinking Twitter's character limit encourages those kind of brief comments, which is why I don't like using it.

That was surreal, I got a text from my Mom saying she took my sister to work, but I heard the shower running. So I thought somebody broke into our house to use the shower, so I got the biggest dog we have, and went into the bathroom only to find it was my sister and she didn�t go to work today.

It also turned out that my sister thought I was somebody that broke into the house as well.
