There used to be a BSS IRC channel but it was mostly the same jerkoffs talking about how terrible BSS was and why did anyone ever bother posting there and poo poo. I have a chatlog somewhere of one dude freaking out over the term "weak sauce" and generally being a huge oval office.

I would have worn the gently caress out of that.

Once, I received a Star Wars Cad Bane action figure in the mail after stating that he was loving terrible. I assume they got my info from BSSSS at some point.

My father had a massive personality shift about 10 years ago that lead to us actually forming a now wonderful relationship and we chalk it up to an undiagnosed stroke. The research my sister did told us it is actually quite common for strokes/head injuries to cause personality shifts.

I mean, okay, I can expect a racist rear end in a top hat would say those words about those characters, but how can a guy be socially deaf enough to not shut up the first time people get upset? Crazy.

One of the cops who showed up was black so it got pretty hilarious from there. Especially with my going "SAY THAT WORD NOW."

I wish. I was in a pizza place a year or so ago and the two or three guys in the booth over were honestly having a Goku v Superman argument. That said, in about twenty minutes they had come to an agreement on who would win and the conversation ended.

When I was working at a bar I would always get poo poo from my coworkers for being the nerd and they'd ask me stupid questions like "Batman vs Doctor Doom" all the time. I recently went back and they now have a comic book trivia night and it blew my mind.

They killed him off back in the Fatal Attractions crossover in like 1993. He got the Legacy Virus from giving a mutant CPR I think. People were really upset about it back then too. He's a very, very easy character to kill off because whoops, looks like that was just a dupe! The real Madrox is back, everybody!

So don't sweat it. He'll be back.

Right, the infection happened around that crossover though, right? I remember him being a weird shut in for months.

I think they later revealed he was infect in X-Factor #87 or something. I think it's an editor's note in #100.

I bought a few long boxes the other day at a garage sale, didn't see anything great but at the price I paid I can turn them in at work for store credit and it will be totally worthwhile. So I just hauled them into the store tonight to work on them and look what I found!

The story is they were in a pub throwing out the most insane names they could think of for super heroes and Steve tossed out Dog Welder and it stuck in the back of Garth's head for a decade or so.

It's about the culture of child abuse in Hollywood, and it names names. He's front and center, and it talks about how he employed a convicted sex offender who used to work at Nickelodeon for abusing kids on X-Men. I think he may have sued over the movie, I know he sued somebody over the accusations. At one point they do mention the threat of murder as a coercion tactic but don't mention him specifically in that section.

I'll have to watch it. Even though they retracted the accusation Renfro's family was pretty sure Singer was involved in his death.
