    Superman

    A lot of people dismiss Superman as being "too powerful" or "unrelatable." They’ll say Batman is more relatable because he doesn’t have superpowers. But seriously, how many of us can actually relate to being a billionaire playboy with unlimited resources? In contrast, Superman grew up in small-town, working-class America. He is as much Clark Kent as he is Superman.

    People call him a "boy scout," as if that’s a flaw. But that misses the point. The fact that he has the power to rule the world and chooses not to, is what makes him extraordinary. He sets an ideal for people to strive for.

    Yes, in the hands of a bad writer he can become a walking deus ex machina. But in the hands of a good writer, Superman becomes the core of some of the most powerful and iconic stories in comics. His greatness doesn’t come from what he can do, it comes from the choices he makes.

    Superman has the ability to remove Capitalists from power and chooses not to. That is why I don't care for Superman.

      For me it was the radio and that a lot of their popular songs sound the same-ish (not hard to do with that voice). The radio has ruined a lot of bands for me simply by having a 40 minute playlist on repeat. Like The Killers.

        Vlogging is not vanity. It’s a special way to capture memories to share with others currently. And to view yourself and others in a time capsule, a stasis where you can view the old world

        I want to view my vlogs as an elder and appreciate my memories, even more than I thought I did when I filmed them

          He doesn't live in our reality. He was also invented at a time when government functioned at least somewhat, and social progress was being made.

            It's a good one. That one and All-Star Superman are the two I always recommend to people.

            All star Superman the DC movie is easily the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. Every moment is dumber than the one before it. I laughed so hard I nearly died. Seriously go get messed up and watch it with your friends!

              Speed Racer (2008)

              Uniquely colorful, silly, wholesome, every single one of its frames oozes style and creativity. It's exactly what an animated adaptation should aim to be and will forever stand out against the blue and orange, brown and bloom palettes that plagued that era of media.

              It's simply so visually exciting and fun.

                High school of the Dead. I watched the anime because of that titty/bullet gif. I freaking loved that show. Not so much the piss scene, but still.

                  Saving money. I take pride in doing my research and getting the best deal instead of just stumbling into the first store I come across and paying for whatever the sales person talks me into. The latter wouldn't even hurt me financially, it's just a thing of principle.

                    Idk I'm 50/50 in this one. I feel the production of video can have negative effects on being present in the moment and enjoying things while they happen instead of looking back nostalgically

                      It definitely wasn't one of DC's best adaptions. They really tried to squeeze too much in for the run time. They totally could have dropped the whole Atlas and Samson thing and concentrated more on the main story.

                            They just got played to death on the radio and his voice is pretty distinctive so all the songs sound the same. And it's a bandwagon thing.

                              If that's your motive sure. If your motive is to become a social media influncer then...no.

                                Have you had the banana cream Twinkies? Probably not as good as the OG ones, but definitely a nice treat when you come across them!

                                drizzle some chocolate syrup on one on a stupidly large plate and sell it in Manhattan for $38.

                                      I literally have one, why does someone have to say that every time. There are reasons to have a truck.

                                      If the reason is a small dick complex, sure.
                                      And also a disregard for safety and the energy consumption ending up costing way more for the American worker.

                                        Ok, but it's clearly not. On more than one occasion, I've loaded up large appliances or furniture with a van only to learn that it won't fit through the back hatch, or there are cubbies and curves inside that cut the corners. Even if you have plenty of empty space inside, you have to fit it through a smaller keyhole. I have been stuck with a half empty back and a tied down hatch because the opening wasn't big enough to get the whole thing in.

                                        With an open bed truck you can just drop the tailgate or drop it in from above.

                                        I can tell you have a real hard on for vans, but just ignoring facts because they don't fit your stance is ignorant. I've never even owned a truck, so I don't care about defending their honor or any bullshit like that, but you have to give them credit where it's due, and they haul like nothing else, even vans.

                                        For that furniture there's a thing called dismantling them and reassembling them, though. And one can also always rent a load carrier for the back, for those few days. Cheaper on the long term.

                                          Never knew it was French, really good work! Also never realized how many episodes there were, might be worth a revisit...
